Adjusting TXV for Superheat
(40RUA and RUQ only)
The unit--mounted thermostatic expansion valve(s) is/are
factory set to provided superheat at the bulb location in
10_Fto15_F (5.5_Cto8.3_C) range. Actual system load
conditions may require adjustment of the factory setting.
To adjust the TXV superheat setting:
1. Remove the seal cap from the bottom of the TXV
body.
2. To increase superheat, turn the stem clockwise. To de-
crease the superheat, turn the stem counterclockwise.
Do not turn the stem more than one full turn.
3. Wait until suction pressure and superheat stabilize.
This may take more than 30 minutes.
4. Continue adjustment until superheat reaches 10_Fto
15_F (5.5_Cto8.3_C).
5. Replace the seal cap; tighten.
INSTALLER / INSTALLATEUR
TXV superheat must be checked at initial
unit start-up and adjusted if necessary.

La surchauffe TXV doit être vérifiée au
moment de la mise en route initiale et
ajustée si nécessaire. La surchauffe doit
être comprise entre 10 et 15 degrés F.
