5651-153 OBSOLETE
- Expansion Valve 3/8" X 3/8"
Bard part 5651-153 is an OEM thermostatic expansion valve with 3/8 inch inlet and 3/8 inch outlet connections, used in Bard wall mounted air conditioners and heat pumps to meter refrigerant into the evaporator and maintain proper superheat under changing load conditions. A correctly sized, properly functioning TXV helps stabilize suction pressure, supports consistent coil performance, and can resolve symptoms like poor cooling, evaporator icing, or erratic refrigerant feed when the rest of the refrigeration circuit is in good condition. Because expansion valves are application specific by model and refrigerant, confirm 5651-153 against your unit model and serial number or the Bard parts list before ordering, and follow standard refrigeration best practices during replacement, including cleanliness, leak checking, evacuation, and proper charge verification.
