Use
The PTC conductive heating element ASR70 is used as an accessory on modulating
refrigerant valves:
● MVS661…
● MVL661…
ASR70 extends the application range of valves for refrigerant temperatures at the valve inlet
below 0° C. Typical applications include pump systems with ammonia or CO
2
refrigerant
machines.
The heating element must be under power as long as the refrigerant temperature at the
valve inlet is below 0° C and is below the valve’s ambient temperature.
The heating element can be switched off when a plant is switched off and the ambient
temperatures are below 0° C or when operating refrigerant temperatures above 0° C at the
valve inlet.
PTC conductive heating elements are not intended for use in potentially explosive atmos-
pheres.
PTC conductive heating elements in potentially explosive atmospheres are not certified nor
approved for use as per ATEX regulations.
Functions
Dynamic heating element to heat solids in very small areas.
