Schneider Electric (Erie) VT3223G13A020 Valve Assembly
Professionals in the field know that reliability in hydronic systems starts with a robust valve body and a dependable actuator. The Schneider Electric Erie VT3223G13A020 is a high-performance three-way zone valve designed for mixing or diverting applications in hot and chilled water systems. Engineered with the Erie PopTop series' signature tool-less mounting, this 1/2 inch NPT zone valve allows for rapid actuator replacement without draining the loop, minimizing downtime and labor costs. Operating on a 24Vac spring return mechanism, it provides a crucial fail-safe by returning to its normal position upon power loss.
Built for demanding environments, this 4.0 Cv valve assembly features a forged brass body and a nickel-plated brass stem to resist corrosion and mineral buildup. The two-position zone valve utilizes a hysteresis synchronous motor, extending the duty cycle and preventing the common "stripping" issues seen in lesser plastic-geared components. With a static pressure rating of 300 psi and a close-off pressure of 25 psi, this on/off control valve is a precision solution for fan coil units, baseboard heaters, and air handlers where consistent flow and positive seal-off are non-negotiable.
Key Benefits:- PopTop Quick Release: Actuator can be removed with a single button press, requiring no tools or linkage calibration.
- Fail-Safe Spring Return: Ensures the system defaults to a safe state during power failures.
- High-Durability Build: Features a forged brass body and a 1/2" NPT connection for a secure, leak-proof installation.
- Synchronous Motor Technology: Designed to withstand stalling without burnout, offering long-term reliability in cycling applications.
- System Flexibility: Suitable for both hot and chilled water media with up to 50% glycol.
- Can the actuator be replaced without removing the valve body? Yes, the PopTop design allows the AG13A020 actuator to be swapped without breaking into the piping.
- Is this valve suitable for steam applications? No, this model is designed for water and glycol mixtures; for steam, the Erie VS series is recommended.
- Does this assembly include an end switch? The G13A020 actuator in this assembly is a two-wire model without an auxiliary end switch.
