Sporlan 168800P Valve
The Sporlan 168800P (model ECE-12-1/2-ZX200) is a high-performance thermostatic expansion valve engineered for precise refrigerant metering in large-capacity HVACR systems. Constructed with a heavy-duty brass body and featuring 5/8" x 1 1/8" sweat (SW) connections, this externally equalized valve is optimized for R-410A refrigeration applications, specifically within the 8-1/2 to 12-1/2 ton range. As a veteran tech knows, the balanced port design is critical here; it ensures consistent superheat control by neutralizing the effect of varying head pressures, making it ideal for systems with high fluctuations in operating conditions.
The ZX200 power element is specifically tuned for low-temperature applications, providing the responsive glide and rapid reaction times required to protect the compressor from liquid slugging while maintaining high evaporator efficiency. With its field-adjustable superheat and removable power assembly, the Sporlan 168800P expansion valve offers the serviceability and reliability required for commercial chillers, large-scale AC units, and industrial refrigeration racks. The extended ODF solder connections simplify the brazing process, reducing the risk of internal component overheating during installation.
Key Benefits for Contractors:- Balanced Port Design: Maintains stable refrigerant flow control across a wide range of ambient temperatures and pressure drops.
- R-410A Optimization: Specifically calibrated for high-pressure R-410A HVAC systems to ensure maximum heat transfer.
- Enhanced Durability: Rugged brass bar stock construction minimizes potential leak points and withstands harsh mechanical environments.
- Serviceable Components: Features a replaceable power element and accessible internal parts for simplified maintenance and cleaning.
- Precise Superheat Tuning: External adjustment allows for exact calibration to meet specific system thermal requirements.
- What is the tonnage rating for the ECE-12-1/2-ZX200? This valve is rated for 8-1/2 to 12-1/2 tons, making it suitable for large commercial evaporators.
- Does this valve support R-22? No, this specific model is designed and charged for R-410A systems. Using it with non-compatible refrigerants will result in improper superheat and potential system failure.
- Is an external equalizer required? Yes, the ECE-12-1/2-ZX200 is an externally equalized valve, which is necessary for the high-pressure drops typical in larger evaporator coils.
