This valve reed (Part #380034) is designed as a direct replacement for specific AC air compressor models that require a 71X40 mm reed.
Always Confirm Compatibility: It is crucial to verify your compressor's model number and cross-reference the required part number and reed dimensions before purchase to ensure a correct fit. Consult your compressor's manual or exploded parts diagram.
Watch for these common signs that may indicate the need for a valve reed replacement:
Reduced Cooling Capacity: The AC system struggles to reach or maintain the desired temperature.
Loss of Compression: Lower suction pressure and higher discharge pressure readings.
Increased Energy Consumption: The compressor runs longer cycles to achieve the same cooling effect.
Unusual Noises: Clicking or rattling sounds from the compressor assembly can indicate a broken reed.
Professional Service Recommended: Replacing internal compressor components like the valve reed requires specialized knowledge and tools. The refrigerant system must be properly evacuated and recovered by a certified technician before disassembly.
Inspect Related Components: When replacing the valve reed, it is highly recommended to inspect the valve plate and gaskets for wear or damage and replace them if necessary to ensure a complete and reliable repair.
System Recharge: After installation, the system must be vacuumed to remove moisture and air, then recharged with the correct type and amount of refrigerant.
