This small but essential tube delivers liquid refrigerant to the metering orifice so the evaporator coil receives the correct flow for proper cooling and dehumidification. A bent, kinked, or corroded inlet tube can restrict flow and cause poor cooling, icing, or compressor strain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM Part Number: B1796630\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunction: Flowrator\/metering-device inlet tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Copper refrigerant tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Goodman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipment Type: Air Handler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible Model: AEPT060-00C-1A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOEM vs. Generic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRefrigerant tubing must match the exact diameter, length, and bend profile to seat correctly against the flowrator and distributor.
