Description
The Sporlan Controls 169417 is a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) engineered for use with R404A refrigerant in 2-ton capacity refrigeration and air conditioning systems. Featuring a 5-foot external equalizer line, this valve delivers accurate, responsive refrigerant metering to maintain optimal superheat levels and maximize system efficiency.
Sporlan is a globally recognized leader in refrigeration flow control, and this TXV reflects the brand’s commitment to precision engineering and long-term reliability. The external equalizer design compensates for pressure drop across the evaporator, making it well-suited for multi-circuit evaporators and systems with higher pressure differentials.
