In a thermostatic expansion valve, a tube connection from a selected control point in the low-side circuit to the pressure sensing side of the control element so that the control-point pressure is transmitted to the actuating element (diaphragm or bellows). This connection provides a means for compensating for the pressure drop through accessories and the evaporator.

Le tube qui permet d'équilibrer ainsi cette pression avec celle exercée par le bulbe sur la membrane, s'appelle «tube d'égalisation extérieure de pression» ou «égalisateur extérieur» [...]
