Use it as part of an expansion system when replacing existing equipment, or in new applications using the R-22 refrigerant that this item accepts.

A 1/4" expansion valve limits the refrigerant flow to the evaporator. It controls temperature and pressure of the liquid refrigerant in the evaporator, for example, liquid refrigerant will not back pressure to the compressor when the suction is reduced. In addition it can prevent liquid refrigerant leak out, it has self-charge compensation function.

A Lennox® expansion valve is a component of your air conditioning system that maintains the correct amount of refrigerant circulating in the system. Over time, as gases get used up, they need to be replaced. This part is an exact replacement for a damaged or malfunctioning current expansion valve

Designed to work with Lennox air conditioning systems, this expansion valve comes in a durable stainless steel and plastic housing, and serves to reduce pressure and temperature extremes.

Expansion valves provide several advantages over other expansion methods. Because the refrigerant flows in a back-and-forth pattern through the valve, it is evenly cooled. It provides more efficient control of unwanted superheating and subcooling of the refrigerant, which results in closer control of discharge temperatures and reduced energy consumption, leading to improved system performance and longer component life. The valves must be properly sized for the system capacity to avoid under- or over-charging.
