Heil Quaker ICP 1183683 Piston

Heil Quaker ICP 1183683 Piston

When you are out on a service call for an 18-series single-stage split system, precise refrigerant metering is non-negotiable. The Heil Quaker ICP 1183683 Piston is a specific #049 fixed orifice expansion device designed for 1.5-ton R-410A applications. This genuine OEM HVAC piston ensures the evaporator coil maintains the correct superheat, preventing liquid slugging and protecting the compressor. Fabricated from high-grade brass, this 0.049 refrigerant flow control component is engineered to handle the high-pressure environment of 13 SEER and 14 SEER heat pumps and air conditioners. As a veteran technician knows, using a generic orifice can lead to capacity loss and inefficient heat transfer. This ICP 1183681 replacement (size-specific) fits a wide range of fancoils and outdoor units from Tempstar, Comfortmaker, Arcoaire, and KeepRite. Whether you are performing a residential HVAC repair or a system match-up, ensuring the piston size matches the outdoor unit rating plate is critical for achieving AHRI-rated efficiency.

Key Benefits
  • Precise Metering: Specifically sized at .049 to regulate refrigerant flow for 18,000 BTU systems.
  • R-410A Optimized: Designed to withstand the higher operating pressures of modern refrigerants.
  • OEM Standards: Guaranteed compatibility with International Comfort Products (ICP) equipment, including C4A3 and H4H3 series.
  • System Reliability: Helps maintain optimal evaporator temperatures and prevents ice-up or compressor overheating.
  • Durable Brass Construction: Resists corrosion and mechanical wear over long-term system operation.
Common Questions

What tonnage is the #049 piston designed for?
The 1183683 (#049) piston is typically used for 1.5-ton (18,000 BTU) residential air conditioning and heat pump systems.

Is this piston compatible with R-22 systems?
No, this piston is specifically sized and engineered for the pressure-temperature relationships of R-410A systems.

Where is the piston usually located during installation?
In most ICP fancoils, the piston is located within the liquid line distributor assembly at the evaporator coil inlet.
