Colibri® Electric expansion valves

Type ETS 12C, ETS 24C, ETS 25C, ETS 50C, ETS 100C

ETS Colibri® is an electric stepper motor valve.
The valve has been designed for precise liquid
injection into evaporators for air conditioning
and refrigeration applications.

The valve in-line design includes balanced cage
and slider assembly operated by the direct driven
motor technology. This ensures solenoid tight
shut-off in both flow directions, thus providing
smooth operation of the system.

The valve incorporates a powerful bi-polar motor
which precisely controls flow regulation.
ETS Colibri® valves are compatible with electronic
control solutions from Danfoss and other
manufacturers.

Applications:

Air Conditioning

- Chillers, heat pumps

- Roof top and ducted split systems

- VRF and other split systems

- Close control cooling

Refrigeration

- Cold Rooms, Food retail and Transport

Features / Benefits

• Optimum utilization of the evaporator

• Increased energy efficiency and COP

• Improved overall system performance

Linear Flow characteristic

• Repetitive operation of the valve at all
conditions

Balanced cage design

• Higher MOPD and MWP

• Easily fits in various application and operating
conditions

Direct driven valve motor technology

• Powerful motor that guarantees precise flow
control and increased energy efficiency of the
system

Supports variety of refrigerants, approved for
oil free applications

• Wide application scope

Fast opening/closing time of 2.5 seconds

• Quick reaction to the operating condition

• Minimizes the risk of liquid refrigerant flowing
into the compressor at shut down and low
pressure cut out at start up

Solenoid tight shut-off

• Prevents migration of the refrigerant during
stand-still

• Reduced complexity by reducing number of
components in the system

Sight glass / moisture indicator

• Fast troubleshooting during system
diagnostics

Compact, lightweight and in-line design

• Flexible and easy integration in any system

Bi-metal connectors

• Fast and improved brazing process - no wet
wrap needed

Stainless construction

• Internal and external corrosion resistant

Fully hermetic laser welded design

• Hermetic valve in accordance to EU F-gas
Regulation EU 517/2014

• No external leakage which saves cost on
maintenance and refrigerant loss

• Protecting the environment and climate

Manufactured according to ISO/TS16949

• Second – to – none quality and reliability
