Sporlan 124296P Valve

The Sporlan 124296P is a high-capacity OVE-15-VX100 thermostatic expansion valve engineered for demanding commercial refrigeration and air conditioning systems. This ODF solder valve features a 7/8" x 1-1/8" connection size and utilizes a balanced port construction to ensure consistent performance across fluctuating head pressures and varying evaporator loads. Designed for R-22 and R-407C applications, it utilizes a VX100 charge for optimum superheat control in high-suction temperature environments. This model serves as the direct replacement for PVE16-GA, providing a seamless retrofit for legacy installations. The externally equalized design prevents false compressor cycling by accurately sensing evaporator pressure. The brass body construction and stainless steel internal components resist corrosion and sustain mechanical integrity in harsh mechanical rooms. When performing a TXV replacement, ensure proper wrap-around heat sinking on the 7/8" ODF connections to protect the internal power assembly and diaphragm during brazing.

• Balanced Port Design: Compensates for shifting ambient temperatures and head pressure flux, maintaining precise superheat.
• Direct Retrofit Compatibility: Engineered specifically to replace the PVE16-GA valve without needing piping modifications.
• Optimized VX100 Charge: Specifically tuned for R-407C and R-22 systems to prevent hunting at high-load conditions.
• Extended Service Life: Constructed with a high-strength stainless steel diaphragm and a rugged brass body.

What is the primary application for the VX100 thermostatic charge?
The VX100 charge is specifically calibrated for higher temperature applications, making this Sporlan OVE series valve ideal for air conditioning and high-temp food storage systems where precise vapor control is required.

Is this valve compatible with modern HFC blends?
Yes, the 124296P is rated for R-407C and R-22, though you must verify the orifice sizing and capacity requirements match the system's BTU rating after a refrigerant conversion.

How does the external equalizer impact system performance?
By utilizing a 1/4" ODF external equalizer, the Sporlan TXV compensates for pressure drops across the evaporator coil, preventing underfeeding and improving overall system efficiency.
