4.3Water Regulating Valve

The water regulating valve automatically regulates the amount of fluid necessary to remove the heat from the refrigeration system, permitting more fluid to flow when load conditions are high and less fluid to flow when load conditions are low. The valve consists of a brass body, balance spring, valve seat, valve disc holders, capillary tube to discharge pressure, and adjusting screw.

Adjustment

The valve may be adjusted with a standard refrigeration service valve wrench or screw driver.

To lower the head pressure setting, turn the square adjusting screw clockwise until the high pressure gauge indicates the desired setting.

To raise the head pressure setting, turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise until the desired set- ting is obtained.
