Further, in the present embodiment, the filter device and the drying device are integrally provided as the filter-drier 10, and the filter-drier 10 is a device that can realize both the drying function and the filtering function, and can reduce the number of components in the refrigerant circulation system and reduce the cost. In other embodiments, the drying device and the filtering device can also be provided as different devices, respectively. Since the drying device, the filtering device and the filter-drier 10 are conventional devices in the art, mature devices in the prior art can be adopted, and the structure thereof is not described in detail in this embodiment.
Further, for detecting the water content of the refrigerant in the refrigerant circulating system, a communicating pipe between the port C2 and the electronic expansion valve 12 is provided with a liquid viewing mirror 11, the liquid viewing mirror 11 can monitor the refrigerant filling amount in the refrigerant circulating system on the one hand, and can detect the water content in the refrigerant on the other hand, so that the state of the refrigerant can be detected, the refrigerant is dried, added and subtracted or purified in time, and the heat exchange efficiency of the refrigerant is improved. More preferably, in the present embodiment, a sight glass 11 is disposed between the dry filter 10 and the electronic expansion valve 12 to monitor the liquid refrigerant after being dried and filtered.
The embodiment also provides an air conditioner comprising the refrigerant circulating system.
It is to be noted that the foregoing is only illustrative of the preferred embodiments of the present invention and the technical principles employed. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the particular embodiments described herein, but is capable of various obvious changes, rearrangements and substitutions as will now become apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in greater detail by the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may include other equivalent embodiments without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
