Danfoss 034N0084 CPCE 22 Hot Gas Bypass Capacity Regulator

Description

CPCE 22: a hot-gas bypass capacity regulator with an external pilot line

Danfoss 034N0084 is a CPCE 22 hot-gas bypass regulator, a capacity regulator that opens a bypass from the discharge side to the evaporator side when the suction pressure falls below its setting. It has 22 mm (7/8 in) ODF solder connections, a 7/16-20 UNF flare connection for the pilot line and an adjustable range of 0 to 6 bar with a factory setting of 0.4 bar (5.8 psig).

The data show a maximum working pressure of 28 bar (406 psig), a test pressure of 31 bar, a differential pressure of 18 bar and a medium temperature range of -50 to 140 C. The page notes that injection uses the LG liquid-gas mixer. Approvals are C UL US Listed, EAC and UA.

Capacity regulation with hot gas

When the cooling load falls the compressor may drop its suction pressure and cycle or run into a vacuum. By bypassing hot gas to the low side, the CPCE keeps the suction pressure up and holds the compressor running, avoiding frequent starts. The LG mixer injects liquid into the hot gas so that the bypassed gas arrives as a controlled-temperature mixture.

The capacity at the rating conditions (4 K superheat, 30 C condensing, -10 C evaporating) is 32 kW on R404A/R507A, 15.2 kW on R134a, 34 kW on R22 and 37.1 kW on R407C. Check the data sheet for the capacity curves with the actual conditions before sizing.

Installation and ordering notes

The external pilot line connects the downstream (evaporator side) pressure to the regulator through the flare fitting; fit it with a short line, avoiding traps. Install with the arrow in the flow direction and set the pressure with a gauge. Mind the compressor discharge temperature when large bypass flows are used.

Confirm the refrigerant, the setting range, the connection size and the mixer type before ordering. The same data sheet covers CPCE and LG, and the customer part number 00A426 is shown on the product page.

About brand

Danfoss is the Danish engineering group that makes refrigeration and air-conditioning controls, heating components, variable speed drives and mobile hydraulics. Mads Clausen founded it on 1 September 1933 at his parents' farm in Nordborg on the island of Als, after making his first refrigeration expansion valve in 1932. Nordborg is still the group's headquarters, and Danfoss remains controlled by the Clausen family through the Bitten & Mads Clausen Foundation.

Danfoss company profile

Founded 1 September 1933, Nordborg, Denmark, by Mads Clausen (1905–1966)
First product Thermostatic expansion valve for refrigeration
Headquarters Nordborg, Denmark
Ownership Private; majority controlled by the Bitten & Mads Clausen Foundation and the Clausen family
Size About 42,000 employees (2023)
Business segments Danfoss Climate Solutions (refrigeration, air conditioning and heating), Danfoss Drives (VLT and VACON frequency converters, soft starters), Danfoss Power Solutions (mobile and industrial hydraulics)

Milestones

  • 1932–1933: First expansion valve; the company is founded in Nordborg.
  • 1939: 26 employees. By the 10th anniversary in 1943 the company has 179.
  • 1950s: Rapid growth turns Nordborg into a Danfoss town with housing and schools for its workforce.
  • 1968: Danfoss launches its VLT frequency converter, one of the first mass-produced AC drives.
  • 2014: Acquisition of the Finnish drives maker Vacon, now the VACON brand.
  • 2021: Acquisition of Eaton's hydraulics business.

Choosing Danfoss products

For solenoid valves, check the operating principle. A direct-operated valve such as EV210B opens even at 0 bar differential pressure. A servo-operated valve such as EV220B needs a minimum differential (typically about 0.3 bar) to open, while an assisted-lift valve such as EV250B works from 0 bar. Coils are ordered separately, so the voltage on the coil (for example 230 V AC or 24 V DC) must match the control circuit. For drives, the VLT family is split by application: FC 51 Micro Drive for small machines, FC 102 HVAC Drive for fans and pumps in buildings, FC 202 AQUA Drive for water, and FC 302 AutomationDrive for demanding industrial duty.

Where Danfoss products are used

In Oman and the GCC, Danfoss drives run pumps, fans and compressors in district cooling plants, water and wastewater stations, desalination and building HVAC. Danfoss pressure switches, transmitters and solenoid valves are built into chillers, refrigeration plants, boilers and hydraulic systems, and AB-QM valves balance chilled-water circuits in large buildings.

Ordering Danfoss products: what we need

Send the Danfoss code number from the label (for example 032U7115 or 131B0149) or the full drive type code (FC-302P3K0T5...). For drives, add the motor power, supply voltage and any fieldbus option. For valves, add the size, connection, medium and coil voltage. For pressure switches and transmitters, add the range, output and pressure connection.
