Economizer Assembly — Each circuit on 30XW175,200,350,400 units has an economizer assembly. The 30XW150,325 units do not have an economizer and have one main electronic expansion valve. The 30XW150,325 units are controlled the same way as units with a separate economizer assembly. See Fig. 42.

Electronic Expansion Valve (EXV) — See Fig. 43 for a cutaway view of the EXV. High-pressure liquid refriger- ant enters valve through the top. As refrigerant passes through the orifice, pressure drops and refrigerant changes to a 2-phase condition (liquid and vapor). The electronic expansion valve operates through an electronically controlled activation of a stepper motor. The stepper motor stays in position unless pow- er pulses initiate the two discrete sets of motor stator windings for rotation in either direction. The direction depends on the phase relationship of the power pulses.

The motor directly operates the spindle, which has rotating

movements that are transformed into linear motion by the transmission in the cage assembly. The valve cone is a V-port type which includes a positive shut-off when closed.

The large number of steps and long stroke results in very ac- curate control of the refrigerant flow. The stepper motor has ei- ther 4260 (main) or 2785 (economizer) steps.

MAIN EXV CONTROL — Each circuit has a thermistor lo- cated in a well in the discharge line of the compressor (DGT) and another one located in the compressor motor cavity (SGT). Each circuit also has discharge and suction pressure transducer. Discharge and suction pressure as measured by the transducers are converted to saturated temperatures. The main control logic for the EXV uses discharge superheat to control the position of the EXV. The difference between the temperature of the discharge gas and the saturated discharge temperature is the superheat. The EXV module controls the position of the elec- tronic expansion valve stepper motor to maintain the discharge superheat set point.
