Products shown: 6

  • KDC / GVD category image

    KDC / GVD

    The KDC/GVD valve is a pressure control valve. The valve controls the discharge pressure of the compressor to ensure fast build-up of pressure and lubrication pressure. The valve also acts as a check valve in the discharge line of the compressor. The KDC/GVD valve is force-controlled so that when pressure in the oil separator becomes 2 bar (29 psi) higher than the suction pressure, the spring is compressed, and the valve opens. In low-pressure units (boosters), the spring requires a differential pressure of 0.5 bar (7 psi) for the valve to open.

  • KVD category image

    KVD

    KVD is a modulating receiver pressure regulator. It opens on falling receiver pressure and bypasses hot gas to maintain the receiver pressure at the regulator setting (adjustable). KVD and KVR form a regulating system, used to maintain constant and adequately high condensing and receiver pressure in plant with heat-recovery, and in refrigeration and air conditioning plant with air-cooled condensers

  • KVL category image

    KVL

    Crankcase pressure regulator type KVL is fitted in the suction line ahead of the compressor. KVL protects the compressor motor against overload during start-up after long standstill periods or after defrost periods (high pressure in evaporator).

  • KVP category image

    KVP

    The KVP is mounted in the suction line after the evaporator and is used to: 1. Maintain a constant evaporating pressure and thereby a constant surface temperature on the evaporator. The regulation is modulating. By throttling in the suction line, the amount of refrigerant gas is matched to the evaporator load. 2. Protect against an evaporating pressure that is too low (e.g. as protection against freezing in a water chiller). The regulator closes when the pressure in the evaporator falls below the set value. 3. Differentiate between the evaporating pressures in two or more evaporators in systems with one compressor.

  • KVR category image

    KVR

    Regulating system KVR and NRD is used to maintain a constant and sufficiently high condenser and receiver pressure in refrigeration and air conditioning plant with air-cooled condensers. KVR can also be used together with receiver pressure regulator, type KVD.

  • OFV / OFV SS category image

    OFV / OFV SS

    OFV are angle-way pressure regulating valves, which have adjustable opening pressure and cover the deferential pressure range (ΔP): 2 - 8 bar (29 ‑ 116 psi). The valve can be closed manually, e.g. during plant service and have backseating, enabling the spindle seal to be replaced with the valve still under pressure. The valves are especially designed to prevent fluttering due to low velocity and/or low density. In consequence it is possible to apply the valves with wide fluctuations in capacity demands, i.e. from maximum performance to part load. A flexible O-ring provides perfect sealing over the seat.
