Emerson Alco 049163 Solenoid Valve
Standardize your refrigeration and air conditioning systems with the Emerson Alco 049163 Solenoid Valve, a high-performance 2-way normally closed pilot-operated component. Engineered for liquid line, suction gas, and discharge gas service, this 200RB4T4T model features 1/2 inch ODF sweat extended ends, allowing for rapid brazing without dismantling the internal valve assembly. As the direct replacement for 047518, it includes a pre-installed mounting stud for secure installation in high-vibration commercial environments.
This pilot operated refrigeration solenoid valve is optimized for high-capacity systems, delivering a nominal liquid capacity of 8.0 tons for R22 and 6.0 tons for R134a. Built to handle a maximum working pressure of 680 psig and fluid temperatures up to 250°F, its PTFE O-ring and long-life molded coil compatibility ensure a superior external seal and consistent magnetic actuation. The 200RB series modularity means one coil fits all valve sizes, streamlining your truck stock and reducing downtime during field repairs.
Key Benefits for Contractors:- Universal Coil Compatibility: Uses standard ASC2 or AMG coils, allowing a single coil type to service multiple valve bodies in the 200RB line.
- Direct Retrofit: Seamlessly replaces the legacy 047518 model, including the essential mounting stud for immediate bolt-on application.
- Brazing Efficiency: Extended copper ends dissipate heat effectively, protecting internal seats and seals during the sweat connection process.
- Multi-Refrigerant Support: Rated for use with R22, R134a, R404A, R507, and other common A1 class refrigerants.
- Superior Sealing: Features a high-grade PTFE O-ring to prevent external leaks and resist chemical degradation from oil and refrigerant mixtures.
- Is this valve compatible with R410A systems? Yes, the 200RB4T4T is rated for a maximum working pressure of 680 psig, making it suitable for modern high-pressure R410A applications.
- Does this unit include the solenoid coil? No, this is a Valve Less Coil (VLC) body. You must pair it with a compatible Emerson ASC2, DM, or AM series coil based on your system voltage requirements.
- Can I use this for bi-flow heat pump applications? While the standard 049163 is a directional valve, it can be converted for bi-flow operation using a KS30293 kit, though factory-assembled bi-flow versions are typically preferred for new installs.
