1-1/8 inch OD Refrigeration Service Valve – Built for System Integrity and Pressure Control

The 1-1/8 inch OD Refrigeration Valve is engineered for integration in HVACR systems requiring robust sealing and precise refrigerant flow control. Designed to accommodate copper connections, this valve supports both service and isolation functions under high-pressure conditions, ensuring the stability of critical refrigeration circuits.

Performance Highlights

• ✅ High-Pressure Capability – Rated for use in refrigeration systems with high working pressures typical of R-410A and other modern refrigerants.
• ✅ Copper Sweat Connections – Compatible with standard 1-1/8 inch OD copper tubing; suitable for brazed installations to ensure leak-free performance.
• ✅ Field-Serviceable Core – Equipped with removable valve core for access during evacuation, charging, or system diagnostics.
• ✅ Hermetically Sealed Cap – Brass cap with gasket seal prevents refrigerant loss and provides added protection against tampering.
• ✅ Tested to ANSI/UL Standards – Manufactured to conform with ANSI/UL 207 and SAE J513/J512 performance benchmarks for HVACR applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires proper tube preparation and the use of nitrogen during brazing to prevent internal oxidation. Always evacuate the system fully and pressure test according to system specifications. Ensure the valve is oriented correctly with flow direction indicators and that torque values for cap tightening are followed to preserve seal integrity.

Common Applications

This valve is typically used in commercial refrigeration systems, rooftop HVAC units, walk-in coolers, and split-system heat pumps. It enables isolation of system components during maintenance and facilitates service port access during pressure testing or refrigerant recovery.

Did You Know?

Using brazed copper service valves minimizes potential leak points in refrigeration systems and supports the containment requirements of high-GWP refrigerants under current EPA regulations.

For contractors working on high-efficiency refrigeration or air conditioning systems, the 1-1/8 inch OD Refrigeration Service Valve delivers the durability, precision, and code-compliant performance expected in demanding field installations.
