Danfoss 027H1085 ICMTS 20A Motor Valve for Transcritical CO2

Description

ICMTS 20A: a 140 bar motor-operated expansion valve for transcritical CO2

Danfoss 027H1085 is an ICMTS 20A, the high-pressure motor-operated valve of the ICM family for transcritical CO2 (R744) systems. The steel body has 25 mm (1 in) butt-weld connections to EN 10220, a Kv value of 0.6 m3/h and a maximum working pressure of 140 bar (2030 psig); the maximum operating pressure differential is 90 bar (1305 psig).

The temperature range is -60 to 120 C. Approvals shown are CE, CRN, EAC and UA, and the page lists the EKC 326A as a compatible Danfoss controller. The valve is moved by an ICAD 600B-TS actuator and has manual operation through the ICAD setting or the multifunction tool, with a 3 s open/close time.

Transcritical CO2 high-pressure control

In a transcritical booster system the gas cooler outlet must be held at a pressure that is optimal for the heat-rejection conditions, and a high-pressure expansion valve does this. The ICMTS is intended for exactly that duty, whereas the ICM 20-A has a 52 bar limit and cannot be used here.

Because CO2 expands through a very large pressure difference, the valve is selected from Kv and flash-gas conditions; the data sheet for ICMTS with ICAD 600B-TS gives capacity charts. The valve is used with a high-pressure controller that reads gas-cooler outlet pressure and temperature.

Ordering and commissioning notes

Order the ICAD 600B-TS actuator with the valve body; the ICAD 600B for ICM is not the same part. Weld the body with the internals protected and follow the installation guide for ICMTS with ICAD 600B-TS for torque and orientation.

Confirm the pressure class of the rest of the high-side circuit, the controller (EKC 326A or equivalent) and the required Kv before ordering. A different ICMTS size, such as 20B or 20C, covers a higher flow.

Other types and sizes from the same Danfoss family that appear in the Danfoss store listing include ICMTS 20 A33 (027H1084), ICMTS 20B (027H1086), ICMTS 20C (027H1087), ICMTS 20B66 (027H1093). These are listed for orientation only; each has its own datasheet values, so check size, connection and version before ordering.

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

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.
