Trane VAL4469 Thermostatic Expansion Valve - 500 5-Ton R-22

The Trane VAL4469 is a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) designed for 5-ton HVAC systems using R-22 refrigerant. This precision metering device regulates refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil, ensuring optimal system performance and efficiency by maintaining proper superheat levels.

Key Specifications:

• Capacity: 5 tons of refrigeration
• Refrigerant Type: R-22
• Pressure Rating: 500 PSI
• Application: Commercial and residential air conditioning systems
• Direct replacement Trane OEM component

This TXV helps maintain consistent cooling performance by automatically adjusting refrigerant flow based on evaporator load conditions. The valve's internal sensing bulb monitors suction line temperature to modulate refrigerant metering, preventing compressor damage from liquid floodback while maximizing heat transfer efficiency.
