Description
The Sporlan Controls 908036 is a power element designed exclusively for Sporlan thermostatic expansion valves (TXVs) used in refrigeration and air conditioning applications. A diaphragm within the power element reacts to variations in the refrigerant pressure passing through the TXV. The diaphragm responds to changes in pressure by contracting and expanding, applying force against a spring. The position of a pin or stem within the TXV is affected by the interaction between this pressure-induced force and the spring. This in turn manages the valve’s opening, controlling the flow of refrigerant according to the pressure requirements of the system. The power element indirectly affects the system’s evaporator coil temperature by controlling the flow of refrigerant. This aids in keeping the conditioned environment at the appropriate temperature.
