Hi this is my first post and have been working on a system I am not familiar with at all. The system is running ok in heating but when switching over to cooling it then suddenly goes into vac and cuts out within seconds. 4 way valve has been changed and the only thing that I can see which looks like it could be a TXV is this picture attached any help or advice much appreciated
This is not a TXV. Its a pressure control.
Thank you, I thought as much just wanted to make sure as could not find a TXV anywhere on the system so had to second guess. Any ideas why it is going into vac once in cooling? Cheers
Cooling expansion valve is most likely blocked, track your liquid line to the evaporator, maybe it is a piston type which will look like a flare nut?
Is the new 4 way valve operating correctly?
Yeah the new 4 way valve is working efficiently this was my first port of call and installed the new one today still no luck
Get a service manual from the manufacturers so that you can identify the circuit parts.
was the system doing the same thing before replacing the 4 way valve?
Hi, yeah doesn't seem to have changed at all with the new one :/Quote:

Can't see much having changed over 10 years as they are quite prehistoric.
