Description
The Copeland 062718 is a heavy-duty, externally equalized Thermal Expansion Valve (TXV) engineered for reliable refrigerant metering in medium-temperature commercial HVAC and refrigeration systems. Carrying Copeland’s TRAE+ series designation (Model TRAE+ 10 HC 5FT 5/8 X 7/8 ODF S/T), this valve is purpose-built for 10-ton capacity applications and is compatible with both R-22 and R-407C refrigerants, making it a versatile choice for new installations and retrofit projects alike.
The straight-body design with sweat (ODF) connections simplifies field installation, while the 5-foot capillary tube provides flexible bulb placement for accurate sensing across a wide range of evaporator configurations. External equalization ensures precise superheat control even in systems with higher pressure drops across the evaporator, delivering consistent performance and protecting the compressor from liquid slugging.
