The flowrator (piston-style metering device) regulates refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil, and this inlet tube routes liquid refrigerant to the flowrator body. A kinked, corroded, or mismatched tube can restrict flow and cause poor cooling, coil icing, or improper subcooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM Part Number: B1796630\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits Model: ARUF060-00A-1A air handler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunction: Flowrator (metering device) inlet tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Goodman \/ Amana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem: Refrigerant liquid line component\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOEM vs. Generic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause this tube feeds the metering device, dimensional accuracy matters. The OEM B1796630 is pre-bent and sized to mate cleanly with the ARUF060 coil and flowrator seat. Generic tubing can introduce flare-fit problems or restrictions that degrade capacity.
