Application & Benefits
The external equalizer port ensures accurate superheat control even in systems with significant pressure drop across the evaporator, making this TXV ideal for multi-circuit or longer evaporator coil configurations. The 5-foot capillary tube provides installation flexibility, allowing the sensing bulb to be positioned precisely at the evaporator outlet. The 1/4″ SAE flare connection simplifies field installation and ensures a secure, leak-free seal. Dual refrigerant compatibility with R22 and R407C makes this valve a versatile choice for both legacy systems and R407C retrofit applications.
