Sporlan 163708P TXV

The Sporlan 163708P EBSSE-6-SW TXV is a heavy-duty, brass bar body thermal expansion valve engineered for precision refrigerant metering in high-capacity systems. Utilizing a balanced port construction, this valve offsets the high pressure drop variations often encountered in commercial refrigeration or large-scale AC units, ensuring stable superheat control even under varying head pressures. The EBSSE-6-SW features 5/8" x 7/8" ODF solder connections and is specifically rated for a 6-ton nominal capacity with R-404A refrigerant applications.

Designed for professional-grade reliability, the 163708P employs an externally equalized design to accurately sense evaporator pressure, preventing hunting and protecting the compressor from liquid slugging. Its rugged stainless steel internal components and replaceable thermostatic element make it a preferred choice for contractors managing cold storage, food processing plants, or industrial chillers. The extended ODF fittings provide ample clearance for torch work, simplifying the brazing process for field technicians.

• Balanced Port Design: Maintains consistent superheat control across a wide range of operating conditions and head pressures.
• R-404A Optimization: Factory-configured for R-404A systems, making it a drop-in HVACR replacement part for existing industrial racks.
• Serviceable Construction: Features a replaceable thermostatic element and a take-apart brass body for easier internal inspection and maintenance.
• Durable Metering: High-grade refrigerant metering device built to withstand the thermal stress of low and medium-temperature applications.

• What is the primary application for the EBSSE-6-SW series? This valve is designed for commercial refrigeration and industrial AC applications where precise refrigerant flow control is required in 6-ton R-404A systems.
• Does this TXV require an external equalizer? Yes, the Sporlan 163708P is an externally equalized TXV, which is necessary for systems with high pressure drops across the evaporator coil.
• Can this valve be used for bi-directional flow? No, Sporlan Type EBS valves are not designed for bi-directional flow and should only be installed in the direction indicated by the flow arrow.
