Sporlan 040305-05 Valve
Maintain precise suction pressure and prevent evaporator freeze-ups with the Sporlan 040305-05 A7-A Automatic Expansion Valve (AXV). This constant pressure valve is a standard for technicians servicing small-capacity systems where maintaining a stable evaporating pressure is critical. Featuring 3/8" ODF solder connections, this valve is built with a durable brass body, stainless steel internal springs, and a 100-mesh inlet strainer to protect the orifice from system debris. It is fully compatible with common refrigerants including R-134a, R-404A, and R-22.
The Sporlan A7-A 3/8 x 3/8 ODF offers an adjustable range of 0 to 90 psig, allowing for fine-tuned control in applications like ice cream machines, slush dispensers, and hot gas bypass setups. With a maximum high-side operating pressure of 500 psig, this Parker Sporlan constant pressure expansion valve ensures reliable refrigerant metering in high-cycle commercial environments. Replacing a failed AXV with this genuine Sporlan 040305-05 restores optimal pressure regulation, protecting the compressor and ensuring consistent discharge temperatures on the low side.
Key Benefits for Technicians:- Precise Pressure Regulation: Features a wide 0–90 psig adjustment range to meet specific evaporator pressure requirements.
- Multi-Refrigerant Compatibility: Works seamlessly with R-22, R-134a, and R-404A, reducing the need for multiple truck stock items.
- Durable Construction: Engineered with a brass bar stock body and silver-soldered connections for high-strength, leak-proof joints.
- Integrity Protection: Includes a built-in 100-mesh strainer to trap contaminants before they reach the valve seat.
- Compact Integration: The 3/8" ODF extended copper tails allow for easy brazing into tight equipment cabinets without overheating the internal components.
What is the difference between a TEV and this Sporlan A7-A AXV?
Unlike a Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TEV) which responds to superheat, the A7-A is an Automatic Expansion Valve (AXV) that responds strictly to changes in suction pressure. It is primarily used in constant load applications to keep the evaporator pressure from falling below a set point.
Can this valve be used for hot gas bypass?
Yes, the Sporlan 040305-05 is frequently used in hot gas bypass or refrigerant reclaim systems to maintain minimum suction pressure and prevent coil icing during low-load conditions.
How do I adjust the pressure setting on the A7-A?
The valve features an external adjustment screw. Turning the screw clockwise increases the spring tension and raises the opening pressure, while counter-clockwise decreases the setting.
