MVK and KF - Solenoid Valve and Strainer Assembly
The KF + MVK assembly combines filtration and flow control in a compact configuration for industrial and commercial refrigeration systems.
KF Mesh Strainer
The KF mesh strainer uses a washable element and is indicated for lines with fluorinated and non-fluorinated refrigerants, ammonia, oil, gas, water, and brine when confirmed for the project conditions. It can be installed independently or directly coupled to the MVK solenoid valve.
MVK Solenoid Valve
The MVK solenoid valve is direct acting or servo operated for liquid, suction, and hot gas lines with ammonia or fluorinated and non-fluorinated refrigerants. The design is intended to open and remain open with a minimum pressure drop of 0.15 kgf/cm2.
Assembly Benefits
Used together, the KF strainer and MVK valve provide a compact package that combines system protection, flow control, and practical installation.
