Description
The Henry Technologies 896A-5/8S is a 5/8″ ODS “Y” Strainer engineered to protect critical refrigeration system components — including expansion valves, solenoid valves, and flow controls — from damaging particulates, scale, and debris circulating in the refrigerant line.
Product Overview
Designed for use in refrigeration and air conditioning systems, this Y-type strainer features a copper ODS (Outside Diameter Sweat) connection for easy, leak-free installation using standard brazing techniques. The “Y” body configuration allows for convenient inline installation while providing accessible cleanout without full line disassembly.
Key Features
- 5/8″ ODS sweat connections for reliable brazed installation
- “Y” strainer body design for efficient debris capture and easy serviceability
- Protects downstream components such as TXVs, solenoid valves, and metering devices
- Durable construction suitable for refrigeration and air conditioning applications
- Compact, inline design minimizes installation space requirements
- Henry Technologies quality — a trusted name in refrigeration system protection
Typical Applications
- Commercial refrigeration systems
- Air conditioning liquid and suction lines
- Upstream protection for expansion valves and flow controls
- Heat pump systems
Why Use a Y Strainer?
Installing a Y strainer upstream of sensitive refrigeration components is a best practice that extends equipment life and reduces service calls. By capturing particulates and debris before they reach metering devices or compressors, the 896A-5/8S helps maintain system efficiency and prevents costly component failures.
