• Expansion Valve

Bard part number 5651-182 is an OEM expansion valve used in Bard wall mounted air conditioners and heat pumps to meter refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil so the system can maintain proper superheat across changing load conditions. When an expansion valve sticks, leaks, or loses its charge, you can see symptoms like poor cooling, coil frosting, unstable suction pressure, or nuisance trips, so replacing it with the correct Bard valve helps restore normal capacity and protect the compressor. Because expansion valves are application specific by refrigerant, tonnage, and connection style, confirm your unit model and serial number and match the original valve and sensing bulb routing before ordering and installing.
