Key Functional Characteristics

• Pressure Regulation: Maintains consistent refrigerant pressure by controlling the flow from high‑pressure to low‑pressure sides, preventing over‑pressurization and ensuring system safety.
• Temperature Control: Regulates evaporator temperature through precise metering, allowing for efficient heat absorption and stable indoor climates.
• Flow Accuracy: Provides accurate flow rates across varying load demands, reducing energy consumption and enhancing overall HVAC performance.
• Durability: Constructed from corrosion‑resistant alloys that withstand aggressive refrigerants such as R134a, R410A, and newer low‑global warming potential (GWP) blends.

Design Features & Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

1. Preparation: Verify that the refrigerant lines are properly purged and free of contaminants. Ensure all electrical connections are insulated.
2. Mounting: Secure the valve onto the low‑pressure side using the threaded or flange interface, applying a thread sealant compatible with the refrigerant.
3. Electrical Wiring: Connect the +V and Ground wires to the power supply. Attach Signal In from the HVAC controller and Signal Out to the pressure sensor if required.
4. Calibration: Use a calibrated pressure gauge set to the system’s operating range. Adjust the valve’s bias voltage or PWM duty cycle until the desired flow rate is achieved.
5. Testing: Run the HVAC unit through a full cycle, monitoring temperature and pressure stability. Confirm that the valve responds correctly to controller inputs.

Maintenance & Troubleshooting

• Regular Inspection: Check for leaks at the mounting interface and inspect electrical connections for corrosion or loose contacts.
• Cleaning: If refrigerant contamination is suspected, flush the valve with a compatible solvent before re‑installation.
• Signal Verification: Use an oscilloscope to confirm that the control signal matches the expected waveform. A flat or erratic signal may indicate controller malfunction.
• Valve Failure Symptoms: Sudden drop in evaporator temperature, increased compressor cycling, or audible whistling can suggest valve blockage or mechanical wear.
