Sporlan Controls 163428 5/8X7/8Odf,R-22 15Ton Thermal Expansion Valve(Txv) 5'
The Sporlan Controls 163428 is a 5/8 inch by 7/8 inch ODF thermostatic expansion valve intended for use in 15-ton HVAC systems containing R-22 refrigerant. The TXV, also known as a thermal expansion valve, is a critical component of an air conditioning system that regulates refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil. This regulated flow maximizes system efficiency and temperature management. The valve responds to the temperature of the refrigerant, automatically changing the flow to prevent the evaporator coil from overfeeding with liquid refrigerant, which can cause inefficiencies and damage. The 5-foot pre-attached tubing facilitates the installation and connection of other system components.
