Sporlan Controls 168767 TXV
The Sporlan Controls 168767 is a high-performance thermal expansion valve (TXV) engineered for precision refrigerant metering in R22 systems. Featuring a 1/2" x 7/8" ODF connection profile, this 6-ton expansion valve utilizes a balanced port design to maintain stable superheat across a wide range of operating conditions. The balanced port construction compensates for varying head pressures, preventing the valve from hunting and ensuring consistent evaporator loading in both air conditioning and commercial refrigeration applications.
Designed for professional contractors, the Sporlan 168767 incorporates a durable brass body with a stainless steel diaphragm and a field-replaceable power element to simplify long-term maintenance. The valve is externally equalized via a 1/4" ODF port, allowing for accurate pressure sensing at the evaporator outlet. By precisely modulating the flow of R22 refrigerant, it prevents liquid slugging and optimizes system efficiency. This OEM-grade component is built for silver-soldered, leakproof installations in high-capacity systems requiring a 6-ton TXV capacity.
Key Benefits- Balanced Port Design: Eliminates the influence of pressure drop fluctuations across the valve, providing superior control during varying ambient temperatures.
- Serviceable Construction: The replaceable thermostatic element and internal components allow for in-line maintenance without removing the entire valve body.
- External Equalization: Ensures precise superheat management by referencing the actual pressure at the evaporator outlet, maximizing coil efficiency.
- Corrosion Resistance: Built with high-grade brass and stainless steel internal parts to withstand harsh HVACR environments.
Is the Sporlan 168767 compatible with R410A systems?
No, this specific model is calibrated for R22 refrigerant. High-pressure synthetic oils and pressure differentials in R410A systems require a different thermostatic charge and valve rating.
What is the purpose of the 1/4" ODF equalization line?
The external equalizer compensates for the pressure drop through the evaporator, ensuring the Sporlan TXV maintains the correct superheat based on the pressure at the coil's end rather than the valve's outlet.
Can this 6-ton valve be used on a 5-ton system?
Slightly oversizing a TXV is generally discouraged as it can lead to erratic hunting and poor efficiency. It is recommended to match the valve capacity exactly to the nominal evaporator load for optimal performance.
