It features a 1\/2-inch ODS (outside diameter sweat) connection and includes a 10-weight spring that sets the cracking pressure required to allow refrigerant flow in one direction while preventing backflow. Check valves of this type are critical components in heat pump and split-system refrigerant lines, where reverse refrigerant migration can cause compressor damage or system inefficiency. Licensed HVAC technicians install this valve as part of refrigerant circuit service or system assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VAL08402 is suited for refrigerant line applications in Trane split systems, heat pumps, and packaged HVAC equipment where a 1\/2-inch ODS sweat connection is required. It is used in both new installations and replacement service work where the original check valve has failed or is being upgraded to restore proper refrigerant flow control. This part is an OEM Trane component, ensuring dimensional and functional compatibility with original system design specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch ODS sweat connection for direct copper tube installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10-weight spring controls cracking pressure for reliable one-directional refrigerant flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePrevents refrigerant backflow to protect compressor and system integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM Trane part for consistent dimensional fit in original equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard refrigerant circuit configurations in split and heat pump systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement check valve for Trane HVAC systems requiring a 1\/2-inch ODS sweat check valve with a 10-weight spring in the refrigerant circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician certified to handle refrigerants under EPA Section 608 regulations. Recover all refrigerant from the system before cutting into the refrigerant circuit. Braze the valve into the line using nitrogen purge to prevent oxidation scale inside the tubing, and confirm flow-direction arrow on the valve body is oriented correctly before final braze. Leak-test all joints and recharge the system per manufacturer specifications after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch ODS (outside diameter sweat)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Check valve (one-directional flow)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: TRANE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: VAL08402\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TRANE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233426571570,"sku":"VAL08402","price":109.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307616853.jpg?v=1780099673","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/trane-val08402-check-valve-1-2-inch-ods-with-10-spring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
