Trane VAL12355 TXV
The Trane VAL12355 TXV is a critical metering component designed for precise refrigerant management in 2-ton residential and light commercial HVAC systems. This thermostatic expansion valve features a 3/8" x 1/2" connection size and utilizes a thermal actuator to monitor evaporator superheat, ensuring a stable flow of R410A refrigerant into the coil. By maintaining the correct balance of liquid and vapor, this genuine OEM Trane part protects the compressor from slugging and optimizes the thermal efficiency of the entire refrigeration circuit. Engineered for high-capacity cooling, it is a standard replacement for specific models like the GAM5 air handler. For technicians performing a system charge or repair, utilizing a factory-spec VAL12355 expansion valve is essential for achieving the intended SEER ratings and preventing premature component failure under high-demand operating conditions.
Key Benefits- Ensures precise refrigerant flow control to maintain optimal evaporator superheat and prevent compressor floodback.
- Compatible with 2-ton capacity units using R410A refrigerant for reliable heat pump and air conditioning performance.
- Features durable 3/8 inch by 1/2 inch connections for a secure fit within standard liquid and suction line configurations.
- Constructed with a rugged thermal bulb and internal components to withstand consistent pressure fluctuations.
- Reduces system downtime by providing a drop-in OEM replacement for verified Trane and American Standard equipment.
What are the connection sizes for the Trane VAL12355?
This valve features a 3/8" inlet and a 1/2" outlet, commonly utilizing a Chatleff-style or braze-on connection depending on the specific evaporator coil header design.
Is the VAL12355 TXV compatible with R22 systems?
No, this specific part is calibrated for R410A refrigerant. Using it with R22 will result in incorrect superheat readings and potential system damage.
Can this 2-ton TXV be used on a 3-ton air handler?
No, expansion valves are tonnage-sensitive. Installing a 2-ton valve on a larger system will causes starving of the evaporator, leading to high superheat and poor cooling capacity.
