Application
Au
AMV are used in general refrigeration and for original
equipment.
For plants like dehumidifiers, air driers, water coolers, icemaking machines or air conditioners.
ADJUSTABLE EVAPORATING PRESSURE
PRODUCT DATA
Features
• AMV : with internal pressure equalisation; for single
injection in installations with one or more cooling
circuits
• AMVX: wi
evaporation effectiveness in all applications.
Obligatory for multiple injection by liquid distributors
• Adjustable evaporating pressure setting ± 0.5 bar
within the evaporating pressure range
• Flare connections
• Extreme durable due to stainless steel head and
stainless steel diaphragm welded using protective gas
• Interchangeable orifice cartridges
• Refrigerants: all CFC, HCFC, HFC,
not for ammonia
