Sporlan 4184-00 Valve

The Sporlan 4184-00 is a high-capacity, normally closed solenoid valve designed for demanding refrigeration and air conditioning applications. As the R46E259M model, this pilot-operated valve features a 1-1/8" ODF extended solder connection, allowing for installation without disassembly, which protects internal components from heat during brazing. This unit serves as the direct replacement for R40E289M and 045752, though technicians must verify field voltage as a new MKC-2 or PKC-2 coil is required for a complete setup. Engineered for versatility, it is rated for MOPD up to 300 psi AC and is compatible with modern high-pressure refrigerants including R-410A, R-22, and R-404A. Its synthetic seating and metal gaskets ensure tight closing and minimize external leak paths, making it a reliable choice for liquid, suction, or hot gas service in commercial systems.

• Extended ODF Solder Ends: Facilitates rapid installation by allowing brazing without the need to tear down the valve body.
• High Pressure Compatibility: Designed to handle the rigorous Maximum Operating Pressure Differential requirements of R-410A solar and refrigeration systems.
• Pilot Operated Disc: Requires a minimum pressure differential of only 1 psi for full port opening, ideal for suction line service.
• Durable Construction: Features synthetic seating material and stainless steel internal parts for long-term reliability against corrosion and wear.
• Versatile Mounting: Qualified for horizontal, side, or vertical line mounting to accommodate tight mechanical room footprints.

Is the coil included with the Sporlan 4184-00?
No, this is a "less coil" model. You must select the appropriate MKC-2 or PKC-2 coil based on your system's specific voltage requirements (e.g., 24V, 120V, or 208/240V).

Can the R46E259M be used in suction line applications?
Yes, because it is a pilot-operated solenoid valve with a low pressure drop requirement, it performs efficiently in suction service as well as liquid and discharge gas lines.

What is the direct replacement for the obsolete R40E289M?
The Sporlan 4184-00 (R46E259M) is the specified functional replacement. Ensure you check the existing coil voltage before installation, as the old coil is not compatible with the new valve body.
