Overview
The Alco Controls 200RB5T4T is a pilot-operated, 2-way normally-closed solenoid valve engineered for refrigerant systems. Manufactured by Emerson Climate Technologies, this valve delivers precise control of refrigerant liquids and gases in HVAC and light commercial refrigeration applications. The 1/2″ ODF (Outer Diameter Flange) connection and 8.2 ton R22 capacity make it suitable for mid-range refrigeration cycles where energy efficiency and system balance are critical.
Key Features
- Pilot-operated design enables smooth solenoid actuation at lower power consumption
- 2-way, normally-closed operation prevents backflow when de-energized
- 1/2″ ODF connection for standard flare-type refrigerant tubing
- Rated for R22 refrigerant at 8.2 ton cooling capacity
- Compact form factor suitable for retrofit and new installations
- Solenoid coil (24V standard) allows remote electronic control integration
