Ranco V6-414080-170 heat pump reversing valve changes the direction of how a heat pump works. It is useful for the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) industry. This valve is ideal for use in unitary, split system and window-type heat pump applications.
Working Mechanism:
- When in heating mode, the heat pump absorbs heat from the outside and releases it inside, warming the space.
- When in cooling mode, the heat pump absorbs heat from the inside and releases it outside, cooling the space.
- The reversal valve changes the direction of refrigerant flow, making the heat pump switch between heating and cooling.
Features:
- Ranco heat pump reversing valve provides heating and cooling from the heat pump system by reversing the refrigerant flow direction.
- It is a slide-type reversal valve with a 4-way pilot valve that operates at full heat pump system pressure.
- This Ranco reversing valve features Teflon seals for minimal pressure drop and improved functionality.
- It has copper inlet and outlet tubes that allow easy installation.
- This magnetic pilot valve allows for low power consumption.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How does a heat pump reversal valve compare to traditional heating and cooling systems?
A. Heat pump systems with reversal valves are generally more energy-efficient than traditional heating and cooling systems because they transfer heat rather than generate it. They can save on energy costs and provide both heating and cooling from a single unit.
Q. Are there any safety considerations when using heat pump reversal valves?
A. Yes, ensure that refrigerant lines and components are leak-free and that the system operates safely.
