Abstract

A desiccant container for use in an accumulator or a receiver/dryer of a vehicle includes at least one integral mesh screen for preventing small particles from passing therethrough. Preferably, the container includes two integral mesh screens, one forming an upper surface of the desiccant container and the other forming a lower surface of the desiccant container. By incorporating integral mesh screens, the container need not include separate filters.
