ETS Colibri®

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.
