Emerson Alco 060626 Repair Kit

The Emerson Alco 060626, also identified as the KS30321, is the comprehensive solenoid valve repair kit specifically engineered for the 240RA8 series of 2-way, normally closed diaphragm valves. This essential kit allows technicians to perform a full internal rebuild, restoring the refrigerant flow control integrity without the need to cut the valve body from the line. It is optimized for use in liquid, suction, and hot gas service across various HVACR applications and is compatible with modern A1 and A2L refrigerants. The kit includes a high-temperature diaphragm, plunger assembly, springs, and all necessary gaskets to eliminate solenoid valve leaking and ensure positive shut-off. Utilizing this HVAC replacement part is a cost-effective alternative to full valve replacement, particularly in high-cycle commercial refrigeration environments. By replacing worn internal components with these OEM-equivalent parts, you maintain the precise pressure drop and seating characteristics required for efficient system performance and prevent issues like coil burnout due to mechanical sticking.

Key Benefits

• Full Rebuild Capabilities: Contains all vital internals including the diaphragm, core spring, and gaskets to restore 240RA8 series valves to like-new operation.
• Broad Compatibility: Designed for use with R-22, R-134a, R-404A, R-410A, and other common refrigerants in liquid or hot gas applications.
• Zero Pipeline Interference: Specifically designed for "in-line" service, allowing for a solenoid valve repair without de-brazing the connections.
• High-Temperature Durability: Features updated diaphragm materials suitable for high-discharge temperature environments in hot gas bypass or defrost cycles.

Common Questions

This kit is specifically for the 240RA8 series. Check the valve body for the model number; if you see "240RA8" or the previous kit number KS30321, this is the exact match. Note that 060626 and KS30321 are identical parts.

A humming sound usually indicates the coil is energized but the plunger is mechanically stuck due to debris or a worn spring. This repair kit replaces those internal moving parts to resolve sticking issues.

Yes, the 240RA8 series is frequently used in suction lines for capacity control or evaporator isolation, and this kit includes the seals necessary for those low-pressure conditions.
