Quick Response Expansion Valve and Precision

Superheat Controller Installation Guide

Application

Important: 

Use the Quick Response Expansion Valve (QREV) and Precision Superheat Controller

(PSHC) only as an operating control. Where failure or malfunction of the valve and controller

could lead to personal injury or property damage to the controlled equipment or other property,

additional precautions must be designed into the control system. Incorporate and maintain other

devices, such as supervisory or alarm systems or safety or limit controls, intended to warn of or

protect against failure or malfunction of the valve and controller.

Important: 

Utiliser ce détendeur de réponse rapide (QREV) et régulateur de surchauffe de

presicion (PSHC) uniquement en tant que dispositif de contrôle de fonctionnement. Lorsqu'une

défaillance ou un dysfonctionnement du détendeur et régulateur risque de provoquer des

blessures ou d'endommager l'équipement contrôlé ou un autre équipement, la conception du

système de contrôle doit intégrer des dispositifs de protection supplémentaires. Veiller dans ce

cas à intégrer de façon permanente d'autres dispositifs, tels que des systèmes de supervision ou

d'alarme, ou des dispositifs de sécurité ou de limitation, ayant une fonction d'avertissement ou de

protection en cas de défaillance ou de dysfonctionnement du détendeur et régulateur.

The QREV is a proportional control expansion valve that uses microelectromechanical system (MEMS)

microvalve technology to provide precise flow control for industry-standard HVAC and refrigeration

applications. See Figure 1. The QREV has a MEMS pilot valve that changes the pressure on the spool

valve. The signal from the PSHC controls the refrigerant flow. See Figure 2. Install the QREV at the

evaporator coil inlet.
