Charge Type
"W (all-purpose) liquid charge maintains nearly flat superheat control over a -40F to +60F (-40C to +15C) evaporator temperature range.
Z (low temperature) charge provides fast pulldown benefits like a gas charge with the non-migrating benefits of a liquid charge; usable over a -40F to 0F
(-40C to -20C) evaporator temperature range.
X (damped response) gas charge provides a pressure limiting (MOP) charge with anti-hunt characteristics over a -40F to +60F (-40C to +15C) evaporator
temperature range.
Notes: M.O.P. not available on W or Z charge.
1. Maximum operational pressure 500 psig (35 bar) high side and 275 psig (19 bar) low side.
2. Maximum storage temperature 130F (55C).
3. Consult Parker for pressure and temperature exceptions.
4. Do not use W or Z liquid charges in applications where bulb temperatures can exceed 130F (55C).
For these applications use type X MOP gas charge only.

N Series
This small flare brass valve series is ideally suited where space is at a
premium. Its stainless steel power element and compact body has always made it
the first choice for installation in commercial refrigeration systems. External equalized models are provided with a 30" capillary and 1/4" SAE flare nut, eliminating
the need to run a separate equalizer line. Medium, low & MOP X charges are
available as noted below.

Charge Type
"W (all-purpose) liquid charge maintains nearly flat superheat control over a -40F to +60F (-40C to +15C) evaporator temperature range.
Z (low temperature) charge provides fast pulldown benefits like a gas charge with the non-migrating benefits of a liquid charge; usable over a -40F to 0F
(-40C to -20C) evaporator temperature range.
X (damped response) gas charge provides a pressure limiting (MOP) charge with anti-hunt characteristics over a -40F to +60F (-40C to +15C) evaporator
temperature range.
Notes: M.O.P. not available on W or Z charge.
*May not be used on systems in which bulb temperature will exceed 130F (i.e. defrost). Contact Parker for pressure and temperature.
1. Maximum operational pressure 500 psig (35 bar).
2. Maximum storage temperature 130F (55C) .
3. Consult Parker for pressure and temperature exceptions.
4. Do not use W or Z liquid charges in applications where bulb temperatures can exceed 130F (55C).
For these applications use type X MOP gas charge only.

EBS Series
The EBS series valve is a brass bar body valve for R-22 and R-407C. The Type EBS
features a balanced port construction and extended ODF connections. The thermostatic element is replaceable. The balanced port construction makes this valve
ideally suited for air conditioning applications which operate over widely varying
conditions.

OE Series
The OE series valve utilizes balanced port construction to provide optimum operation on medium to large tonnage air conditioning systems. Two brass body styles
with copper ODF connections and a removable thermostatic power element provide
the stability and control required in a variety of applications, especially where there
are wide changes in load conditions. Body Style 1 has an R-22 nominal capacity up
to 30 tons, while Body Style 2 extends the capacity range to 70 tons.

These factors include corrections for liquid refrigerant density and net refrigerating effect, and are based
on an evaporator temperature of 0F. However, they may be used for any evaporator temperature from
0F to 40F since the variation in the actual factors across this range is insignificant.
TEV Capacity = TEV Rating x CF Liquid Temperature Example: Actual capacity of an SCE-B using R-407C
at a 40F evaporator, 125 psi pressure drop across the TEV, and a 80F liquid temperature entering the

These factors include corrections for liquid refrigerant density and net refrigerating effect, and are based
on an evaporator temperature of 0F. However, they may be used for any evaporator temperature from
0F to 40F since the variation in the actual factors across this range is insignificant.
TEV Capacity = TEV Rating x CF Liquid Temperature Example: Actual capacity of an SCE-B using R-409A
at a 20F evaporator, 120 psi pressure drop across the TEV, and a 80F liquid temperature entering the
TEV = 3.12 (from rating chart) x 1.19 (CF liquid temperature) = 3.72 tons

These factors include corrections for liquid refrigerant density and net refrigerating effect, and are based
on an evaporator temperature of -15C. However, they may be used for any evaporator temperature from
-15C to 5C since the variation in the actual factors across this range is insignificant.
TEV Capacity = TEV Rating x CF Liquid Temperature Example: Actual capacity of an HCE-3 using R-410A
at a 5C evaporator, 11 bar pressure drop across the TEV, and a 30C liquid temperature entering the
TEV = 10.5 (from rating chart) x 1.15 (CF liquid temperature) = 12.1 kW

These factors include corrections for liquid refrigerant density and net refrigerating effect, and are based
on an evaporator temperature of 0F. However, they may be used for any evaporator temperature from
-40F to 40F since the variation in the actual factors across this range is insignificant.
AEV Capacity = AEV Rating x CF Liquid Temperature Example: Actual capacity of an A7-B using R-409A
at a 20F evaporator, 120 psi pressure drop across the AEV, and a 80F liquid temperature entering the
AEV = 2.69 (from rating chart) x 1.19 (CF liquid temperature) = 3.20 tons

These factors include corrections for liquid refrigerantdensity and net refrigerating effect, and are based
on an evaporator temperature of 0F. However, they may be used for any evaporator temperature from
-40F to 40F since the variation in the actual factors across this range is insignificant.
AEV Capacity = AEV Rating x CF Liquid Temperature Example: Actual capacity of an A7-B using R-407C
at a 40F evaporator, 125 psi pressure drop across the AEV, and a 80F liquid temperature entering the
AEV = 3.35 (from rating chart) x 1.04 (CF liquid temperature) = 3.48 tons

These factors include corrections for liquid refrigerant density and net refrigerating effect, and are based
on an evaporator temperature of -15C. However, they may be used for any evaporator temperature from
-40C to 10C since the variation in the actual factors across this range is insignificant.
AEV Capacity = AEV Rating x CF Liquid Temperature Example: Actual capacity of an A7-B using R-507
at a 0C evaporator, 12 bar pressure drop across the AEV, and a 30C liquid temperature entering the
AEV = 9.11 (from rating chart) x 1.17 (CF liquid temperature) = 10.7 kW
