Description
The Rheem-Ruud KT-45-ZGA is a replacement power head designed for use with thermostatic expansion valves (TXV) in R-410A refrigerant systems. Engineered to OEM specifications, this power head restores precise refrigerant metering and superheat control to your system, helping maintain optimal efficiency and protecting the compressor from liquid slugging.
Product Overview
The power head is the sensing element of a thermostatic expansion valve assembly. It responds to suction line temperature and pressure conditions to modulate refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil. The KT-45-ZGA is specifically calibrated for R-410A refrigerant, making it a direct-fit replacement for compatible Rheem and Ruud equipment.
Key Features
- OEM replacement power head for Rheem and Ruud TXV assemblies
- Calibrated for R-410A (HFC) refrigerant systems
- Restores accurate superheat control and refrigerant metering
- Helps protect compressor from liquid refrigerant slugging
- Direct-fit replacement to simplify installation and reduce labor time

Why Replace the Power Head?
A failed or sluggish TXV power head can cause symptoms such as poor cooling performance, high superheat, low suction pressure, or compressor damage. Replacing the power head — rather than the entire TXV assembly — is a cost-effective service solution that restores system performance quickly.
