It is a block style TX valve with a pad-style configuration, and it carries a one year warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey connection details matter on this part. The listed inlet fitting is #6, with outlet fitting #10, suction inlet fitting #10, and suction outlet fitting #10. The inlet pipe and outlet pipe are both listed at 32mm, so it is important to compare the hose, pipe, and fitting sizes before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis valve is identified for use with Mazda 3 BK 2004 onward in the provided application note. The stated weight is 0.18kg, which may be useful when checking a replacement against the original component, but fitment should still be confirmed against the part number and system configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003er conditioning TX valve, the main job is to meter refrigerant flow through the system. The listed inlet measurement of 8.40mm and outlet measurement of 15.70mm, along with the suction inlet and suction outlet measurements of 15.70mm, are the kind of details that need to line up with the vehicle setup before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEX air conditioning TX valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlock pad style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 ton rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number TXX09073\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInlet fitting #6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutlet fitting #10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: OEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct type: Air conditioning TX valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTX type: Block\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTX style: Block - Pad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnit of measure: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: TXX09073\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTonnage: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.18kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo suit Mazda 3 BK 2004 onward\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMazda 3 listed in the supplied application data\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication and Buying Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore ordering, check the vehicle’s existing TX valve against part number TXX09073, the block pad style, and the listed connection sizes. The supplied fitment note points to Mazda 3 BK 2004 onward, but air conditioning parts should always be matched carefully because connection layout, pipe size, and valve style can differ between system variants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most useful checks on this part are the #6 inlet fitting, #10 outlet fitting, #10 suction inlet fitting, and #10 suction outlet fitting. The inlet and outlet pipe sizes are both listed at 32mm, while the note also records inlet at 8.40mm and outlet at 15.70mm, so the physical dimensions should be compared with the original unit before any fitment decision is made.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1 ton rating is another key identifier and should be treated as part of the matching process rather than a general replacement claim. If the vehicle is a Mazda 3 BK from 2004 onward, confirm the existing air conditioning setup, the valve orientation, and the original part details before purchasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause this is a specific OEX component with a defined application note and measured fittings, it is better to verify first than rely on a visual match alone. Even where the valve looks similar, the pipe size, fitting type, and block pad configuration need to line up with the vehicle and existing air conditioning hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number TXX09073 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevant published details for this unit include Type AIR CONDITIONING TX VALVE, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty One Year, Outlet Fitting #10, Tonnage 1, Note Inlet: (8.40mm) Outlet: (15.70mm) Suction Inlet: (15.70mm) Suction Outlet: (15.70mm), TX Style Block - Pad, Outlet Pipe 32mm, Product Group 2 AC COMPONENTS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional published details for cross-checking include Part No. TXX09073, Brand OEX, Description OEX Air Conditioning TX Valve Block Pad 1 Ton, Inlet Fitting #6, Suction Inlet Fitting #10, TX Type Block, Suction Outlet Fitting #10, Inlet Pipe 32mm, Weight .18kg, Product Group 1 COOLING.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOEX Air Conditioning TX Valve Block Pad 1 Ton. Part number TXX09073 should be checked first. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor part number TXX09073, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a air conditioning tx valve in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed electrical specification should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable application references include MAZDA 3, MAZDA 3 2003, MAZDA 3 2004, MAZDA 3 2005. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe listed warranty is One Year.
