• Expansion valve/orifice tube style A/C flow restrictor
• Controls refrigerant flow into the evaporator
• Supports proper A/C system cooling performance
• Recommended replacement during A/C service
• Compatible with select BMW 740i, 740Li, 745i, 745Li, 750i, 750Li, 760i, and 760Li applications

Detailed Product Information

Global Parts part number 3411796 is engineered for HVAC systems that use an expansion valve to meter refrigerant into the evaporator. By slowing refrigerant before it reaches the evaporator, the valve helps the system make effective use of the refrigerant’s cooling capability. For BMW 7 Series service work, 3411796 is a practical replacement when restoring A/C operation on vehicles such as the BMW 740i and BMW 750Li.

This part cross-references Four Seasons 39291 and UAC EX10238C for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

• Weak or inconsistent cabin cooling
• Improper refrigerant metering at the evaporator
• A/C performance loss after system service
