Carrier EA02SC362 TXV Valve
The Carrier EA02SC362 TXV Valve is a critical OEM replacement part designed for precision refrigerant metering in R-22 and R-407C residential and commercial HVAC systems. This 5-ton capacity thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) features a durable brass bar stock body and utilizes a bi-metal construction to ensure accurate superheat control at the evaporator outlet. With 5/8" x 7/8" ODF sweat connections, this valve provides a secure, leak-free braze joint for technicians performing system repairs or retrofits. As a genuine Carrier part, the EA02SC362 (often cross-referenced with Sporlan SVE-5-GA) maintains consistent evaporator efficiency and prevents liquid slugging, protecting the compressor from premature failure. Its externally equalized design and 60-inch capillary tube allow for flexible mounting and precise pressure sensing, making it a reliable solution for restoring system performance and efficiency in legacy Carrier, Bryant, and Payne air handlers and heat pumps.
Key Benefits for Technicians:- Precise Superheat Management: Actively adjusts refrigerant flow based on heat load to maximize coil efficiency and prevent compressor floodback.
- OEM Compatibility: Engineered specifically for 5-ton systems, ensuring an exact fit for 39T, 48DA, and multiple other Carrier-family models.
- Robust Construction: Features a high-quality brass body and bi-metal sensing element for long-term reliability in demanding environments.
- Versatile Refrigerant Support: Validated for use with both R-22 and R-407C, supporting both maintenance of older units and modern refrigerant conversions.
- Is this valve compatible with R-410A systems? No, the EA02SC362 is strictly for use with R-22 or R-407C refrigerants due to its specific pressure-temperature charging characteristics.
- Does this TXV include the sensing bulb and mounting hardware? Yes, this thermal expansion valve kit includes the sensing bulb and capillary tube necessary for a complete installation.
- What are the connection sizes? This unit features 5/8" suction and 7/8" liquid line ODF sweat connections for standard brazing procedures.
