Description
The Copeland BFK164 (SKU 043335) is a bi-directional liquid line filter drier engineered to protect refrigeration and air conditioning systems from moisture, acid, and particulate contamination. Its bi-directional flow design makes it an ideal choice for heat pump applications and reversing-cycle systems where refrigerant flow direction alternates between heating and cooling modes.
Key Features
- Bi-directional flow design — compatible with heat pump and reversing-cycle systems
- 1/2″ flare connections for straightforward field installation
- 16 cubic inch desiccant capacity for effective moisture and acid removal
- 40-micron filtration to capture particulates and protect system components
- 680 PSI maximum working pressure for use across a wide range of refrigerants and system pressures
- Compact, durable construction suited for residential and light commercial HVAC/R applications

Application
The BFK164 filter drier is designed for installation in the liquid line of heat pump systems and other HVAC/R applications requiring bi-directional refrigerant flow. It effectively removes moisture, acid, and solid contaminants that can cause system degradation, compressor damage, and reduced efficiency. The 40-micron filter core traps debris from brazing, installation, and normal system wear, while the desiccant core continuously absorbs moisture to maintain system integrity.
