Description
Sporlan Controls 908036 Power Element DRH-6 Overview
The Sporlan Controls 908036 is a genuine OEM Power Element designed for use with Sporlan thermostatic expansion valves (TXVs) in commercial and industrial refrigeration systems. The DRH-6 power element serves as the sensing and actuating assembly of the TXV, responding to refrigerant superheat conditions at the evaporator outlet to precisely modulate refrigerant flow and maintain optimal system efficiency.
What Is a Power Element?
A power element is the heart of a thermostatic expansion valve. It contains a temperature-sensitive charge that expands or contracts in response to the superheat of the refrigerant leaving the evaporator. This movement opens or closes the TXV valve port, ensuring the correct amount of refrigerant is metered into the evaporator at all times — protecting the compressor and maximizing heat transfer efficiency.
Key Features
