Transtar ACA/C Receiver Drier / Desiccant ElementPart #: ACR-0162

An automotive A/C receiver drier is a component that is used in a vehicle's air conditioning system to filter and remove moisture from the refrigerant. The desiccant element, also known as a "dessicant bag" or "moisture absorber," is a small bag or container filled with a substance that absorbs moisture, such as silica gel. It is typically located within the receiver drier and works to remove any remaining moisture from the refrigerant before it enters the rest of the A/C system. This helps to prevent the formation of corrosive acids and other contaminants that can damage the system and reduce its performance.
