Parker Hannifin 168800P Thermostatic Expansion Valve 5/8" x 1-1/8" ODF

The Parker Hannifin 168800P is an ECE series thermostatic expansion valve designed for commercial air conditioning and refrigeration systems. This externally equalized valve features 5/8" x 1-1/8" extended ODF (flare) solder connections and is rated for 8-1/2 to 12-1/2 ton capacity with R-410A refrigerant using a ZX200 thermostatic charge.

Key Features:

• Extended ODF solder connections for secure, leak-free installation
• Brass bar stock body construction for durability and corrosion resistance
• Balanced port design provides precise pin and port alignment
• Field adjustable superheat for system optimization
• Removable power element with 60" capillary tube and 1/4" ODF external equalizer
• Long-lasting replaceable thermostatic element for easy maintenance
• Factory tested to ensure positive leak-free performance

The ECE series balanced port design prevents pressure drop across the valve from influencing valve operation, ensuring consistent refrigerant metering across varying load conditions. Suitable for small chillers, air conditioning units, freezers, walk-in boxes, and mobile refrigeration applications. The ZX200 charge is specifically engineered for low-temperature applications with R-410A refrigerant systems.
