TGE is a dedicated designed series of
thermostatic expansion valves for all standard
refrigerants.
The tight design meets the environmental
demands for today and future.
Versions for non standard refrigerants can be
produced to order.
For other refrigerants, please contact Danfoss.
Note: this product is approved for R290 by ignition source assessment in accordance to standard EN13463–1.

Balanced port design and advantage
The TGE series of thermostatic expansion valves have balanced port design.
Balanced port design prevents changes in pressure drop across the valve from inuencing operation
and provides excellent control on applications having widely varying operating conditions.
Balanced port TXV’s are recommended in refrigeration and air conditioning systems with any combinations of these conditions:
1) Widely varying head pressures
2) Widely varying evaporator loads
3) Widely varying pressure drop across the TXV
4) Fluctuating or extremely low liquid temperatures
5) Intermittent liquid line ash gas
TGE valves are designed for biow operations. TGE 10 has minor capacity reduction in reverse ow.
The central push pin is tted with a robust seal
(Pos 4) that ensures maximum tightness for the
life of the valve.
Static superheat (SS) can be adjusted by the
setting spindle (Pos 6), see g. 1.
The standard superheat setting (SS) is 4K / 7.2 °F
and adjustable for 0 – 8K / 0 – 14.4 °F.
SS = Static Superheat
OS = Opening Superheat
SH = SS + OS = total superheat
Example:
Static superheat SS = 4K / 7.2 °F
Opening superheat OS = 4K / 7.2 °F
The opening superheat is 4K / 7.2 °F, i.e. from
the point the valve begins to open up to rated
capacity. Opening superheat is determined by
the design and cannot be changed.
Total superheat SH = SS + OS
SH = 4 + 4 = 8K / 14.4 °F
Total superheat SH can be altered by changing SS
(by using the setting spindle).

Conventional system with summer/winter operation
Fig. 5 A conventional split heat pump system shown in cooling mode. This system has two
TGE thermostatic expansion valves with xed direction ow. An NRV check valve is placed in series
with each TGE to allow liquid refrigerant to bypass when ow is opposite the TXV xed direction.
Fig. 6 A heat pump system similar to that in g. 5 but with a more compact design, where the distance
between evaporator and condenser is very short. This system has only one bi–ow TGE valve metering
liquid refrigerant eectively in both directions. Changeover is by means of a 4–way valve.
A suction lter drier is often placed in suction lines just before the compressor. The normal ow
direction of TGE is determined by the primary function, i.e. cooling or heating.
