Valves & Regulators
The Sporlan FBVE is a Type FB body thermostatic expansion valve for R-22 with external equalization — FB (body type) + V (R-22 refrigerant code) + E (external equalizer).
The Sporlan FBVE is a Type FB body thermostatic expansion valve for R-22 with external equalization — FB (body type) + V (R-22 refrigerant code) + E (external equalizer). The Type FB is one of Sporlan's legacy body designs: per Sporlan Bulletin 210-60, Type FB sits among the older families (alongside Types BI, I, and X) for which replacement valves are sourced through the OEM, Sporlan wholesalers, or Sporlan directly.
This makes the FBVE fundamentally a replacement-market product — and that is exactly where a 35-year distributor earns its keep. Plants across India still run FB-bodied valves; when one fails, the operator needs either the exact legacy valve or a correctly cross-referenced modern equivalent (typically from the F/EF or S families per current Bulletin 10-10). Refrigeration Controls supports both paths.
