Expansion Valve
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- All components of the refrigerant circuit submitted for quality observation are always to be sealed (use original sealing caps of original part).
- Replace damaged or leaking components of refrigerant circuit. Refer to COMPONENTS, REPLACING .
- To date, the original parts (compressor, reservoir, receiver/dryer, evaporator and condenser) have been filled with nitrogen gas. This charge is being gradually discontinued. There is little or no pressure equalization when removing the sealing plugs from the original part.
The expansion valve atomizes the streaming refrigerant and controls the flow quantity so that the vapor is gaseous only at the evaporator outlet, depending on the heat transmission.
