York S1-022-12988-000 TXV
The York S1-022-12988-000 TXV is a precision-engineered 3-ton Chatleff thermal expansion valve specifically calibrated for R-410A refrigerant systems. Featuring a 30-inch capillary tube, this OEM York expansion valve functions as the critical metering device required to maintain an optimal 12°F superheat at the evaporator outlet, preventing liquid floodback and protecting the compressor. Designed with a standard Chatleff fitting for secure, leak-resistant mechanical connections, it eliminates the need for field-brazing at the valve body, reducing the risk of internal heat damage. This 3-ton TXV is a direct OEM replacement for York central air conditioning units, split systems, and light commercial rooftop units. By modulating refrigerant mass flow in response to heat load changes, it ensures the evaporator remains fully active across varying ambient conditions, maximizing SEER efficiency and system dehumidification capacity.
Key Benefits:
- Precise Refrigerant Metering: Automatically adjusts flow to maintain target superheat, ensuring peak cooling efficiency.
- OEM Compatibility: Genuine York S1-022-12988-000 replacement ensures exact fitment for 3-ton air handlers and evaporator coils.
- Chatleff Connection: Features a mechanical Chatleff fitting for faster, more reliable installation in tight plenums.
- Optimized for R-410A: Factory-set for the high-pressure characteristics of R-410A systems.
- System Protection: Acts as a safeguard against compressor slugging by controlling liquid injection.
Common Questions:
Does this TXV require a hard start kit?
When upgrading a system from a fixed orifice to a York S1-022-12988-000 TXV, it is industry standard to install a hard start capacitor. This provides the necessary torque for the compressor to overcome higher head pressures during startup against a closed expansion valve.
Can I use this valve on an R-22 system?
No, this part is specifically designed for R-410A refrigerant. Using an R-410A TXV on an R-22 system will result in improper metering and potential system failure due to differing pressure-temperature relationships.
Where should the sensing bulb be mounted?
For optimal performance, the 30-inch capillary sensing bulb should be secured to the horizontal suction line near the evaporator outlet at the 10 o'clock or 2 o'clock position, then thoroughly insulated to prevent ambient air bias.
