BALTIMORE, MD., Sept. 29, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Danfoss has developed the new TU with F-charge TXV to help OEMs meet the new DOE commercial refrigeration energy efficiency standards. The new F-bulb charge delivers low superheat in low and medium temperature refrigeration ranges, includes asymmetric ballast material that is proven to deliver more stable temperature control and like all Danfoss TXV bulb charges, is HCFC-22 free. Similar to current Danfoss TUA valves on the market, TU with F-charge valves feature laser-welded power elements that ensure diaphragm integrity, tough stainless steel capillary tubes, bi-metal connections for faster brazing and an exchangeable orifice design for reduced complexity.
Basic specifications:
- Designed for low, stable superheat control from -40 to 50°F
- Laser-welded power element
- Stainless steel valve body and capillary tube
- Bi-metal connections
- Exchangeable orifice design
- Compatible with R407A, R407F, R404A, R507, R22, R407C, R134a refrigerants
- HCFC-22 free bulb charge
Advantages:
- Increased energy efficiency: the new F-charge delivers low superheat in low and medium temperature refrigeration ranges and more stable temperature control
- Reduced complexity: exchangeable orifice design decreases the number of parts needed to cover the full refrigeration range
- Longer valve lifetime: stainless steel construction is corrosion resistant and laser welded power element protects diaphragm integrity
- Faster installation: bi-metal connections eliminate need for wet wrap
- Reduced set time: factory optimized superheat setting combined with new bulb charge requires little to no field adjustment
- Superior durability: stainless steel capillary tube strengthens the most common breakage point of TXVs
- Proven, environmentally friendly bulb charge

About Danfoss TXV bulb charges
For more than 80 years, Danfoss has been engineering innovative products to help improve the impact of refrigeration on our environment. Danfoss stopped using HCFC-22 and other ozone depleting substances in TXV bulbs more than 20 years ago, instead using highly-engineered bulb charges made from homogeneous mixtures of non-ozone depleting refrigerants and gases. All Danfoss bulb charges are created using precision processes in a controlled environment to ensure uniform quality. Danfoss has a proven global track record with millions of Danfoss HCFC-22 free thermostatic expansion valves installed that continue to deliver consistent performance and reliability.
