Johnson Controls VG1241FR Valve

The Johnson Controls VG1241FR Valve is a professional-grade 2-inch NPT ball valve engineered for precise two-way proportional control in commercial HVAC systems. This 29.2 Cv ball valve features a forged brass body and plated brass trim, specifically optimized for chilled water, hot water, and up to 50% glycol solutions. Utilizing a characterized flow disk, the VG1241FR ensures a consistent equal percentage flow characteristic, allowing for stable thermal discharge across varying load conditions. Designed for seamless integration with Johnson Controls VA9104, M9106, and M9109 actuators, this valve provides a high-reliability solution for air handling units and terminal reheat coils. With a static pressure rating of 580 psig and a 200 psi close-off pressure, the VG1241FR maintains tight shutoff integrity. The blowout-proof stem and graphite-reinforced PTFE seats deliver rugged performance in demanding hydronic loops, ensuring long-term operational efficiency for mechanical contractors and facility managers.

Key Benefits:

• Precise Flow Regulation: The integrated characterizing disk provides equal percentage flow, mimicking the performance of more expensive globe valves.
• High Close-Off Reliability: Rated for 200 psig close-off, preventing unwanted leakage and energy loss when the valve is in the closed position.
• Durable Construction: Features a forged brass body and EPDM O-ring stem seals for a 580 psig static pressure rating.
• Wide Temperature Range: Supports fluid temperatures from 23°F to 203°F, suitable for various heating and cooling applications.
• Standardized Threading: Features a 2-inch FNPT connection for straightforward installation into existing iron or copper piping systems.

Common Questions:

Is the VG1241FR compatible with steam applications?
No, this model features plated brass trim and is specifically rated for water and glycol. For 15 psig saturated steam service, a stainless steel trim version from the VG1000 series is required.

What actuators fit the VG1241FR?
This valve is designed to be field or factory-mounted with Johnson Controls VA9104, M9106, M9109, and M9100 series non-spring return or spring return electric actuators.

How should the valve be oriented during installation?
For optimum performance and longevity, install the valve with the actuator at or above the centerline of the horizontal piping to prevent moisture from entering the motor housing.
