York 028-13849-000 Gasket O'Ring

The York 028-13849-000 is an essential HVAC O-ring seal engineered for high-pressure industrial environments, specifically within York centrifugal chiller systems. As a genuine York OEM replacement part, this gasket is manufactured to precise tolerances to ensure a hermetic seal at critical connection points, such as compressor housings, oil piping, or heat exchanger interfaces. These chiller maintenance gaskets are fabricated from high-grade synthetic elastomers designed to resist degradation when exposed to common refrigerants and lubricants, including POE and mineral oils. Utilizing a 028-13849-000 during routine service intervals prevents refrigerant migration and moisture ingress, which are primary drivers of system acidification and mechanical wear. For service technicians, this high-performance elastomeric seal provides the necessary durometer and chemical resistance to maintain a reliable vacuum under varying thermal loads. Correct installation requires ensuring the groove is free of debris and lightly lubricated with system-compatible oil to prevent twisting or binding during assembly.

Key Benefits

• Engineered for precise fitment in York chiller compressor and fluid assemblies.
• Exceptional chemical resistance against industrial refrigerants and refrigeration oils.
• Maintains cross-sectional integrity under extreme thermal cycling conditions.
• Prevents costly refrigerant leaks and maintains system vacuum levels.

Common Questions

What systems utilize the York 028-13849-000? This O-ring is primarily used in York/Johnson Controls centrifugal chillers and large-scale screw compressor units where high-integrity sealing is mandatory.

Can I use a generic O-ring instead of this OEM part? Generic seals often lack the specific durometer and chemical compatibility required for HVACR applications; using this OEM component ensures the material can withstand the specific pressures and oils within the system.

Is this part compatible with R-134a and R-123 systems? Yes, the material properties of this O-ring are designed to be compatible with standard industrial refrigerants and their associated lubricant packages.
