  • $22.00


The York S1-026-23209-000 Distributor Assembly is a critical OEM component engineered for precise refrigerant distribution within residential HVAC evaporators and split system cooling coils. This 2-tube distributor is designed to replace aging or restricted assemblies, ensuring balanced mass flow across all circuit paths to maintain optimal superheat and prevent liquid floodback to the compressor. Constructed from industrial-grade brazing alloy, it facilitates a robust connection within the DX refrigeration circuit, accommodating standard capillary tubing and liquid line sizes common in York, Luxaire, and Coleman equipment. For technicians performing refrigerant circuit repairs or evaporator coil maintenance, this assembly provides the exact factory tolerances required to restore HVAC system efficiency and evaporator heat transfer coefficients without the flow imbalances often found in aftermarket universal alternatives.

Key Benefits for Technicians
  • Factory-Calibrated Flow: Ensures uniform refrigerant saturation across the evaporator coil circuits, preventing hot spots and improving latent cooling capacity.
  • OEM Compatibility: Exact drop-in replacement for York S1-026-23209-000, eliminating the need for field modifications or line-set re-routing.
  • Enhanced Durability: High-integrity construction resists fatigue from thermal expansion and vibration within the condensing unit or air handler.
  • Optimized ?T: Facilitates correct pressure drops across the distribution network to achieve specified temperature differentials.
Common Technician Questions

What are the symptoms of a failing York distributor assembly?
Internal restrictions or uneven distribution usually manifest as localized frosting on specific coil circuits or improper superheat readings that cannot be corrected by the TXV alone.

Is this assembly compatible with R-410A and R-22 systems?
Yes, this HVAC distributor is designed to handle the operating pressures and oil requirements of both high-pressure R-410A systems and legacy R-22 installations.

Does this part require a specific brazing technique?
Standard nitrogen-purged brazing practices should be followed to prevent internal oxidation and scale, which can clog the small-diameter distribution tubes.
