It should not be exposed to any kind of moisture,what you can do is if its off the car use a couple cans of brake clean,and then compressed air to dry it off,you wonna make sure clean fluid comes out the other end so you know its properly cleaned.

Use A/C solvent from a parts store and compressed air. You do not want to put any A/C component near water or a humid environment.

Use a vacuum pump after installation to boil off any cleaner still in the system, and recharge.
