TYPICAL TXV INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
The TXV unit can be installed internal or external to the
indoor coil. In applications where an uncased coil is being
installed in a field−provided plenum, install the TXV in a
manner that will provide access for field servicing of the
TXV. Refer to Figure 26 for reference during installation of
TXV unit.
To prevent any possibility of water damage, properly
insulate all parts of the TXV assembly that may sweat due
to temperature differences between the valve and its
surrounding ambient temperatures.

Figure 26. Typical TXV Installation
1. Remove the field−provided fitting that temporary
reconnected the liquid line to the indoor unit’s
distributor assembly.
2. Install one of the provided Teflon rings around the
stubbed end of the TXV and lightly lubricate the
connector threads and expose surface of the Teflon
ring with refrigerant oil.
3. Attach the stubbed end of the TXV to the liquid line
orifice housing. Finger tighten and use an appropriately
sized wrench to turn an additional 1/2 turn clockwise
as illustrated in figure 23, or 20 ft−lb.
4. Place the remaining Teflon ring around the other end
of the TXV. Lightly lubricate connector threads and
expose surface of the Teflon ring with refrigerant oil.
5. Attach the liquid line assembly to the TXV. Finger
tighten and use an appropriately sized wrench to turn
an additional 1/2 turn clockwise as illustrated in figure
23, or 20 ft−lb.
