Danfoss 8168030 Rotolock Valve

The Danfoss 8168030 Rotolock Valve is a heavy-duty V05 service valve engineered for professional HVACR applications. As the direct replacement for the legacy 6804504 model, this component facilitates essential maintenance by allowing technicians to isolate the compressor from the rest of the refrigeration circuit. Designed with a 1-1/4" Rotolock connection and a 7/8" ODF solder connection, it provides a robust, leak-resistant interface compatible with a wide range of Danfoss and Maneurop reciprocating compressors. This compressor service valve features a right-angle configuration and high-grade brass construction to withstand vibration and thermal cycling. Whether you are performing a refrigerant pump-down or replacing a compressor, the Danfoss 8168030 ensures reliable sealing and streamlined access to the high or low-pressure sides of the system. Its standard dimensions and thread pitch allow for seamless integration into existing 1-1/4" Rotolock ports without modifications.

• Direct OEM Replacement: Replaces Danfoss 6804504, ensuring perfect fitment during compressor swaps or system retrofits.
• Optimized Sealing: Precision-machined 1-1/4" Rotolock threads and ODF solder ends prevent refrigerant loss under high-pressure conditions.
• Streamlined Serviceability: Allows for isolation during compressor servicing, reducing downtime and simplifying evacuation processes.
• Durable Construction: Built for commercial environments, handling the rigors of heavy-duty HVAC and refrigeration cycles.

What is the torque specification for a 1-1/4" Rotolock valve?
Standard 1-1/4" Rotolock connections typically require 74 lb-ft (100 Nm) of torque. Always use a backup wrench when tightening to prevent stress on the copper piping.

Does this valve include the Teflon gasket?
The valve is compatible with 1-1/4" Rotolock gaskets; however, it is recommended to replace the gasket during every service event to maintain a gas-tight seal.

Can this valve be used on the discharge or suction side?
Yes, provided the compressor port is a 1-1/4" Rotolock and the line set is 7/8" ODF, this valve is suitable for suction or discharge service applications.
