Rheem-Ruud 61-104031-02 Thermostatic Expansion Valve

The Rheem-Ruud 61-104031-02 is a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) designed for use in residential and commercial HVAC systems. This precision-engineered component regulates refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil, ensuring optimal system performance and efficiency by maintaining proper superheat levels.

Key Features:

• OEM replacement part ensuring exact fit and reliable performance
• Thermostatic design automatically adjusts refrigerant flow based on cooling demand
• Helps maintain system efficiency and prevents liquid refrigerant from returning to the compressor
• Durable brass construction for long service life
• Factory-calibrated for consistent operation

This expansion valve is a critical component in the refrigeration cycle, metering the correct amount of refrigerant to match the heat load. Regular replacement of worn expansion valves can restore system capacity, improve energy efficiency, and prevent compressor damage from liquid floodback.
