Sporlan Controls 168766 TXV
The Sporlan 168766 is a high-performance R-22 thermostatic expansion valve designed for precise refrigerant flow control in commercial air conditioning and heat pump systems. Featuring a 6-ton capacity, this valve utilizes a 1/2" x 5/8" ODF solder connection to ensure leak-free integration into the liquid line and evaporator inlet. Engineered with a balanced port design, it effectively compensates for varying head pressures and load fluctuations, maintaining stable superheat across a wide range of operating conditions. The external equalization feature allows for accurate sensing of evaporator pressure, preventing hunting and ensuring maximum coil efficiency. This Sporlan O-Series valve is a reliable choice for contractors performing system retrofits or repairs, providing the durability needed for high-demand HVACR environments. Its robust construction and replaceable internal components make it a standard for technicians prioritizing system longevity and accurate thermal regulation without the risk of liquid slugging or evaporator starve.
Key Technical Benefits- O-Series Reliability: Built for R-22 systems requiring a nominal 6-ton capacity for optimal heat transfer.
- ODF Solder Connections: Features 1/2 inch inlet and 5/8 inch outlet connections for secure, permanent installation.
- Thermostatic Charge: Optimized for standard air conditioning applications to ensure rapid response to load changes.
- Balanced Port Construction: Provides superior control during low-load conditions or when dealing with fluctuating ambient temperatures.
- External Equalization: Critical for systems with high pressure drops across the evaporator to maintain precise superheat settings.
What is the primary application for the Sporlan 168766?
This TXV is specifically designed for R-22 air conditioning and heat pump applications requiring a 6-ton capacity and external equalization for accurate refrigerant metering.
Can this valve be used with refrigerants other than R-22?
No, this model is factory-charged and calibrated specifically for R-22. Utilizing other refrigerants will result in improper superheat control and potential compressor damage.
Why is external equalization necessary for this 6-ton TXV?
In 6-ton systems, pressure drops across the evaporator coil are common. External equalization allows the valve to sense the actual pressure at the evaporator outlet, ensuring the valve maintains the correct superheat regardless of internal pressure losses.
