Application & Fit
Sunair ARD-1070 is a steel inline receiver drier designed for heavy-duty and bus air-conditioning systems. With an approximate 75 mm diameter and 295 mm overall length, it provides a compact, medium-length form factor that installs directly in the liquid line. Both ends use 1/2 in male O-ring (MIO) connections, aligning with common hose and tube interfaces used across bus HVAC plumbing. This configuration offers a straightforward replacement option when an inline drier with 1/2 in MIO fittings is specified.
Performance & Serviceability
The ARD-1070 incorporates an internal desiccant charge of approximately 205 g to absorb moisture from the refrigerant stream, helping maintain refrigerant cleanliness and supporting reliable operation of compressors, expansion valves, and other components. An integral sight glass/moisture indicator on the body enables basic visual checks of refrigerant condition during service without disassembly. The durable steel housing withstands mobile A/C environments, while the balanced size-to-capacity ratio makes it a practical choice for heavy-duty and bus fleets seeking consistent, serviceable moisture control in the liquid line.
