Estimating the term…
A valve for a refrigeration application, in particular a shut-off and/or regulating valve including a bonnet connected to a housing with two fluid openings, a spindle fully penetrating the bonnet and reaching inside the housing, and a piston with an upper guiding and sealing portion with a seal section, a bottom closing portion for opening and closing a fluid passage between the two fluid openings, and a piston tube between the upper guiding and sealing portion and the bottom closing portion. The outer diameter of the piston tube is smaller than the outer diameters of the upper guiding and sealing portion and the bottom closing portion. The spindle engages the piston for moving it between a closed position and an open position of the valve. Additionally, a pressure balancing chamber is disclosed above and within the piston, said pressure balancing chamber being connected to the fluid passage via a pressure balancing passage, wherein the piston is supported by the spindle and the bonnet during at least some or all open positions of the valve, and wherein the piston is sealed against the bonnet at the upper guiding and sealing portion.
