Sporlan 124310P Expansion Valve

The Sporlan 124310P is a heavy-duty, brass bar stock OVE-30-VX100 expansion valve designed for high-capacity air conditioning and refrigeration systems. As a veteran-grade 30-ton thermostatic expansion valve, this unit is engineered for systems utilizing R-22 refrigerant, providing stable superheat control across varying load conditions. The OVE-30-VX100 features 1 1/8" x 1 3/8" ODF extended solder connections, which simplify installation and ensure leak-proof joints in demanding environments. This model is technically identical to the OVE-30-CP100, utilizing a balanced port design that compensates for pressure drop variations across the valve. This design choice is critical for maintaining precise TXV superheat adjustment and preventing "hunting" or liquid slugging in the compressor. The externally equalized 1/4" ODF connection allows for accurate sensing at the evaporator outlet, ensuring the Sporlan O series maintains peak efficiency even in systems with significant pressure drops.

• Balanced Port Action: Ensures consistent performance and precise pin-and-port alignment regardless of fluctuating head pressures or changing ambient conditions.
• Internal Accessibility: Features a field-replaceable thermostatic element and accessible internal parts, allowing for easier maintenance and cleaning without removing the entire valve body.
• Durable Construction: Specifically built with a high-strength brass body and a stainless steel diaphragm to withstand high-vibration applications.
• Identical Interchangeability: The 124310P serves as a direct drop-in replacement for the OVE-30-CP100, maintaining consistent system specs and flow characteristics.

Can the superheat be adjusted on the OVE-30-VX100?
Yes, this valve is equipped with a threaded bottom cap that provides access to the superheat adjusting stem, allowing for fine-tuning based on specific evaporator requirements.

Is an external equalizer required for this model?
Yes, the OVE-30-VX100 is an externally equalized expansion valve with a 1/4" ODF connection. This is necessary for accurate superheat control in 30-ton systems where pressure drop is common.

What refrigerant is the VX100 charge compatible with?
The VX100 thermostatic charge is specifically calibrated for R-22 applications within typical air conditioning temperature ranges.
