Sporlan 040206-22 TXV
The Sporlan 040206-22 TXV, also identified by the industry part number ECE-C-VX100, is a high-performance thermostatic expansion valve engineered for precise refrigerant metering. This valve features a 1/2" x 7/8" ODF solder connection, making it a drop-in choice for contractors working on medium-to-large tonnage AC and refrigeration evaporators. Utilizing an adjustable superheat design, the ECE-C-VX100 allows technicians to fine-tune system performance to match specific load requirements, ensuring the evaporator remains fully active while preventing hazardous liquid floodback. The stainless steel diaphragm and field-replaceable element provide the durability needed for high-pressure R-22 refrigerant applications. This externally equalized valve is essential for systems with significant pressure drops across the evaporator or those utilizing a distributor, delivering a constant refrigerant flow control that stabilizes superheat even under varying ambient conditions. Its brass body and robust construction ensure a leak-proof seal and long-term reliability in demanding commercial HVACR environments.
Key Benefits for Contractors:- Precise Superheat Control: Externally adjustable stem allows for manual calibration to achieve the exact subcooling and superheat targets required by the OEM.
- Balanced Port Construction: Compensates for variations in head pressure and load, preventing valve hunting and maintaining stable evaporator temperatures.
- High-Durability Build: Features a stainless steel power element and a corrosion-resistant brass body designed to withstand the vibrations of industrial compressors.
- Optimized Compatibility: Specifically designed for R-22 systems with 1/2" ODF inlet and 7/8" ODF outlet ports for streamlined installation.
Can the thermostatic element be replaced in the field?
Yes, the ECE series is designed with a replaceable power head, allowing for quick repairs without de-brazing the entire valve body from the liquid line.
When should I use the external equalizer on the ECE-C-VX100?
The external equalizer must be connected to the suction line downstream of the sensing bulb to accurately measure evaporator pressure, which is critical for systems using a refrigerant distributor.
Does this valve come factory-set for a specific superheat?
While typically factory-set for standard air conditioning applications, it is an adjustable model that should always be verified with a PT chart and manifold gauges during startup.
