Bard 800-0342BX is an OEM cooling distributor used in Bard wall-mount air conditioners and related packaged equipment to meter and split refrigerant flow to the evaporator coil circuits for stable, even cooling. A worn, restricted, or leaking distributor can lead to poor capacity, coil icing, or uneven superheat, so replacing it with the correct Bard part helps restore proper refrigerant distribution and system performance. Because distributor configurations vary by model and tonnage, confirm compatibility by matching the part number to your Bard unit model and serial before ordering, and have installation performed using proper refrigeration practices to protect the sealed system.
Bard uses suffixes like "BX" to manage parts internally. These do not change the physical form or function of the part.
A part number ending in "BX" simply means it is packaged in a box for shipping, rather than for internal assembly use.
Example: 8406-142BX is physically identical to 8406-142.
