Copeland Comfort Control (Alco) 058582 Expansion Valve
The Copeland Comfort Control (Alco) 058582 is a professional-grade T-Series Take-Apart expansion valve engineered for high-capacity R-22 refrigerant systems. This TER22-HW100 model is specifically designed for 22-ton capacity applications requiring a medium temperature charge. As a modular thermal expansion valve (TXV), it features a take-apart design that allows for rapid field servicing, including the replacement of internal cages and power assemblies without de-brazing the entire unit. The external superheat adjustment provides technicians with precise control over evaporator efficiency, while the 10-foot capillary tube ensures mounting flexibility in complex mechanical layouts. This valve is supplied less flange and is built with a stainless steel power assembly to resist corrosion and ensure long-term refrigerant flow control in demanding HVAC and refrigeration systems. With a maximum working pressure of 450 psig, it meets the rigorous standards required for industrial and commercial retrofits or OEM replacements.
Key Benefits for Contractors:- Flexible Installation: Features a 10-foot capillary tube for versatile bulb placement in cramped evaporator sections.
- Serviceable Design: The take-apart construction allows for quick component swaps, reducing downtime during maintenance calls.
- Precise Tuning: External superheat adjustment allows for fine-tuning the system to optimal medium temperature charge parameters.
- High-Capacity Performance: Rated for 22-ton capacity, making it ideal for large-scale air conditioning and heat pump applications.
- Bi-flow Capability: Supports bi-flow performance, which is critical for heat pump applications and complex piping circuits.
Is the flange included with the 058582?
No, this model is sold less flange. You must utilize existing flanges or purchase the appropriate Alco body flange separately for a complete installation.
What are the torque specifications for the bolts?
Technicians should tighten the take-apart expansion valve bolts to 300 in-lb to ensure a leak-proof seal and maintain structural integrity.
Can this valve be used with refrigerants other than R-22?
This specific TER22-HW100 is calibrated for R-22 refrigerant. Using it with other refrigerants may lead to improper superheat control and potential compressor damage.
