Bard part number 5651-103 is an OEM thermostatic expansion valve with 3/8 inch by 3/8 inch connections, used in Bard wall mounted air conditioners and related packaged equipment to meter refrigerant into the evaporator and maintain stable superheat for reliable cooling. Replacing a worn or sticking expansion valve can help correct symptoms like poor capacity, coil icing, or erratic suction pressure caused by improper refrigerant feed. Because fit and calibration matter on TXVs, match the connection size and confirm the correct Bard model and serial number before ordering to ensure proper performance and straightforward installation.
