Sporlan 903071P Valve
The Sporlan 903071P (Model LAC-5-210) is a heavy-duty, three-way modulating head pressure control valve designed to maintain stable system performance during low ambient conditions. Featuring a 1/2" ODF solder connection and a factory set-point of 210 PSI, this valve is critical for air-cooled condensing units that must operate in cold environments. It functions by sensing receiver pressure and modulating to bypass discharge gas directly to the receiver while simultaneously flooding the condenser with liquid refrigerant. This action backing up refrigerant into the condenser reduces its effective surface area, artificially raising the condensing pressure to ensure the thermostatic expansion valve (TEV) receives the necessary pressure differential to feed the evaporator correctly.
Built with a durable brass body and copper connections, the Sporlan LAC-5-210 is a non-adjustable solution that eliminates the need for complex ambient-sensing fan cycles or dampers. Utilizing a high-pressure control mechanism like this refrigeration pressure regulator prevents common low-ambient issues such as iced evaporator coils and low suction pressure. For technicians handling commercial refrigeration or split systems, the LAC-5 series provides a reliable, "set-and-forget" method for condenser flooding and precise head pressure management without the risk of pulsations commonly found in discharge line applications.
Key Benefits:- Optimized Low Ambient Operation: Specifically engineered to maintain a minimum 210 PSI head pressure, preventing system trips and ensuring consistent refrigerant flow in winter months.
- Simplified System Design: Consolidates the functions of multiple valves into a single 3-way modulating Sporlan valve, reducing potential leak points and installation time for contractors.
- Enhanced Compressor Protection: Maintains stable discharge pressures, which is essential for the reliable operation of hot gas defrost cycles and mechanical cooling performance.
- Robust Construction: Features a high-quality brass body and copper ODF connections, rated for a maximum working pressure of 450 PSI.
- How does the LAC-5-210 differ from the LAC-4 series? While the LAC-4 responds to discharge pressure, the LAC-5-210 responds to receiver pressure, providing more stable control in specific system architectures.
- Is this valve compatible with all refrigerants? This valve is compatible with most common halocarbon refrigerants; however, always verify the 210 PSI setting matches your specific refrigerant's pressure-temperature requirements for the desired head pressure.
- Can this valve be adjusted in the field? No, the Sporlan 903071P is a factory-sealed, non-adjustable unit to ensure precision and prevent unauthorized tampering with system settings.
