FUJIKOKI Thermostatic Expansion Valve Basics Fujikoki Corporation SYMBOLS GLOSSARY OF TERMS Bulb: The portion of a TXVs power assembly that contains the thermal charge and functions as the temperature sensing element. Capacity of an Expansion Valve: The refrigerating effect in BTU/hr or tons of refrigeration, produced by the mass flow of refrigerant that will pass through the valve under the conditions specified. Cross Ambient: Some portion of the TXV power assembly is exposed to a temperature lower than the evaporator exit temperature that is being sensed by the TXV. Dry-line: The point near the exit of an evaporator where the liquid phase disappears and superheating begins. External Equalizer: In a thermostatic expansion valve, a connection from a selected point in the low pressure part of the circuit to the system pressure sensing side of the actuating element such that the selected point pressure is transmitted to the actuating element (diaphragm or bellows). Gradient: Superheat change required to open the valve an increment of capacity, ie; the slope of the superheat-capacity curve. Initial Valve Opening: A minimal (0.002 maximum) but definite valve open position. Internal Equalizer: In a thermostatic expansion valve, an integral internal port or passage whereby the system pressure sensing side of the actuating element (diaphragm or bellows) is exposed to valve outlet pressure, ie; the p
