Carrier 332368-763 Replacement Kit
The Carrier 332368-763 is a high-performance 3-ton R410A TXV Kit engineered for precise refrigerant metering in residential and light commercial cooling applications. This genuine OEM thermostatic expansion valve regulates flow based on evaporator load, ensuring the system maintains optimal superheat and prevents liquid slugging of the compressor. Constructed with a durable brass body and featuring NPT connections, this kit is built to handle the high-pressure demands of R410A systems. It serves as a direct technical replacement for legacy part numbers EA36YD161 and EA36YD310, making it a critical component for restoring SEER efficiency in Carrier and Payne air handlers or heat pumps. Use this kit when a standard fixed orifice or failing valve causes poor heat transfer or inconsistent cooling across the coil. The assembly includes the thermal expansion valve, sensing bulb, and necessary mounting hardware for a secure mechanical installation by a qualified technician.
Key Benefits- Precise Refrigerant Control: Optimizes 3-ton system performance by adjusting flow dynamically to match cooling demand.
- OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed to fit Carrier-family equipment, including 60Hz systems and gas furnace pairings.
- Durable Brass Construction: Resists corrosion and mechanical fatigue in high-vibration HVAC environments.
- System Efficiency: Restores factory-spec heat transfer, reducing energy consumption and strain on the R410A compressor.
Is the Carrier 332368-763 compatible with R-22 systems?
No, this specific kit is calibrated strictly for R410A refrigerant pressures and temperatures. Using it with R-22 will result in improper metering and potential system damage.
Does this kit include the sensing bulb and mounting strap?
Yes, the 332368-763 replacement kit is a comprehensive assembly that includes the TXV, the sensing bulb, and the required hardware for proper bulb insulation and attachment.
What tonnage is this expansion valve rated for?
This is a 3-ton capacity TXV. It must be matched with a 3-ton evaporator coil and condensing unit to ensure correct refrigerant saturation levels.
