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 2012โMarย 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.
