The TXV meters refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil, maintaining the correct superheat level to protect the compressor and optimize system efficiency. This valve features ODF connections sized at 1\/4 inch inlet and 3\/8 inch outlet, and is compatible with R404A refrigerant. It is typically installed by a licensed refrigeration technician or HVAC-R service professional during new equipment installation or component replacement service calls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis TXV is suited for commercial refrigeration applications, including walk-in coolers, reach-in cases, and similar low-temperature or medium-temperature refrigeration equipment. The EFV-1\/5-C designation indicates a specific capacity rating and valve body configuration for targeted system fitment. Proper sizing of a TXV to the evaporator load is critical for stable superheat control and overall system performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eODF connection sizing: 1\/4 inch inlet x 3\/8 inch outlet for direct solder connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with R404A refrigerant, a common medium in commercial refrigeration systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEFV-1\/5-C valve body configuration for precise capacity-matched refrigerant metering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM-style replacement component for VICTORY commercial refrigeration equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for stable superheat control to protect the compressor from liquid refrigerant slugging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement TXV for VICTORY commercial refrigeration equipment.

The system must be recovered and the refrigerant charge removed before removing the existing valve. ODF fittings require proper brazing technique with nitrogen purge to prevent oxidation inside the refrigerant circuit. After installation, the system should be leak-checked, evacuated, and recharged to the equipment manufacturer's specified charge weight before startup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TXV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch ODF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch ODF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefrigerant\u003c\/strong\u003e: R404A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: EFV-1\/5-C\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: VICTORY\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 303-228D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VICTORY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51234048475442,"sku":"303-228D","price":380.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307617926.jpg?v=1780116148","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/victory-303-228d-txv-expansion-valve-1-4-x-3-8-odf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
