The Goodman B1796630 Flowrator Inlet Tube is a genuine OEM refrigerant metering component engineered for ARPT032-00C-1B air handlers and compatible Goodman/Amana ARPT-series equipment. This inlet tube routes liquid refrigerant into the flowrator (piston) metering device at the evaporator coil, ensuring correct refrigerant distribution and rated cooling capacity.

Specifications

  • OEM Part Number: B1796630
  • Component Type: Flowrator inlet / refrigerant metering tube
  • Fits: Goodman ARPT032-00C-1B air handler
  • Application: Evaporator coil liquid line metering
  • Material: Copper / brass refrigerant-grade tubing
  • Brand: Goodman / Amana OEM

OEM vs. Generic

The genuine Goodman OEM tube guarantees an exact bend geometry, fitting size, and orifice seat match for your ARPT032 coil — critical for a leak-free braze joint and correct subcooling. Generic or universal flowrator tubes often require rework of the braze connection and risk improper seating, which can cause superheat problems and reduced efficiency. For warranty-covered and reliability-critical repairs, the OEM part is the recommended choice.

Install Difficulty

Advanced (4/5). Replacement requires recovering the system refrigerant, brazing the copper connection, evacuating, and recharging. This is a job for an EPA-certified HVAC technician with the proper recovery and vacuum equipment.
