Acid Test Kit

The universal acid test kit provides a reliable indication as to the acid level of the refrigeration oil. It is quick and easy! They are for use with all refrigeration lubricants. By changing the percentage of oil sample taken, the acid number of the oil can be accurately determined. Phase separation of the chemicals eliminates interference from discoloured oil.

Water Dump Valve for Ice Machines

Ice machines operate like no other type of refrigeration equipment. The application challenge posed by the duty cycle of an ice machine is to balance efficient, productive ice making with reliable operation, low sound and cost. Operators count on their ice machines to provide quantities of ice year-round, and they count on their refrigeration contractor to keep them running at peak efficiency. Whether it's a new installation, field replacement or retrofit, the right water dump valve is essential for reliable, productive ice making.

Measuring Superheat
Where possible, always select a thermal expansion valve for the actual operating conditions rather than nominal valve capacities.
To determine the valve is working properly is by measuring its superheat.
The degree to which the refrigerant gas is superheated depends on
1) the amount of refrigerant being fed to the evaporator by the valve
2) the heat load to which the evaporator is exposed.
