Carrier EA36YP020 Expansion Valve

The Carrier EA36YP020 Expansion Valve is a critical precision metering device designed to maintain the optimal superheat within Carrier, Bryant, and Payne evaporator coils. This thermal expansion valve (TXV) utilizes a 3/8-inch ODF inlet and a 1/2-inch ODF outlet, providing a robust mechanical connection for high-pressure R-410A refrigerant systems. As a genuine OEM HVAC part, the EA36YP020 ensures proper refrigerant flow modulation, preventing liquid slugging and protecting the compressor from premature failure. For contractors performing a TXV replacement, this component is essential for restoring system efficiency and ensuring the evaporator operates at the correct saturation temperature. This valve is engineered to handle variable load conditions, making it a reliable choice for maintaining precise humidity control and cooling capacity in residential and light commercial split systems.

• OEM Compatibility: Specifically engineered for Carrier EA36YP020 applications to ensure exact fitment and pressure regulation.
• Precision Metering: Maintains consistent refrigerant flow control to optimize heat transfer across the evaporator fins.
• Durable Construction: Built to withstand high-side pressures and thermal cycling common in 13+ SEER high-efficiency AC cooling systems.
• System Protection: Actively monitors suction line temperature to prevent unevaporated refrigerant from entering the compressor.

Is the Carrier EA36YP020 compatible with R-22 systems?
No, this TXV valve is specifically calibrated for the pressure-temperature characteristics of R-410A refrigerant and should not be used in R-22 retrofits.

Does this valve include the sensing bulb and mounting hardware?
Yes, it includes the integrated sensing bulb required for accurate thermal expansion monitoring of the suction line.

What are the connection sizes for this specific expansion valve?
The EA36YP020 features 3/8" ODF inlet and 1/2" ODF outlet connections for standard brazed installations.
