Sporlan 903024P Valve
The Sporlan 903024P, also identified as the LAC-4-180, is a heavy-duty, non-adjustable head pressure control valve designed to maintain consistent system performance during low ambient conditions. This three-way low ambient control operates by restricting liquid flow from the condenser to the receiver while simultaneously diverting hot gas to the receiver inlet. This process effectively backs up liquid refrigerant into the condenser, reducing its capacity and artificially elevating the condensing pressure to prevent evaporator icing and insufficient TEV feeding.
Built with a rugged brass body and 3/8" ODF copper solder connections, this Sporlan valve features a 1/2" port and a domed steel element for high-side reliability. With a factory-set 180 PSI operating pressure and a design working pressure of 500 psi (34.5 bar), the LAC-4-180 3/8 ODF is a critical component for technicians servicing air-cooled condensing units in commercial refrigeration and industrial cooling applications where stable head pressure is non-negotiable.
Key Benefits- Consistent System Pressure: Maintains a minimum 180 PSI head pressure to ensure the thermostatic expansion valve (TEV) receives adequate liquid refrigerant flow.
- Low Ambient Reliability: Prevents common winter-time issues such as low suction pressure, frozen coils, and oil migration.
- Durable Construction: Features a high-integrity brass body and copper connections for leak-free performance in demanding environments.
- Simplified Installation: The 3/8" ODF solder joints allow for standard brazing techniques without the need for additional adapters.
- Factory Tested: Every 903024P unit is tested to ensure precise calibration and metal-to-metal seat integrity.
- How do I determine the correct orientation for this valve? The valve should be installed in the liquid line between the condenser and the receiver, following the specific flow arrows on the valve body to ensure proper hot gas bypass.
- Can this valve be adjusted in the field? No, the LAC-4-180 is a non-adjustable control factory-set to 180 PSI; if a different pressure is required, a different LAC series model must be selected.
- What refrigerant types are compatible with the LAC-4 series? These valves are compatible with most common CFC, HCFC, and HFC refrigerants; however, always verify chemical compatibility with the elastomer seals for specialized blends.
