Products / Parker / Refrigeration and Air Conditioning / Automatic Flow Regulator- AFR-3
The AFR-3 Automatic Flow Regulator provides for external adjustment of the flow rate.
Parker’s AFR-3 is a liquid flow control device
for overfeed or recirculated systems. Unlike pressure regulators or
expansion valves the AFR directly controls the flow of refrigerant
and maintains a constant flow rate of liquid to the evaporator. This
precise and direct control provides increased operational
efficiency. The AFR also serves as a check valve to prevent back
flow into the liquid line from the evaporator during pressure
reversals such as occur during hot gas defrost.
