Alternative Refrigerants

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document serves as a comprehensive guide for selecting Sporlan refrigeration valves compatible with alternative refrigerants. It covers thermostatic expansion valves, refrigerant distributors, solenoid valves, crankcase pressure regulating valves, evaporator pressure regulating valves, and discharge bypass valves. The focus is on ensuring compatibility with new refrigerants as they become more prevalent in the industry.
Specifications: Detailed capacity ratings are provided for alternative refrigerants such as R-123, R-125, R-134a, R-401A, R-401B, R-402A, R-402B, R-404A, R-410A, R-507, and R-717. The document includes pressure drop data, refrigerant liquid correction factors, and valve capacities under various conditions.
Selection Example: An example is provided for selecting a valve for Refrigerant 134a in a refrigeration application, recommending the EGJE-1-C or EBFJE-A-C valve based on calculated capacity.
Recommended Thermostatic Elements: Lists of recommended thermostatic charges for different refrigerants and applications are included, noting that many charges for alternative refrigerants are identical to standard Refrigerant 12 and 502 charges.
Capacity Charts: Supplemental capacity charts for thermostatic expansion valves (TEVs) are provided, showing capacities for various alternative refrigerants with correction factors for liquid refrigerant density and net refrigerating effect.
Conclusion: The catalog emphasizes consulting specific bulletins for detailed product information and encourages contacting Sporlan representatives for assistance with alternative refrigerants.
Solenoid Valves Overview: Specifications and capacities for solenoid valves used in refrigeration systems are detailed, focusing on refrigerants like R-401B, R-402A, R-402B, R-404A, and R-507. Tables of valve capacities under various conditions and correction factors for liquid temperatures are included.
Procedures: Examples for calculating valve capacities using liquid temperature correction factors are provided, ensuring accurate capacity calculations across different operating conditions.
Correction Factors: Liquid temperature correction factors are provided for each refrigerant, applicable across a range of evaporator temperatures from 40°F to -40°F.
Recommendations: The document suggests using correction factors for accurate capacity calculations, ensuring optimal performance of refrigeration systems.
CRO and CROT Valves Overview: Specifications and performance data for CRO and CROT series valves are provided, including capacity tables for different refrigerants and operating conditions.
Standards and Norms: Adherence to ARI standard capacities is noted, with correction factors for liquid temperature provided to adjust capacity ratings according to different operating conditions.
Key Data from Tables: Valve capacities for various refrigerants and pressure settings are presented, with capacity multipliers for different pressure changes and correction factors for liquid temperatures ranging from 0°F to 100°F.
Best Practices: Ensure correct valve selection by considering specific conditions of the refrigeration system, including evaporator temperature, pressure drop, and refrigerant type. Use provided correction factors to adjust capacities for different liquid temperatures.

Alternative Refrigerants-1

his catalog supplements the product bulletins forvarious Sporlan products covered in the followingbulletins:Bulletin 10-10 Thermostatic Expansion ValvesBulletin 20-10 Refrigerant Distributors Bulletin 30-10 Solenoid ValvesBulletin 90-10 Crankcase Pressure Regulating ValvesBulletins 90-20 & 90-20-1 Evaporator Pressure Regulating ValvesBulletin 90-40 Discharge Bypass ValvesRefer to the specific bulletin covering the productconsidered for complete details on the specific product including design, theory of operation, selection procedure,and capacity ratings for Refrigerants 12, 22, 502 andother more standard refrigerants. Since there are numerous alternative refrigerants being tested to replace the more common refrigerants, it has been a goal of Sporlan to publish as much information as possible toaid in the selection of valves and components used withthese new refrigerants. As thermodynamic data becomes available, capacity ratings for various products will beadded to Sporlans product selection computer program.As the alternative refrigerants find wider use in the industry, it is obvious that an additional format isnecessary to reach all customers. Therefore, this catalogsupplies information on the products mentioned in the previous column. As additional information becomesavailable, capacity ratings will be published for otherproducts as well.For additional information on the application ofSporlan products on the alternative refrigerants, please contact your Sporlan representative or SporlanValve Company. size="-2">
