357-4016: Expansion Valve

An Expansion Valve is used to regulate the flow of refrigerant from the high-pressure side to the low-pressure side of the unit. It controls the pressure, temperature, and superheat levels in the evaporator coil to ensure optimal cooling performance. Adjusting the size of the valve opening, maintains the desired pressure drop and temperature in the evaporator, allowing for efficient heat transfer and dehumidification. Attributes: • Ensures that the unit operates within the desired parameters • Maintains the proper balance between liquid and vapor refrigerant phases Applications: An Expansion Valve acts as a flow control part that precisely controls the flow rate of the refrigerant into the evaporator coil.
