The flowrator (piston-style metering device) inlet tube routes liquid refrigerant into the metering orifice ahead of the evaporator coil, ensuring correct refrigerant distribution for efficient cooling. A damaged, kinked, or corroded inlet tube can restrict flow and degrade system performance, so an exact OEM replacement keeps the metering circuit operating to spec.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Flowrator (piston metering) inlet tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility: Goodman\/Amana AEPF313716AA air handler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplication: Liquid-line refrigerant metering feed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Copper refrigerant tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnection: Factory-spec brazed\/flare fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOEM vs. Generic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eOEM B1796630\u003c\/strong\u003e is formed to the exact length, bend, and fitting required for the AEPF313716AA flowrator assembly, ensuring leak-free brazing and correct refrigerant feed.
