O. REPLACING A TXC***S3 COIL WITH A 

4NXC****C3 COIL  (4NXCB032, 4NXCB036, and 

4NXCB063 Coil Only) 
1.  Determine which refrigerant is being used by the 

system.  This coil is shipped ready for R-410A.  The 
TXV is correct for R-410A systems only.

2.  Recover refrigerant in the system.
3.  Disconnect refrigerant lines.
4.  Disconnect drain lines.
5.  Slide the old coil out.
6.  Discard the coupling panel and front access panel from 

the existing AS3 cabinet.

7.   Slide the new coil in the place of the old coil.
8.  Install the manifold panel from the new 4NXC coil 

cabinet to the existing coil cabinet.

IMPORTANT:   

When unbrazing and brazing lines, make sure to wrap a 

wet rag around the liquid or suction line before the TXV 
body to protect the TXV from over heating during brazing.

NOTE:  

TXV bulb MUST be protected (wrapped with wet rag) or 

removed, while brazing the tubing. Overheating of the 

sensing bulb will affect the functional characteristics and 
performance of the comfort coil.

9.  Wrap a wet rag around the suction line before the TXV 

sensing bulb to protect the bulb from over heating 
during brazing.

10.  Wrap a wet rag around the liquid line before the TXV 

body to protect the TXV from over heating during 
brazing.

11.  Connect the field refrigerant lines. Brazing instructions 

are on page 7.

12.  Leak test all refrigerant piping with dry nitrogen.
13.  Remove the wet rags.
14.  Install the front panel from the new 4NXC coil cabinet 

to the existing coil cabinet.

15.  Replace the condensate drain piping per the coil 

installation instructions on page 8.

16.  Pull a vacuum on the refrigerant system. 
17.  Charge the system per the charging instructions with 

the outdoor unit 

P. TXV CHANGE OUT 
1.  Unbraze the liquid line field connection.
2.  Remove the front panel and manifold panel.
3.  Slide the coil out of the cabinet.
3.  Snip the wire tie on the TXV and discard.  Disconnect 

the TXV sensing bulb and equalizer line.  

4.  Remove old TXV.  Make sure to use a backup wrench 

when loosening TXV.  See Figure 21.

5.  Attach the new TXV to the coil distributor assembly.  

Make sure to use backup wrench as shown in Figure 
21.  Align the liquid line tube with the hole in the 
manifold panel.  Use a field supplied wire tie to attach 
the TXV to the TXV mount bracket.

6.  Connect the Equalizer line to the brass fitting on the 

suction manifold.

7.  Attach the TXV sensing bulb to the suction manifold. 

The bulb should be between the 8 - 4 o’clock position on 
the line.

8.  Insulate the TXV sensing bulb.   
9.  Replace the manifold and front panels.

IMPORTANT:   

When unbrazing and brazing lines, make sure to wrap a 

wet rag around the liquid or suction line before the TXV 
body to protect the TXV from over heating during brazing.

NOTE:  

TXV bulb MUST be protected (wrapped with wet rag) or 

removed, while brazing the tubing. Overheating of the 

sensing bulb will affect the functional characteristics and 
performance of the comfort coil.

10.  Wrap a wet rag around the liquid line before the TXV 

body to protect the TXV from over heating during 
brazing.

11.  Braze the field Liquid line to the coil.
12.  Pressure test the refrigerant system using dry 

nitrogen.  Test all connections for leaks to ensure 
integrity of the refrigerant piping system.

NOTE:   

Torque specification for TXV equals 1/6 turn past finger 

tight.  Make sure to use a backup wrench when tightening 

or loosening TXV.  See Figure 21.
