In last month’s article, we looked at the timelines around the shift to R-454B and other A2L refrigerants. As that transition picks up, manufacturers are starting to release components that work across both legacy and next-generation systems. Danfoss’s new Universal TR6 thermostatic expansion valve is one of them—compatible with R-410A, R-454B, and R-32. It’s designed to simplify inventory for wholesalers and give contractors more flexibility in the field.
The Universal TR6 Thermostatic Expansion Valve Kit—Designed to Reduce Complexity and Job Time for Contractors
This flexible solution is designed to work seamlessly with legacy refrigerants like R-410A, as well as A2L and low-GWP alternatives—all in a single valve that helps contractors reduce truck stock and job time, while allowing wholesalers to streamline inventory and optimize shelf space.
Danfoss, announced the launch of its Universal TR6 Thermostatic Expansion Valve, an innovative product designed to optimize performance across a wide range of refrigerants. Engineered for legacy R-410A systems, as well as low-GWP refrigerants like R-454B and R-32, the Universal TR6 offers HVAC wholesalers and contractors a versatile, future-proof solution that ensures efficiency, reliability, and ease of installation.
The Universal TR6 valve is perfect for a variety of applications, from residential retrofits to new light commercial installations. Its advanced design allows for seamless compatibility with multiple refrigerants, enabling contractors and service technicians to streamline inventory and simplify installations without compromising on performance.
A technologically advanced enhancement of the existing TR6 product line, the Universal TR6 comes in a kit consisting of a valve, bulb strap, insulation tape, installation guide and three connectors: chatleff, aeroquip and flare.
Key Features of the Danfoss Universal TR6 Thermostatic Expansion Valve:
- Universal Refrigerant Compatibility: Works with R-410A, R-454B, and R-32, making it the ideal choice for both existing systems and future-proof installations.
