Johnson Controls VG7243ET Valve Body

The Johnson Controls VG7243ET Valve Body is a high-performance 1/2-inch NPT globe valve engineered specifically for technical HVACR applications requiring precise equal percentage flow characteristics. Featuring a ductile cast bronze body and stainless steel trim, this 2-way normally open valve is built for long-term reliability in water or steam systems. With a flow coefficient (Cv) of 1.8, it provides exact fluid regulation for terminal units and small heat exchangers. The standard threaded stem and push-down-to-close action ensure seamless integration with VG7000 series actuators or universal pneumatic systems. Designed to withstand up to 100 psi of steam and a maximum water temperature of 338°F, this Johnson Controls globe valve delivers the thermal resilience professional contractors demand. Its PTFE packing and ANSI Class 250 static pressure rating make it a dependable choice for high-pressure hydronic systems and commercial control valve replacements.

• Precise Flow Management: The equal percentage flow characteristic ensures stable temperature control in varying load conditions.
• Superior Material Durability: Stainless steel trim prevents premature erosion and corrosion compared to standard brass internals.
• Versatile Application: Rated for both chilled water and saturated steam services up to 338°F.
• Actuator Compatibility: Designed for direct-coupled VA-7000 or M9000 series actuators without the need for additional linkages.

What is the maximum pressure rating for this valve?
The Johnson Controls VG7243ET is an ANSI Class 250 rated valve, supporting up to 308 psi for water and 100 psi for steam applications.

Is this valve compatible with pneumatic actuators?
Yes, this normally open globe valve is frequently paired with V-3000 series pneumatic actuators or electronic equivalents like the VA7820.

Can the packing be serviced in the field?
This model utilizes high-quality PTFE packing; for specific maintenance procedures or seal replacements, consult the manufacturer data sheet for the VG7000 series.
