Throttle
   
Throttle
The throttle forms a constriction. This constriction throttles the flow, thus dividing the refrigerant circuit into a high-pressure side and a low-pressure side.
Upstream of the throttle the refrigerant is warm while under high pressure. Downstream of the throttle the refrigerant is cold while under low pressure.
Before the constriction there is a strainer for dirt protection, after the constriction there is a strainer to vaporize the refrigerant before it reaches the evaporator.
  Note
t  -Arrow A- on the throttle points to the evaporator.
t  Replace the throttle after each opening of the refrigerant circuit.
