Danfoss 148G3095 HFI 050 High-Pressure Float Valve, 150 x 50 mm

Description

HFI 050: a high-pressure float valve for ammonia liquid-level control

Danfoss 148G3095 is an HFI 050 float valve with a 150 mm (6 in) inlet and a 50 mm (2 in) outlet, both butt-weld to EN 10220. The valve sits on the high-pressure side of an ammonia system and feeds liquid to a receiver or separator according to the float level. The nozzle size is 50 mm and the valve constant is 33.58, with a rated capacity of 800 kW (227 TR) on R717 for evaporating temperatures of -10 to 35 C.

The maximum working pressure is 25 bar (363 psig), the temperature range is -50 to 80 C, and the net weight is 39.49 kg. The body is steel and painted reddish brown, and CE, EAC and UA approvals are listed.

High-pressure float control

A high-pressure float valve is placed in the liquid line after the condenser, controlling the liquid level in a receiver or a liquid separator without electronics. When liquid rises the float opens the nozzle and passes liquid on; when the level falls the float closes. The method is simple and robust for central ammonia plants.

The HFI series ranges through sizes 040, 050, 060 and 070 and also appears in F and FD versions; capacity depends on the nozzle size and the pressure drop. Verify with the data sheet that the 800 kW figure suits your duty.

Mounting and ordering

At 39.5 kg the HFI needs support. Install in the level position given in the installation guide for the high-pressure float valve, because the float chamber must be at the reference liquid level. Weld with the float assembly protected and pressure test within 25 bar.

Confirm refrigerant (R717 listed), nozzle size, connection sizes and the required level control before ordering. Float expansion valve accessories and spare parts exist on the product page.

Other types and sizes from the same Danfoss family that appear in the Danfoss store listing include HFI 070 (148G0050), HFI 040 (148G3092), HFI 060 (148G3094), HFI 040 F (148G3102), HFI 050 F (148G3103), HFI 060 F (148G3104), HFI 070 FD (148G3422), HFI 070 F (148G3423). 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

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

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.
