Rheem-Ruud 61-106238-41 TXV

The Rheem-Ruud 61-106238-41 TXV is a precision-engineered Thermostatic Expansion Valve designed for high-performance refrigerant metering in residential and light commercial cooling systems. This 2-ton R-22 expansion valve features a 1/2" x 1/2" connection size and a 30-inch capillary tube, ensuring optimal superheat control across varying evaporator loads. As the direct replacement for 61-21922-57, this valve is critical for maintaining system efficiency and preventing liquid slugging in older R-22 air conditioning units. For technicians performing retrofits or repairs, utilizing a genuine OEM Rheem-Ruud part ensures exact fitment and pressure ratings without the need for extensive line modifications. This HVAC expansion valve is built to handle the specific pressure-temperature relationship of R-22 refrigerant, providing stable modulation even during high ambient temperature conditions. Proper installation of this valve restores intended SEER performance and protects the compressor by maintaining consistent refrigerant flow through the coil.

• Precise Superheat Control: Maintains optimal refrigerant saturation to maximize heat transfer across the evaporator.
• Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered as a drop-in 61-106238-41 replacement for the legacy 61-21922-57 valve.
• Internal Equalization: Designed specifically for R-22 systems requiring a 2-ton capacity rating.
• Industrial Build Quality: Features a 30-inch capillary line for flexible positioning and vibration resistance.

Is this TXV compatible with R-410A systems?
No, the 61-106238-41 is strictly calibrated for the pressure-temperature characteristics of R-22 refrigerant. Using it with R-410A will lead to incorrect metering and potential system failure.

What are the connection sizes for this valve?
This valve features a 1/2 inch inlet and a 1/2 inch outlet, designed for standard solder connections in 2-ton cooling circuits.

Does this valve replace the 61-21922-57?
Yes, this is the official manufacturer-designated superseding part for the 61-21922-57, meeting or exceeding all original technical specifications.
