Product Description
Danfoss NRV 12s piston-type check valve (non-return valve), OEM P/N 020B1012. Controls unidirectional refrigerant flow to prevent back-flow in commercial refrigeration and air-conditioning systems. Straightway pattern, Solder ODF connection 1/2 in (12 mm), inlet and outlet. Built-in damping piston suits lines subject to pulsation, such as the compressor discharge line. Max working pressure 49 bar (710 psig); media temperature -50 °C to 155 °C. For parallel-compressor (power-pack) duty with higher pulsation, the stronger-spring NRVH variant is the counterpart. Refrigerant compatibility is listed on the datasheet — verify against your system charge.

Compatibility & Fitment
Install in the direction of the flow arrow. The differential pressure across the valve must exceed the minimum opening pressure differential, 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.
