Electric Regulating Valve

Type KVS

KVS is a series of electronic suction modulating valves for AC transport and refrigeration applications.

Accurate temperature or pressure control is obtained by modulating the refrigerant flow in the evaporator with a current or voltage driver.

With an EKC 368 controller (current driver) and an AKS sensor placed in the media to be controlled, an accuracy better than ± 0.5K can be obtained.

The balanced design provides bi-flow operation as well as solenoid shut-off function in both flow directions at MOPD 33 bar (478 psig).

Features

• Biflow.

 

• High resolution for precise control.

 

• Wide range for all common refrigerants R22,

 

R134a, R404A, R407A, R407C, R407F, R422B,

 

R422D, R438A, R448A, R449A, R450A, R452A,

 

R507, R513A, R410A, R1234ze and other

 

refrigerants

 

• Balanced port design (KVS 42).

 

• Solenoid tight shut-off.

Low power consumption.

Corrosion resistant design external as well as internal.

Cable and connector assemblies as accessories.

For manual operation and service of KVS valves an AST-g service driver is available.
