Sporlan 129341 TXV
For high-demand air conditioning and heat pump systems, the Sporlan 129341 stands as a critical component for maintaining precise refrigerant control. This thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) is a Type S brass bar body valve, engineered to regulate R22 refrigerant flow by monitoring superheat at the evaporator outlet. Featuring a 5/8" x 1 1/8" ODF solder connection, this unit provides a nominal 8-ton capacity, making it a reliable solution for commercial or large residential cooling loads. As the direct replacement for 100740, it allows for seamless integration into existing liquid lines without extensive piping modifications. The externally equalized design, paired with a GA thermostatic charge, ensures the valve reacts accurately to changes in suction pressure, protecting the compressor from liquid slugging while maximizing evaporator efficiency. Built with a field-replaceable power element and a permanent 12-mesh inlet strainer, this Sporlan SVE-8-GA is the industry standard for contractors requiring durable, high-performance metering devices.
Key Benefits:- Precise Superheat Control: Maintains optimal superheat levels to ensure consistent evaporator performance and system efficiency.
- Direct OEM Drop-In: Specifically designated as the replacement for Sporlan 100740, facilitating fast field swaps with 5/8" and 1 1/8" ODF connections.
- Durable Brass Construction: The rugged brass bar body and stainless steel internal parts provide maximum protection against corrosion and erosion in demanding HVACR environments.
- Balanced Port Design Support: Engineered to provide stable liquid flow even under varying head pressures or widely fluctuating operating conditions.
- Field Serviceable: Features accessible internal parts and a replaceable thermostatic element, allowing for easy cleaning or element replacement without removing the valve body from the line.
Is the Sporlan 129341 compatible with refrigerants other than R22?
This specific model is calibrated for R22 systems. While some Type S valves can handle alternative refrigerants like R407C, the GA charge and internal sizing of the 129341 are optimized for R22 performance. Always verify the thermostatic charge code before application.
What is the purpose of the external equalizer on this 8-ton TXV?
The external equalizer compensates for pressure drops through the evaporator, ensuring the thermostatic expansion valve accurately senses the pressure at the bulb location rather than just at the valve outlet. This is essential for 8-ton systems where significant pressure drops are common.
Can I replace the sensing bulb element if it loses its charge?
Yes, the 129341 uses the Sporlan Type 83 element, which is field-replaceable. This allows technicians to restore service quickly if the capillary tube or diaphragm is compromised without needing to desolder the entire valve.
