Carrier EA52PT055 Piston
The Carrier EA52PT055 Piston is a precision-engineered #55 fixed orifice metering device designed to regulate refrigerant flow within the evaporator coil. As a critical component in residential HVAC systems, this bi-metal piston utilizes a specific 1.397 mm internal bore diameter to ensure accurate pressure drops and optimal heat transfer. Built to the exact standards of Carrier OEM parts, this piston is essential for technicians performing a cooling system tune-up or attending to emergency AC service calls where precise superheat settings are required for system balance.
Constructed as a black metallic cylinder measuring 0.5 inches in length, the EA52PT055 is a refrigerant metering piston used primarily in Carrier, Bryant, and Payne equipment. This HVAC replacement part is compatible with both sweat and braze connection types. Unlike adjustable valves, this fixed orifice provides a reliable, cost-effective solution for systems with stable operating loads, maintaining the cooling capacity and energy efficiency of the original factory configuration.
Key Benefits:- OEM Precision: Genuine Carrier EA52PT055 ensures exact tolerances for #55 orifice requirements, preventing overfeeding or liquid slugging.
- System Compatibility: Designed for seamless integration into Carrier, Bryant, and Payne AC installation projects using standard piston housings.
- Durable Bi-Metal Build: Reliable construction stands up to the thermal stresses of repeated cycling in residential HVAC systems.
- Simplified Service: Facilitates standard AC maintenance and charging using the superheat method for accurate refrigerant levels.
- What does the #55 size indicate? The number 55 refers to an internal orifice diameter of 0.055 inches (1.397 mm), which determines the specific flow rate for the matched evaporator and condenser capacity.
- How do I ensure the piston is seated correctly? During installation, verify that the metering piston slides freely in the housing and seats firmly against the matching surface to prevent refrigerant bypass.
- Is this compatible with heat pumps? Yes, this piston can be used in heat pump systems where the indoor or outdoor unit requires an EA52PT055 size for specific heating or cooling modes.
