Description

This capillary tube is the replacement temperature-sensing tube used in refrigeration systems to transmit temperature/pressure changes to the control. It restores proper sensing for consistent cooling performance when the original tube is damaged. What it does

• Transmits temperature/pressure changes from the evaporator area to the thermostat or control device
• Helps the control regulate compressor and evaporator operation for consistent cooling
• Common symptom: inconsistent temperature or cycling, slow cool-down, or erratic thermostat behavior
• Fragile—kinks or breaks can prevent accurate sensing and lead to cooling problems

What's included

• One replacement capillary tube

Install notes

• Disconnect power before servicing; follow device safety instructions
• Handle tube carefully to avoid kinks, sharp bends, or crushing
• Verify correct routing and secure mounting to prevent vibration or contact with hot components
