Product Description
The HEATCRAFT 29341802 is a refrigerant expansion valve designed to meter refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil of a commercial refrigeration system. Acting as the primary metering device in the refrigerant circuit, it regulates superheat and controls the rate at which liquid refrigerant enters the evaporator. This valve is a direct OEM replacement part sourced through Heatcraft's commercial appliance parts and accessories line. Licensed refrigeration technicians and HVAC-R service professionals typically handle replacement of this component as part of routine system servicing or corrective maintenance.
This expansion valve is intended for use in commercial refrigeration applications where Heatcraft equipment is installed. Typical installation scenarios include walk-in coolers, walk-in freezers, refrigerated display cases, and other commercial appliance systems that rely on Heatcraft evaporator coil assemblies. Service calls involving loss of refrigerant capacity, excessive superheat, or flooding conditions at the evaporator are common triggers for expansion valve replacement.

Installation Notes
Expansion valve replacement must be performed by an EPA Section 608 certified refrigeration or HVAC-R technician. Recover all refrigerant from the system before opening the refrigerant circuit. After installation, the system must be evacuated and recharged according to the equipment manufacturer's specifications before returning to service. Verify superheat settings at startup to confirm proper valve operation.
