  • $63.00


The Copeland Comfort Control (Alco) 053763 Power Element is a high-performance, stainless steel replacement component engineered specifically for Alco HFK, HF, and TRAE series thermostatic expansion valves. This power element, identical to part number X26300-FC-1, features a 5-foot capillary tube and is optimized for medium temperature charge applications. Designed to handle R134A and R12 refrigerant systems, it provides the precise pressure-sensing capabilities required to maintain stable superheat and protect the compressor from liquid slugging. The laser-welded diaphragm construction ensures long-term reliability against vibration and pressure fluctuations in commercial refrigeration environments.

For technicians performing a refrigerant retrofit or servicing a TXV power element replacement, the X26300-FC-1 is the industry standard for maintaining system equilibrium. Its FC charge is specifically formulated to minimize hunting and ensure rapid response to load changes in walk-in coolers and medium-temp reach-ins. By utilizing a genuine Copeland refrigeration part, contractors ensure seamless compatibility with existing Alco take-apart valve bodies, reducing labor time and preventing the recurring valve failures often seen with generic alternatives.

Key Benefits:
  • Precise Superheat Control: Optimized for medium temperature applications to ensure maximum evaporator efficiency.
  • Universal Compatibility: Fully interchangeable with Alco X26300-FC-1 and fits standard HF/HFK valve series.
  • Dual Refrigerant Support: Specifically engineered for R134A and R12 systems, ideal for legacy repairs and modernizations.
  • Durable Construction: Features a 5' capillary tube and a robust stainless steel power assembly for corrosion resistance.
  • Contractor Grade: Designed for easy field installation in commercial refrigeration units.
Common Questions:
  • Is the 053763 compatible with R404A systems? No, this specific power element is charged for R134A and R12; using it with R404A will result in improper superheat and potential system failure.
  • Can I use this to replace a power element on an HFK valve? Yes, the X26300 series is the standard replacement for Alco’s take-apart HFK and HF valve bodies.
  • What does the 'FC' charge represent? The FC charge signifies a medium temperature liquid charge, typically used in applications where the evaporator temperature stays above -10°F.
