Manitowoc 7108 Thermal Expansion Valve Txv Ice Machine

Product Description

The MANITOWOC 7108 is a genuine OEM thermal expansion valve (TXV) designed for commercial ice machines. The TXV meters refrigerant flow into the evaporator, maintaining the pressure differential and superheat conditions required for consistent ice production. This is a direct OEM replacement part, not an aftermarket substitute, which means it matches the original engineering tolerances and materials. Licensed refrigeration technicians and commercial kitchen equipment service pros are the primary installers of this component.

This valve is engineered for use in Manitowoc commercial ice machines where refrigerant flow regulation is critical to ice production efficiency. The TXV responds to suction-line temperature and pressure to modulate liquid refrigerant entering the evaporator, keeping the system operating within designed parameters. It is suited for commercial installations in restaurants, hotels, healthcare facilities, and food service environments where consistent ice output is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by an EPA Section 608 certified refrigeration technician. Before servicing, recover all refrigerant from the system per EPA regulations and relieve system pressure before disconnecting the existing valve. Braze or flare connections as required by the original system design, and leak-check all joints before recharging. Recharge the system with the refrigerant type and charge specified on the equipment nameplate.
