Description
The Trane VAL8987 is a Thermal Expansion Valve (TXV), or metering device, for use in systems employing R-410A refrigerant. It has the main function of controlling the circulation of refrigerant in the system. It is more like a valve through which the amount of water to be supplied in a pipe is regulated. While in the HVAC system the TXV controls the flow rate of the refrigerant that is fed to the evaporator coil to uphold efficiency in cooling. The valve has an ODS connection and the inlet and outlet sizes are 5/8” and 3/8” respectively.
