Heil Quaker ICP 1066490 TXV
The Heil Quaker ICP 1066490 TXV is a critical 4-ton thermostatic expansion valve designed for precision refrigerant metering in high-capacity HVAC systems. Engineered specifically for R-22 refrigerant applications, this OEM component maintains optimal evaporator superheat by modulating flow based on load conditions. Featuring a 3/8" x 1/2" ODF (Outside Diameter Female) sweat connection, it ensures a secure, leak-resistant fit on the liquid and distributor lines. The integrated 39" capillary tube provides the necessary reach for flexible bulb mounting on the suction line, allowing for accurate temperature sensing and stable system performance. As a non-bleed thermal expansion valve, it effectively prevents liquid migration to the compressor during the off-cycle, protecting vital system components from premature wear. For technicians servicing Heil, Quaker, or Tempstar units, using this HVAC expansion valve replacement ensures the system operates within original manufacturing tolerances for efficiency and capacity.

Common Questions
Is this TXV compatible with R-410A systems?
No, this specific model is calibrated for R-22 refrigerant. Using it with R-410A will lead to incorrect metering and potential system failure.
What is the connection type for the ICP 1066490?
It utilizes a 3/8" x 1/2" ODF sweat connection, requiring standard brazing techniques for installation.
Does this valve include the sensing bulb strap?
Standard installations usually require a separate copper strap or stainless steel clamp to ensure the bulb has proper thermal contact with the suction line.
