Description

expansion valve

An expansion valve is a crucial component in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. It regulates the flow of refrigerant into the evaporator by reducing its pressure and temperature, allowing efficient heat absorption. Types include thermal expansion valves (TXV), electronic expansion valves (EEV), and capillary tubes.

An expansion valve is a key component in refrigeration and air conditioning systems that controls the flow of refrigerant into the evaporator. It reduces the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant, allowing it to absorb heat efficiently. This process is essential for maintaining the cooling cycle and ensuring energy efficiency.

Features:

1. Pressure and Temperature Regulation – Reduces refrigerant pressure and temperature for optimal cooling.
2. Flow Control – Adjusts the refrigerant flow based on cooling demand.
3. Prevents Compressor Overload – Ensures proper refrigerant supply to prevent system inefficiencies.
4. Energy Efficiency – Helps maintain an efficient cooling cycle by controlling refrigerant distribution.
5. Types Available – Includes thermal expansion valves (TXV), electronic expansion valves (EEV), and capillary tubes, each suited for different applications.
