THERMOSTATIC MIXING VALVE
Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV) Inspection –
This device has no user-serviceable or repairable components.
If it fails to maintain adequate compressor discharge temperature, replace it as follows:
FIGURE 9- 5 – Thermal Mixing Valve
1.
Be sure the unit is completely off and that no air pressure is in the oil reservoir and in the air cooled after
cooler. Close the service valve.
2.
Disconnect lockout and tagout the power supply to the starter.
3.
Unscrew the G1-1/2
” plug retaining the TMV assembly in place. Remove the TMV body and its spring from
the compressor housing.
4.
Inspect the valve seat surfaces for damage or foreign matter. Note its setting temperature
– it is stamped on
the valve seat area and will read
“55ºC” or “70ºC”.
5.
Immerse the valve body in a bath of compressor oil; heat the oil slowly and observe if the seat starts
extending about 5ºC below its setting and reaches full stroke at the stamped setting. Replace the device if
one of the following conditions is present:
a. The stamped setting on the valve seat is not correct. The Fixed Speed compressor package should be
fitted with the 55ºC TMV, unless by consultation with Gardner Denver, it has been approved to use the
70ºC element instead.
b. The seat fails to stroke fully at the correct temperature.
6.
Assemble the TMV assembly into the housing in the reverse order.
7.
Run the unit and check for leaks.
