Copeland Comfort Control (Alco) 038934 Repair Kit

The Copeland Comfort Control (Alco) 038934 Repair Kit, also identified as the Model K-1177, is a specialized field-service solution designed for high-performance maintenance of White-Rodgers 210CA 1" Series solenoid valves. This solenoid valve rebuild kit includes all necessary internal components to address common failure points such as weeping or failure to shift in refrigeration and air conditioning circuits. Featuring a Buna-N (Nitrile) seat, the assembly provides excellent chemical resistance and a positive seal in low-to-medium temperature applications. As an OEM-grade solenoid valve repair kit, it ensures proper plunger stroke and spring tension, fundamental for maintaining the volumetric efficiency of the system. For contractors servicing liquid or suction lines, using the Alco K-1177 kit allows for a complete internal overhaul without the need to sweat a new valve body into the piping, significantly reducing labor time and system downtime.

Key Benefits

• Direct Compatibility: Specifically engineered for 210CA 1" Series valves, ensuring precision fit and factory-spec flow coefficients.
• High-Grade Seals: The Buna-N seat material is optimized for standard refrigerants and oils, preventing premature degradation and internal leakage.
• Complete Internals: Includes the plunger and necessary components to restore the valve to its original operating pressure differential.
• Cost-Effective Maintenance: Eliminates the requirement for full valve replacement, preserving the integrity of existing solder joints.

Common Questions

What causes a 210CA series valve to fail to close?
Internal debris or a worn Buna-N seat are the primary causes of "weeping" or failure to close completely. Installing the Model K-1177 repair kit restores the sealing surface and ensures the plunger seats correctly under spring pressure.

Can this kit be used with high-temperature discharge lines?
This kit uses Buna-N (Nitrile), which is excellent for standard liquid and suction line temperatures. For specialized high-heat applications, verify that the fluid temperature does not exceed the elastomer's thermal rating before installation.

Is this kit interchangeable with other valve sizes?
No, the 038934 / K-1177 is specifically dimensioned for the 1" 210CA Series. Attempting to use these components in smaller or larger valve bodies will result in improper seating and potential system failure.
