Sporlan Controls 108757 3/8″x1/2″ ODF R-500 5′ Ext Eq Thermostatic Expansion Valve

Description

The Sporlan Controls 108757 is a Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TXV) engineered for reliable, precise refrigerant metering in R-500 refrigeration and air conditioning systems. Featuring 3/8″ inlet and 1/2″ ODF outlet connections, this valve delivers accurate superheat control to protect compressors and maximize system efficiency. The included 5-foot external equalizer capillary tube allows the valve to sense downstream pressure independently of the inlet, making it ideal for systems with distributor assemblies or longer evaporator circuits where pressure drop across the evaporator is a factor.

Sporlan, a Parker Hannifin brand, is a trusted name in refrigeration controls, known for manufacturing precision-engineered expansion valves that meet the demanding requirements of commercial and industrial HVAC/R applications.
