Supco A2 Valve
The Supco A2 Valve is a professional-grade line tap valve engineered for field technicians requiring reliable refrigerant access on larger tubing sizes. Specifically designed to fit 1/2" and 5/8" OD tubing, this part serves as the direct updated version for 6101, providing a more robust sealing profile for critical HVACR applications. Unlike standard piercing valves, the A2 line piercing valve features a patented internal needle retracting mechanism and a specialized compound O-ring to ensure a leak-proof seal during refrigerant charging or system recovery. Rated for a maximum operating pressure of 800 PSI, it remains compatible with all standard refrigerants, including R-410A. The package includes a hex wrench and precisely machined adapter sleeves, allowing for a secure, clamp-on installation without the need for line evacuation or soldering. Its heavy-duty construction makes it a reliable choice for permanent use on residential and commercial cooling systems where high-side or low-side access is required.
Key Benefits:- Universal Compatibility: Fully compatible with all common refrigerants and high-pressure systems up to 800 PSI.
- Direct Replacement: Engineered as the superior secondary update for the legacy 6101 tap valve.
- Solderless Access: Provides immediate system entry on 1/2 inch and 5/8 inch copper tubing without the need for recovery or torches.
- Leak Protection: Utilizes a high-performance O-ring and patented depressor valve action to prevent refrigerant loss during and after installation.
- Complete Kit: Ships with all necessary adapter sleeves and a hex key wrench for immediate field deployment.
Can the A2 valve be used on 3/8" lines?
No, the Supco A2 is specifically sized for 1/2" and 5/8" OD tubing. For smaller lines like 1/4", 5/16", or 3/8", the Supco A1 or BPV31 series should be utilized instead.
Is this valve rated for R-410A systems?
Yes, with an 800 PSI rating, this piercing access valve is suitable for high-pressure R-410A applications as well as standard R-22 and R-134a systems.
Do I need to remove the valve after service?
While designed for permanent installation with a retracting needle, many veteran technicians recommend as a best practice to install a permanent access fitting if the system will undergo frequent high-vibration cycles over many years.
