AC Battery Coolant Chiller

Tesla Model S Battery Coolant A/C Chiller (HVB) โ€” 1007476-00-E

Model S 2012โ€“2016 โ€ข HVB Battery Coolant Chiller โ€ข R134a โ€ข Feb 2012โ€“Mar 2016

Early Tesla Model S vehicles use a dedicated battery coolant chiller to pull heat out of the high-voltage battery loop. This plate-style heat exchanger lives in the A/C circuit and uses the R134a refrigerant path to chill the glycol coolant that circulates through the battery pack, drive units, and power electronics.

The unit offered here is the correct HVB Battery Coolant Chiller assembly for Model S Febย 2012โ€“Marย 2016, Tesla P/N 1007476-00-E. It includes the chiller body and TXV for the battery loop (typically supplied without the electric solenoid valve), and is a direct replacement for vehicles experiencing
battery over-temperature warnings, limited fast-charge rates, or refrigerant/coolant cross-leaks at the chiller.

  • OEM-spec HVB chiller โ€” plate heat exchanger and TXV assembly designed specifically for the Model S battery loop.
  • Maintains battery temperature โ€” uses the A/C system to cool pack coolant during Supercharging, spirited driving, and hot-weather use.
  • Correct 2012โ€“2016 fitment โ€” direct bolt-in for pre-facelift Model S with R134a refrigerant; works on RWD and Dual Motor variants.
  • Common failure remedy โ€” ideal when the original unit is leaking, internally restricted, or contaminated after compressor failure.
  • Drop-in assembly โ€” interfaces with factory A/C lines and coolant hoses; no harness modifications required.

Installation:
Replacing the battery chiller requires recovery of the R134a charge, draining/bleeding the affected coolant loop, swapping the chiller assembly, then evacuating and re-charging the A/C system to the correct weight. We recommend this service be performed by a technician experienced with Tesla thermal systems and A/C service equipment. Any metal contamination from a failed compressor should be addressed with thorough flushing and filter/drier replacement.

Spec Detail
Tesla Part Number 1007476-00-E (battery coolant HVB chiller & TXV assembly)
Application Tesla Model S Febย 2012 โ€“ Marย 2016, all trims using R134a battery chiller
Function Plate heat exchanger and thermal expansion valve that cools the HV battery coolant loop using the A/C refrigerant circuit
Refrigerant R134a (factory Model S thermal system refrigerant)
Coolant Ethylene-glycol HOAT coolant (Tesla battery/drive-unit loop)
Typical Failure Modes External corrosion and leaks, internal restriction, refrigerantโ€“coolant cross-leak, or contamination after compressor failure
Service Recommendation Replace chiller as an assembly; inspect/flush lines, replace receiver/drier, and verify 3-way valves and pumps are operating correctly
Warranty Contact Gruber for available warranty and core-exchange options (new vs. refurbished)

TIP

Maintenance Tip:Keep the front condenser stack and radiator area clear of leaves and road debris and maintain correct coolant levels. High condenser pressures or low coolant flow increase chiller load and are a common root cause of battery cooling complaints on early Model S vehicles.
