Heil Quaker ICP 1176348 TXV Kit
The Heil Quaker ICP 1176348 TXV Kit is a precision-engineered OEM replacement part designed for high-efficiency refrigerant metering in residential and light commercial systems. This R410A thermal expansion valve is specifically calibrated for 3-ton capacity air handlers and evaporator coils across the International Comfort Products (ICP) family, including brands like Comfortmaker, Tempstar, and Arcoaire. As a non-bleed TXV, it maintains a tight seal during the off-cycle to prevent pressure equalization, ensuring immediate cooling performance upon system startup. The kit includes the bolt-on expansion valve, sensing bulb with stainless steel clamps, and necessary PTFE washers for a leak-proof mechanical connection. This HVAC expansion valve kit is critical for technicians performing R22 to R410A conversions or replacing failed fixed-orifice pistons to improve SEER ratings and evaporator humidity removal. By modulating refrigerant flow based on superheat, the ICP 1176348 protects the compressor from liquid slugging while maximizing heat exchange efficiency.
Key Benefits- Precise Superheat Control: Automatically adjusts refrigerant flow to maintain optimal evaporator performance under varying load conditions.
- OEM Compatibility: Direct-fit ICP replacement part for FSAC02TXVX mainline kits, ensuring seamless integration with original equipment.
- Enhanced Efficiency: Replaces standard pistons to provide better HVAC system performance and more consistent indoor temperature control.
- Complete Installation Kit: Includes sensing bulb insulation and mechanical fittings to simplify field service without requiring specialized brazing at the valve body.
Is this TXV compatible with older R22 systems?
No, this valve is strictly designed for R410A refrigerant. Using it with R22 will result in improper metering and potential compressor damage due to different pressure-temperature characteristics.
Does this kit require a hard start kit?
Because this is a non-bleed TXV, it does not allow pressures to equalize during the off-cycle. If your outdoor unit uses a reciprocating compressor, an external hard start kit is highly recommended to assist with high-torque startups.
Where should the sensing bulb be mounted?
The bulb must be securely clamped to a horizontal run of the suction line at the 10 o'clock or 2 o'clock position, at least 8 inches from the coil manifold, to ensure accurate temperature sensing.
