BULLETIN 10-10 — Page 19
**APPLICATION FACTORS:
1. The Sporlan Type ZP thermostatic charges have essentially the same characteristics as the conventional Z cross charges with one exception: they produce a pressure limit or MOP. The ZP charges are not intended
as replacements for the Z charges - they should only be used where a definite pressure limit is required to prevent motor overloading.
2. All air conditioning and heat pump charges are intended for use with externally equalized valves.
3. For dual temperature applications, use the “C” charge.
4. The “C” charge may be used on applications down to -30°F on R-22, R-404A and R-507.
5. R-410A elements for use with BQ, EBQ, and SBQ only.
