Product Description
Danfoss NRV 12 piston-type check valve (non-return valve), OEM P/N 020-1118. Controls unidirectional refrigerant flow to prevent back-flow in commercial refrigeration and air-conditioning systems. The NRV opens at a low minimum pressure differential (0.05 bar / 0.72 psi). Straightway pattern, Face seal (metal gasket) connection 1/2 in face seal, inlet and outlet. Built-in damping piston. Max working pressure 46 bar (667 psig); media temperature -50 to 140 °C (-58 to 285 °F). Kv 2.37 m³/h (Cv 2.74 gal/min). Face-seal (metal-gasket) connections are approved for A1 and A2L refrigerants only. UL (C UL US Listed) and EAC. Refrigerant compatibility per the NRV/NRVH datasheet — verify against your system charge. Price on quote.

Standards & Compliance
- Material
- Connection tube copper; solder ring brass; sealing disk brass; piston stainless steel; spring brass; valve body brass; guide brass; washer PTFE with glass fibre
- Pressure Rating
- 46 bar (667 psig) max working pressure
- Temperature Range
- -50 to 140 °C
- Classification / Approval
- UL (C UL US Listed), EAC
- HS Code

Compatibility & Fitment
Install in the direction of the flow arrow. The differential pressure across the valve must exceed the minimum opening pressure differential (0.05 bar), including at the lowest capacity of capacity-regulated compressors. Braze the ODF solder ends with care to protect the internal seals. Verify code, connection size and spring variant (NRV vs NRVH) before ordering.
