Description
The Sporlan Controls 169435 is a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) engineered for R22 refrigerant systems rated at 1 ton of cooling capacity. Featuring a 5-foot external equalizer capillary tube, this valve delivers accurate refrigerant metering and superheat control to protect the compressor and maximize system efficiency.
Sporlan is a trusted name in refrigeration controls, and this TXV reflects the brand’s commitment to precision engineering and long-term reliability. The external equalizer connection allows the valve to sense evaporator outlet pressure independently, making it ideal for evaporators with significant pressure drop and ensuring stable superheat across a wide range of operating conditions.
