[Driving Assistance] The receiver drier, a key component that protects the A/C loop by Valeo

The receiver drier is a key component of the A/C loop. It protects the system by trapping water and retaining impurities and particles. 3 differents configurations exist:
• receiver drier: between the condenser and the expansion valve
• accumulator: between the evaporator and the compressor
• cartridge: integrated to the condenser
The receiver drier needs to be replaced:
• every 3 years
• every time the loop is in opened to the air (replacement of the compressor or the condenser)
Choose Valeo receiver driers, made of the quality of the A/C specialist and check the A/C system every year.

this deserve to be above all the other videos because it explain the different accumulator, drier/receiver, and cartridge. Well done!

[@MrNuwan2007]

Very easy to understand. All thing clear. Thank you.

[@FreeAgent01]

My receiver drier may have burst from top. What may have caused ? Will replacing the drier fix problem? Do I have to change other components ?

[@xxDrain]

Great, a big help with this translation I'm doing. Translating technical terms with 0 context and no understanding of the machine can be a bitch.

[@senko_muratovic]

Awesome and easy to understand. I got here by looking to buy receiver drier for my corolla as I am changing condense, which just busted about 3 days ago, in 118 F Arizona heat. Mine is next to condenser...will see if I am worth anything.

[@benefactionhindrance]

Senko Muratovic I love Arizona. How often do you hear of a/c systems failing? Do you know of anyone who drives without a/c?

[@user-sk9hl7si7l]

@@benefactionhindrance your mom ofc

[@Slophus]

Where would I find a rod that connects from the receiver/driver to the expansion valve

[@SuperJaski]

hello I have been trying to get on to Valeo I wana purchase a compressor?

[@mikejohnson1228]

after A/C system has been professionally emptied, can an A/C receiver drier be installed and NOT have the A/C system re-pressurised for a while after, or must the system be re-pressurised within hours after install of the drier?

[@Evrenthewrencher]

What if i put the reciever drier on the suction side?

[@aquabono]

Should we also replace expansion valve when repacing compressor condensor and receiver dryer?

[@HorsepowerHouse]

Yes

[@carlosbanegas7577]
