This episode is all about controlling the evaporation and expansion process electronically using sensors, controllers, and two types of electronic expansion valves. Electronic control can provide a lot of benefits and is an important part of modern refrigeration systems.

In this chapter of Chilling with Jens, Jens discusses the thermostatic expansion valve—a key component in many refrigeration systems such as cold rooms or walk-in coolers. The TXV, or metering device, is installed to ensure correct and optimal pressure in the evaporator. Tune in to learn more about the TXV and its importance, and maybe even pick up some fun trivia bits along the way (hint: the TXV and Danfoss go back...way back).
