The same features and design principles found in ther-mostatic expansion valves (TXVs) for Refrigerants –12, 22, 134a, and 502 are also incorporated in ParkerRefrigerating Specialties (R/S) thermostatic expansionvalves for ammonia. They have proven their value andacceptance in the industry for more than 65 years.

Refrigerant 717 (Ammonia) ApplicationsThermostatic expansion valves for ammonia applica-tions require special design considerations due to theerosive effects of ammonia vapor. For this type ofapplication, R/S has developed the Types D and Athermostatic expansion valves. Like other componentsof ammonia systems, the Types D and A valves aremade from steel and steel alloys. The materials usedin the manufacture of these valves are listed on pages4-5.

With ammonia systems, the formation of flash vapor atthe expansion valve port causes valve seat erosion orwire drawing to occur. This effect is further aggravatedby high velocity ammonia mixed with dirt or scalepassing through the port of the expansion valve.Fortunately, seat erosion can be minimized and valvelife extended if the following steps are taken:

1. Maintain vapor-free liquid at the TXV inlet at alltimes

2. Maintain clean ammonia through effective filtration

3. Reduce the velocity of the ammonia through theTXV port by reducing the pressure drop across the

port

Step 1 can be accomplished through proper systemdesign. Liquid line vapor is prevented by adequatelysizing liquid lines and providing sufficient subcooling.

Step 2 can be assured with the use of a ParkerReplaceable Core Dryer. This filter dryer is an effectivescale trap when used on ammonia systems. For fur-ther information on the use of this dryer with ammoniasystems, refer to page 15 of this bulletin.

Step 3 can be accomplished with the use of a remov-able discharge tube or the nozzle of a refrigerant dis-tributor. These components reduce the velocity andpressure drop at the expansion valve port by introduc-ing a restriction or added pressure drop in the valveoutlet passage.

The removable discharge tube is threaded into the out-let of the Type D valves, and the nominal 20, 30, and50 ton Type A valves. The discharge tube is the princi-ple difference between ammonia TXVs and TXVs used

with other refrigerants. Discharge tube sizes are listedin the Type D and A valve specifications on pages 4-5.

The discharge tube in the outlet passage must beremoved when the TXV is combined with a R/SAmmonia Distributor and Nozzle. If the discharge tubeis not removed from the valve, the combination of thedischarge tube and distributor nozzle may create anexcessive pressure drop resulting in a substantial lossof TXV capacity. Refer to page 8 for further informationon ammonia distributors.

The nominal 75 and 100 ton Type A valves do notemploy a discharge tube since their valve outlets aredesigned to serve as a secondary orifice to reducepressure drop across the valve port.

Thermostatic Charges for Ammonia ValvesThermostatic charges C, Z, and L are available for theType D thermostatic expansion valve. The Type L ther-mostatic charge is the only charge available for theType A valve.

The Types C and Z thermostatic charges provide oper-ating advantages for systems that cycle in response toa suction pressure switch or thermostat. These

charges are also recommended for systems using asmall capacity compressor. The table below lists therecommended temperature range for each charge.

Cold storage plants often have large centralized ammo-nia systems consisting of many evaporators connectedto one or more large compressors. This makes for fair-ly stable suction pressures. The R/S type L chargeresponds more quickly to changes in bulb temperature,allowing for a quicker pull-down of the conditionedspace temperature. Therefore, for large ammonia sys-tems consisting of multiple evaporators, the Type Lcharge is recommended.

These factors include corrections for liquid refrigerant density and net refrigerating effect and are based on an average evaporator temperatureof 0°F. However, they may be used for any evaporator temperature from -20°F to 40°F since the variation in the actual factors across this rangeis insignificant.

EXAMPLE: Actual capacity of nominal 10 ton valve at -10°F evapora-tor, 160 psi pressure drop and 60°F liquid temperature = 6.05 tons x1.08 = 6.53 tons.

These ratings are based on vapor free 86°F liquid refrigerant entering the TXV, a maximum opening superheat of 7°F, and a standard factory air test setting.

The following procedure should be used when select-ing a R717 Ammonia TXV:

1. Determine the pressure drop across the valveSubtract the evaporating pressure from the condensing pres-sure. The condensing pressure used in this calculation shouldbe the minimum operating condensing pressure of the system.From this value, subtract all other pressure losses to obtainthe net pressure drop across the valve. Be sure to consider allof the following possible sources of pressure drop: (1) frictionlosses through refrigeration lines including the evaporator andcondenser; (2) pressure drop across liquid line accessoriessuch as a solenoid valve and filter-drier; and (3) static pres-sure loss (gain) due to the vertical lift (drop) of the liquid line,see Table 1.

It is not necessary to subtract the pressure dropacross the refrigerant distributor when determining thepressure drop across a R/S Type D or Type A valvewith a nominal rating of 50 tons or less. These valvesemploy a discharge tube in the valve outlet passage-way, and it should be removed when a distributor isconnected to the valve. R/S distributors are normallyselected to provide a 40 psi pressure drop at designload conditions for ammonia applications. Removingthe discharge tube from the valve will compensate forthis pressure drop.

2. Determine the liquid temperature of the refrigerant entering the valve

The R-717 Ammonia TXV rating tables on page six arebased on a liquid temperature of 86°F. For other liquidtemperatures, apply the correction factor given in thetable.

3. Select valve from the rating tablesSelect a valve based on the design evaporating tem-perature and the available pressure drop across thevalve. If possible, the valve rating should equal orslightly exceed the design rating of the system. Besure to apply the appropriate liquid temperature cor-rection factor to the valve ratings shown in the tables.

Once the desired valve rating has been located, determinethe nominal capacity of the valve from the second column ofthe table. On multiple evaporator systems, select each valveon the basis of individual evaporator capacity.

4. Determine if an external equalizer is requiredThe amount of pressure drop between the valve outlet andbulb location will determine if an external equalizer isrequired. The recommendations given in Table 1 are suitablefor most field installed systems. Use an externally equalizedvalve when pressure drop between the valve outlet and bulblocation exceeds values shown in Table 2. An externallyequalized valve must be used on evaporators, which employa refrigerant distributor.

When the thermostatic expansion valve is equipped with anexternal equalizer, it must be connected. Do not cap off theequalizer connection, as it will prevent the valve from operat-ing properly.

5. Select the R/S Selective Thermostatic ChargeSelect the charge according to the design evaporatortemperature and the valve application. The subject ofR-717 thermostatic charges is discussed on page 3.

Selection Example:Refrigerant 717Application: Refrigeration, single evaporator systemDesign evaporator temperature 5°FDesign condenser temperature 90°FRefrigerant liquid temperature 80°FDesign evaporator capacity 5 tonsAvailable pressure drop across TXV Condensing pressure (psig) 166 Evaporator pressure (psig) -19

Direct Expansion – Steel & Aluminum Models –Flange ConnectionsR/S refrigerant distributors for R-717 function like ourconventional brass models.

Steel models – The distributor body is Type 8620 vacu-um degassed steel. The nozzle is Type 303 stainlesssteel, and the dispersion cone in the distributor ismade of Stellite.

Distributor tube connections are available for 3/16",1/4", and 5/16" OD steel tubing. The ODF connectionsare trepanned to facilitate welding the joint. A 1/8" NPTconnection is also available with Types 1130, 1133,and 1138 distributors.

Aluminum models – These distributors are designedfor R-717 aluminum coils, and they are 6061-T6 alu-minum. As with the steel distributors, the dispersioncone is Stellite, and the nozzle is stainless steel.

Distributor tube connections are available for 3/16",1/4", and 5/16" OD aluminum tubing. Aluminum braz-ing techniques require more space between circuitsthan copper to brass brazing. As a result, the maxi-mum number of circuits is less than for comparablebrass models.

Applying Distributors to Thermostatic Expansion ValvesAll Type D and Type A TXVs up to and including 50tons, employ a discharge tube. The discharge tubereduces refrigerant velocity across the valve port, pre-venting premature pin and seat erosion. When a distrib-utor is used with these valves, the distributor nozzleperforms the discharge tube’s function. The dischargetube must then be removed from the valve to avoidexcessive pressure drop.

Distributor performance is best obtained if the distribu-tor is bolted directly to the TXV outlet. When it is notpossible to bolt the TXV to the distributor, or if a shutoff valve is installed between them, use a short,straight piece of pipe to connect the two. The pipeshould not exceed two feet. It should be sized to main-tain high refrigerant velocities. Elbows between theTXV and distributor are not recommended since theyhinder proper distribution.

Ratings for Refrigerant 717 DistributorsFull load ratings are based on 30 psi nozzle, 10 psitube pressure drop and 86° liquid temperature enteringthermostatic expansion valve.

These factors include corrections for liquid refrigerant density and net refrigerating effect and are based on an average evaporator tempera-ture of 0°F. However, they may be used for any evaporator temperature from -20°F to 40°F since the variation in the actual factors across thisrange is insignificant.

Refrigerant 717 capacities are based on 5°F evaporating and 86°F liquid.

* “P” Dimension is the pull space required to change core.

Ammonia Parker Replaceable Core Filter DryersThe molded porous Replaceable Core Filter Dryereffectively removes scale and other fine particles –keeping the system clean – and prolonging the life of allmoving parts.

Small amounts of water are not considered a problem inammonia systems. Therefore, the “drier” function of thedesiccant core is not normally required.

The Type C-413-P is a sealed model filter-drier. All ofthe other models shown at the right are replaceablecore types. Use the RC-4864 or RC-10098 replaceablecores for excellent filtration ability.

Note: Do not use RPE-48-BD and RPE-100 FilterElements on ammonia systems.

Cores for replacement core type filter-driers are moldedof exactly the same desiccants that are used in the pop-ular sealed model filter-driers.

Cores are individually packed in metal cans, fully acti-vated, and hermetically sealed against moisture anddirt.

The method of mounting the cores on the end plate bymeans of tie rods makes them very easy to install andremove.

Parker Replaceable Core Filter Dryers with pipe con-nections are supplied with an envelope containing 5endplate gaskets. When replacement of endplate gas-ket is required, use one gasket from the envelope.

The R/S Level-Master Control is a positive liquid level con-trol device suitable for application to all flooded evapora-tors.

Description and OperationThe LMC is a standard thermostatic expansion valveequipped with a Level-Master Element. The combinationprovides a simple, economical, and highly effective liquidlevel control. The bulb of the conventional thermostatic ele-ment has been modified to an insert type of bulb that incor-porates a low wattage heater. A 15-watt heater is suppliedas standard. For applications below -60°F evaporatingtemperature, specify a special 25-watt heater.

The insert bulb is installed in the accumulator or surgedrum at the point of the desired liquid level. As the level atthe insert bulb drops, the electrically added heat increas-es the pressure within the thermostatic element andopens the valve. As the liquid level at the bulb rises, theelectrical input is balanced by the heat transfer from thebulb to the liquid refrigerant and the LMC either modulatesor eventually shuts off. The evaporator pressure andspring assist in providing a positive closure.

Installation – GeneralThe Level-Master Control is applicable to any systemthat has been specifically designed for flooded oper-ation.R/S is not responsible for system design and, therefore, isnot liable for any damage arising from faulty design orimproper piping, or for misapplication of its products.Figures 2 through 4 are piping schematics only to illustratepossible methods of applying the LMC valves.

If these valves are applied in any manner other than asdescribed in this bulletin, the R/S warranty is void. Actualsystem piping must be done to protect the compressor atall times. This includes protection against overheating,slugging with liquid refrigerant, and trapping of oil in vari-ous locations. R/S recommends that recognized pipingreferences, such as equipment manufacturers’ literatureand the ASHRAE Guide and Data Book, be consulted forassistance with this subject.

The valve is usually connected to feed into the surge drumabove the liquid level. It can also feed into the liquid leg orcoil header.

The insert bulb can be installed directly into the shell,surge drum or liquid leg on new or existing installations.Existing float systems can be easily converted by installingthe LMC insert bulb in the float chamber.The Level-Master Control may be installed at any ambienttemperature. The element is protected against excessivetemperature, created by the heater, by a thermostaticswitch that is an integral part of the heater assembly.

Installation – Insert BulbThe insert bulb should be installed at the point where thedesired liquid level is to be maintained. The bulb must bein contact with the refrigerant, i.e., NOT installed in a well.If the insert bulb is projected directly into the surge drum, itshould be shielded to prevent the possibility of splash fromeither the valve feed or the return from the coil. While gen-erally installed in a horizontal position, see Figure 1, it willoperate effectively at any angle or vertical position.

Minor adjustments in liquid level can be made with theadjusting stem provided on the expansion valve. The insertbulb assembly is provided with a lock ring and gasket jointso that the bulb may be removed without breaking thepipe joint.

Installation – Electrical ConnectionsThe heater is provided with a two-wire neoprene coveredcord two feet in length. It runs through a moisture-proofgrommet and a 1/2" male conduit connection affixed to theinsert bulb assembly, see Figure 2.

The heater circuit must be interrupted when refrigeration isnot required and the compressor is cycled off. This will pre-vent shortening the life of the heater thermostat. To accom-plish this, the heater is wired in parallel (on the compressorside) with the control or power relay, the holding coil of thecompressor magnetic starter, or the liquid line solenoidvalve.

Hand ValvesOn installations where the valve is isolated from thesurge drum by a hand valve, and a two to three poundpressure drop from the valve outlet to the bulb locationis likely, we recommend that an externally equalizedvalve be used. (See ordering instructions.)

Oil ReturnGeneral – All reciprocating compressors will allowsome oil to pass into the discharge line along with thedischarge gas. Mechanical oil separators are usedextensively; however, they are never completely effec-tive. The untrapped oil passes through the condenser,liquid line, expansion device and finally into the evapo-rator.

In a properly designed direct expansion system, therefrigerant velocity in the evaporator tubes and in thesuction line is sufficiently high to ensure a continuousreturn of oil to the compressor crankcase. But, this isnot characteristic of flooded systems. Here, we pur-posely design the surge drum for a relatively low vaporvelocity to prevent entrainment of liquid refrigerantdroplets and consequent carryover into the suctionline. This design criterion also prevents the return ofany oil from the low side in the normal manner.

And if oil is allowed to concentrate at the insert bulblocation of the R/S Level-Master Control, overfeedingwith possible floodback can occur. The tendency tooverfeed is due to the fact that the oil does not conveythe heat from the low wattage heater element awayfrom the bulb as rapidly as does pure liquid refrigerant.The bulb pressure is higher than normal and the valveremains in the open or partially open position.

Oil and Ammonia SystemsLiquid ammonia and oil are immiscible for all practicalpurposes. And since the density of oil is greater thanthat of ammonia, it will fall to the bottom of any vesselcontaining such a mixture, if the mixture is relativelyplacid. Therefore, the removal of oil from an ammoniasystem is a comparatively simple task. Generally, onsystems equipped with a surge drum, the liquid leg isextended downward below the point where the liquid isfed off to the evaporator and a drain valve is providedto allow periodic manual draining as shown in Figure3.

For flooded chillers that do not use a surge drum, asump with a drain valve is usually provided at the bot-tom of the chiller shell.

The above methods are quite satisfactory, except pos-sibly on some low temperature systems. Here, thedrain leg or sump generally has to be warmed prior toattempting to draw off the oil since the trapped oil

becomes quite viscous at lower temperatures. If oil isnot drained from a flooded ammonia system, a reduc-tion in the evaporator heat transfer rate can occur dueto an increase in the refrigerant film resistance.Difficulty in maintaining the proper liquid level with anytype of flooded control can also be expected.

With a float valve, you can expect the liquid level in theevaporator to increase with high concentration of oil ina remote float chamber.

If a R/S Level-Master Control is used with the insertbulb installed in a remote chamber, oil concentration atthe bulb can cause overfeeding with possible flood-back. The lower or liquid balance line must be free oftraps and be free draining into the surge drum orchiller as shown in Figure 4. The oil drain leg or sumpmust be located at the lowest point in the low side.

Capacity in Tons of RefrigerationThese ratings are based on vapor free (subcooled) liquid refrigerantentering the expansion valve (86°F for Refrigerant 717) and standardfactory setting. Because of the artificial superheat provided by the elec-tric heater, the Level-Master will have a greater capacity than a con-ventional thermostatic expansion valve.

R/S offers a sight glass with flange connections for useon ammonia systems. By using the sight glass, one canbe assured that solid liquid enters the thermostaticexpansion valve. The sight glass can be used to diag-nose system problems, and thus eliminate flash gas inthe liquid entering the TXV.

These sight glasses are specifically designed forammonia system use. The glass is fused into a steelbody, which is then cadmium plated. Two sizes offlange connections permit attaching the sight glass intothe system conveniently. The smaller flange size willmate with R/S Type DA thermostatic expansion valve,MA5A3 solenoid valve, and XD-074 strainer. The largersize will mate with Type AA thermostatic expansionvalve, MA17A3 solenoid valve, and 8006 strainer. Themating flanges, gaskets, and bolts should be orderedseparately. The bolt length varies according to the

assembly being made.The sight glasses are suit-able for a safe workingpressure of 500 psig. Theappropriate dimensionsare shown in the table anddrawing below.

During installation of thesight glass, tighten thebolts carefully and uni-formly to avoid putting an undue strain on the glass.The plating gives these products initial corrosion resist-ance. However, for long term use in an ammonia plant,they should be painted to obtain further corrosion pro-tection.

Safe OperationPeople doing any work on a refrigeration system mustbe qualified and completely familiar with the systemand the Refrigerating Specialties Division valvesinvolved, or all other precautions will be meaningless.This includes reading and understanding pertinentRefrigerating Specialties Division product bulletinsand Bulletin RSB prior to installation or servicingwork. Where cold refrigerant liquid lines are used, it isnecessary that certain precautions by taken to avoiddamage which could result from liquid expansion.Temperature increase in a piping section full of solidliquid will cause high pressure due to theexpanding liquid which can possibly rupture a gasket,pipe or valve. All hand valves isolating such sectionsshould be marked, warning against accidental clos-ing, and must not be closed until the liquid isremoved. (Tags are available for this purpose fromthe factory.) Check valves must never be installedupstream of solenoid valves or regulators with electricshut-off, nor should hand valves upstream of solenoidvalves or downstream of check valves be closed untilthe liquid has been removed. It is advisable to prop-erly install relief devices in any section where liquidexpansion could take place. Avoid all piping or controlarrangements which might produce thermal or pres-sure shock. For the protection of people and prod-ucts, all refrigerant must be removed from the sectionto be worked on before a valve strainer or otherdevice is opened or removed. Flanges with ODS con-nections are not suitable for ammonia service.

General InformationFactory Repair and Rebuilding For the convenienceof our customers, we have a standard factory repairand rebuilding service. Repairable returned regula-tors are disassembled, cleaned, sandblasted, wornparts replaced, reassembled and repainted.
