Specification
Application
Thermostatic expansion valves series TMX are used in
general refrigeration and for original equipment.
Plants with one or more refrigerant circuits such as
refrigerated cabinets, deep freezing plants, milk cooling units,
water chillers, air conditioning systems, cold stores and heat
pumps. For plants with single and multiple injections, with
high or low flow resistance, for all kind of distributors.

MOP valves protect the compressor by limiting the increase
of suction pressure.
The MOP value should be chosen for the max. permissible
suction pressure of the compressor or min. 5 K higher than
the required evaporating temperature of the system.
For orders without any MOP indication a valve with MOP
+ 10 °C will be delivered.
With gas charged valves and MOP it is under all operating
conditions necessary that the bulb is always colder than the
capillary tube and the thermal head!
With the Honeywell TMX series the thermal head is heated
advantageously by the liquid refrigerant. The warm thermal
head is on the safe side at any time.
