Expansion valve
www.danfoss.com
EcoFlow™ helps achieve balanced distribution of refrigerant in AC systems and avoids maldistribution in evaporator circuits. Install it on the evaporator and it automatically monitors the flow of refrigerant into the evaporator, adjusting the flow to each circuit independently. Corrects uneven refrigerant distribution and reduces superheat temperature. Equally applicable in systems between 1- and 7-ton capacities. Danfoss.
