Rheem-Ruud PD619061 Expansion Valve Kit
The Rheem-Ruud PD619061 Expansion Valve Kit is a critical OEM replacement TXV designed for precise refrigerant metering in specialized R-22 cooling systems. As a direct replacement for RXCT-EBA, this 3-ton thermostatic expansion valve ensures optimal superheat control and evaporator efficiency. Engineered for high-performance HVAC platforms, the PD619061 utilizes an external equalizer to compensate for pressure drops across the coil, preventing compressor slugging and evaporator freeze-ups. This comprehensive kit features a 30-inch capillary tube and includes the TXV assembly, liquid line hardware, mounting bulbs, and specialized anti-seize compound required for a professional-grade installation. For contractors servicing mid-sized residential or light commercial units, this assembly provides the exact flow characteristics needed to restore factory-spec SEER performance without the guesswork of universal aftermarket alternatives.
