Description
The Copeland 062088 (Model AAE 5 HW100 5FT 3/8 X 5/8 ODF S/T) is a precision-engineered Thermal Expansion Valve (TXV) designed for reliable refrigerant metering in commercial and residential HVAC and refrigeration systems. With a 5-ton capacity rating and compatibility with R22 and R407C refrigerants, this valve delivers consistent superheat control and system efficiency across a broad range of applications.
Featuring a straight body configuration with 3/8″ liquid line and 5/8″ suction line sweat (ODF) connections, the valve integrates easily into standard copper piping systems. The 5-foot capillary tube provides flexible bulb placement for accurate sensing, while the external equalizer port ensures precise pressure compensation — particularly important in systems with significant evaporator pressure drop or multiple circuits.
The MOP (Maximum Operating Pressure) charge of 100 PSI provides built-in compressor protection by limiting evaporator pressure during pull-down conditions, preventing compressor overload on startup.
