Sporlan kt-83-vw Power Element 5 Foot Capillary Replacement 180887P

Product Description

The Sporlan KT-83-VW is a replacement power element kit designed for use with Sporlan thermostatic expansion valves (TXVs) in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. This power element ships with a 5-foot capillary tube, giving technicians the length needed for proper routing and installation in a wide range of equipment configurations. Sporlan, a division of Parker Hannifin, is a well-established name in refrigeration controls, and the KT-83-VW is an OEM-grade component built to the same standards as the original factory part. It carries the Parker Sporlan factory warranty and is manufactured as new original equipment, not refurbished or aftermarket.

Power elements are a critical part of any thermostatic expansion valve. The power element senses refrigerant temperature at the evaporator outlet through the capillary tube and bulb assembly. It translates that temperature reading into mechanical force that opens or closes the valve, controlling refrigerant flow into the evaporator. When a power element fails, the TXV loses its ability to regulate superheat correctly. This leads to problems like flooding the compressor with liquid refrigerant or starving the evaporator. Replacing the power element restores precise superheat control without requiring a full valve replacement, saving time and cost on the service call.

HVAC-R technicians and refrigeration service professionals rely on Sporlan TXV components for commercial refrigeration units, walk-in coolers, reach-in cases, rooftop units, and split systems. The KT-83-VW is a direct replacement power element, making it a practical part to stock for planned maintenance or emergency repairs. The 5-foot capillary length provides flexibility for installations where the sensing bulb must be located at some distance from the valve body.

• OEM replacement power element for compatible Sporlan thermostatic expansion valves
• Includes 5-foot capillary tube for flexible sensing bulb placement during installation
• Factory new original equipment with Parker Sporlan factory warranty

Product Highlights

The Sporlan KT-83-VW delivers OEM-quality superheat control as a direct replacement power element with a 5-foot capillary, restoring TXV performance in refrigeration and HVAC-R systems quickly and reliably.
