Sporlan 180891P Power Element
When you're troubleshooting a system that isn't maintaining the correct superheat, a failed Sporlan 180891P is often the culprit. This KT-83-VX100 Power Element features a 5-foot capillary tube and is a field-replaceable component for Type 83 thermostatic expansion valves. Designed specifically for HVACR applications using refrigerants like R-22, R-407A, and R-422D, it ensures precise refrigerant metering across a wide temperature range. The VX100 charge is engineered for air conditioning and heat pump systems, providing stable control even under varying load conditions. For a technician, the KT-83-VX100 5'CAP POWER ELEMNT offers a reliable fix without needing to pull the entire valve body, saving significant time on the manifold. This genuine Sporlan replacement part utilizes a stainless steel diaphragm for high-fatigue resistance, ensuring the TXV power element maintains its calibration under high-pressure cycles. Replacing a lost-charge element with this 180891P restores evaporator efficiency and prevents liquid floodback to the compressor.
Key Benefits:
- Compatible with R-22, R-407A, and R-422D for versatile refrigeration service.
- Features a 5-foot capillary tube for flexible sensing bulb positioning on the suction line.
- Field-replaceable design allows for rapid servicing of Type 83 valves without brazing.
- Engineered with a stainless steel diaphragm to withstand rigorous mechanical stress.
- Optimized VX100 thermostatic charge for superior air conditioning system stability.
Common Questions:
How do I know if my Sporlan power element has lost its charge?
If the TXV remains throttled or closed despite a high heat load and low suction pressure, the power element may have lost its internal pressure. Use a known-good element to test valve response before replacement.
Is the KT-83-VX100 compatible with R-410A systems?
No, this specific element is designed for R-22 and high-pressure replacements like R-407A and R-422D. For R-410A applications, you must use an element designated with an "Z" charge or specific R-410A nomenclature.
What is the proper bulb orientation for this 5-foot capillary element?
For suction lines 7/8" and larger, mount the bulb at the 4 or 8 o'clock position to avoid oil logging. Ensure the bulb is insulated and has tight thermal contact with a clean section of the line.
