Reversing valve with Solenoid 3/8×1/2

Reversing valve with Solenoid 3/8×1/2

The 4-way Reversing Valve is the key component to provide Heating and Cooling from the system to the air conditioned space by reversing the flow direction of refrigerant. It is used at room air conditioners, packaged and central air conditioners.

Reversing valve with Solenoid 3/8×1/2

Solenoid activation: When a change in mode is needed (e.g., from cooling to heating. The thermostat sends a signal to energize the solenoid valve.

Valve shift: The solenoid’s electromagnetic force moves a pilot valve inside the reversing valve.

Pressure change: This pilot valve shifts the main slide valve by creating a pressure difference on either side of it.

Refrigerant redirection: The movement of the main slide valve redirects the hot gas. From the compressor to either the indoor or outdoor coil, changing the system’s function from heating to cooling, or vice versa.
