Electric expansion valve
Type AKV 10P and AKV 10PS
For liquid injection into evaporators
AKV 10P and AKV10PS are electric operated expansion valves designed for refrigeration plants.
The AKV 10P and AKV 10PS valves are normally controlled by a controller from Danfoss range of ADAPKOOL® controllers, that ensures a precise liquid injection into evaporators.
The AKV 10P and AKV 10PS valves are supplied as a part program, as follows:
• Separate valve
• Separate coil with terminal box, DIN plug or cable
• Spare parts in the form upper part, orifice and filter
The orifice and piston assemblies are replaceable. The AKV 10P and AKV 10PS valves cover a wide capacity range.
