    Sporlan Expansion Valve



    Hello everyone,

    This is my first post, so I hope I won't be getting too much out of the subject.

    I am having trouble identifying two Sporlan expansion valves which I will be replacing with Danfoss. I have to replace with Danfoss as I have a time limit for delivering the work.

    I managed to get the tonnage for both valves except for the thermostatic charges. Would anybody be able to help me with identifying the thermostatic charges C, L and Z?

    It has already been 2 days and since I posted my request to Parker and still no reply.

    Thank you.

    What temps are the evaporators operating at?

    C Ice

    Re: Sporlan Expansion Valve

    The L charge is temperature dependent and not so responsive to pressure change. It is intended for use in larger ammonia systems with multiple evaporators where a change in the flow through one expansion valve has almost no effect on suction pressure.

    Thanks a lot, it was for an ammonia application, but single circuit. It contained about 43 individual circuits. We had them ordered from Parker and it took about 3 months to arrive.
