Johnson Controls VG7000-6011 Packing Kit

The Johnson Controls VG7000-6011 Packing Kit is a comprehensive field-maintenance solution designed specifically for VG7000 Series Bronze Control Valves equipped with stainless steel trim and 1/4-inch stems. This kit is essential for addressing stem leakage and maintaining the pressure integrity of 1/2-inch and 3/4-inch (DN15 and DN20) pipe size configurations. Unlike standard brass trim kits, this Teflon V-Ring Packing Kit is engineered to withstand the more aggressive operating conditions typically associated with stainless steel internal components, including saturated steam and high-temperature hydronic service in HVACR systems. The VG7000-6011 includes two precision-engineered PTFE V-rings and a specialized rubber V-ring to ensure a dynamic, low-friction seal that prevents valve stem binding. Each kit is supplied with a dedicated insertion/removal tool, a threaded bullet for stem protection, and specialized grease to facilitate a professional-grade rebuild. Using this genuine Johnson Controls replacement part ensures full compatibility with the factory stuffing box and maintains the valve's original leakage class of 0.05% of maximum flow.

• Enhanced Thermal Resistance: Engineered for stainless steel trim valves managing fluids up to 338°F (170°C) at 100 psig.
• Complete Maintenance Package: Includes essential PTFE stem wipers, stem guides, stainless steel springs, and bushings to refresh the entire stuffing box assembly.
• Reduced Mechanical Wear: High-grade Teflon V-rings minimize friction on the 1/4-inch stem, preventing premature scoring and extending the duty cycle of the connected actuator.
• Simplified Installation: Comes with a 3-inch crocus cloth for stem polishing and an insertion tool to prevent stem seal damage during the repacking process.

Which valve models are compatible with the VG7000-6011?
This kit is built for DN15 (1/2") and DN20 (3/4") VG7000 Bronze Valves with stainless steel trim. If you are servicing a valve with brass trim or a larger 3/8" stem (DN25-DN50), you will require a different packing series to ensure proper seating.

How do I prevent the 1/4" stem from binding after installation?
Technicians must avoid overtightening the packing nut. The nut should be tightened until fully seated, then move the stem manually to ensure free travel. The spring-loaded design of the VG7000-6011 provides the necessary compression without manual loading.

Can this kit be used in steam applications?
Yes, the PTFE (Teflon) components are rated for saturated steam applications. Ensure the valve has the standard extended bonnet used with stainless steel trim to properly dissipate heat before it reaches the actuator.
