Johnson Controls VG7243PT Valve
The Johnson Controls VG7243PT is a high-performance 2-way normally open globe valve engineered for precise proportional control in demanding HVAC systems. Featuring a rugged 1 1/4" NPT connection and a robust cast bronze body, this valve is designed to manage the flow of hot water, chilled water, or 100 psig saturated steam. The stainless steel trim and stem assembly provide superior corrosion resistance and longevity compared to standard brass internals, ensuring reliable operation in harsh hydronic environments. With a 18.5 Cv rating and equal percentage flow characteristics, the VG7243PT offers exceptional throttling capability, allowing for stable temperature regulation even at low load conditions. The standard threaded stem and "push down to close" action make it fully compatible with a wide range of electric and pneumatic actuators, including the VA-7000 and V-3000 series. This ANSI Class 250 rated valve is the veteran technician's choice for critical system retrofits and new installations requiring tight shutoff and industrial-grade durability.
- Enhanced Durability: The stainless steel trim prevents premature wear and wire-drawing, extending the service life in high-pressure steam and glycol applications.
- Precise Modulation: An equal percentage flow curve ensures linear heat output from heat exchangers, optimizing HVAC control valve performance.
- High Pressure Handling: Rated for ANSI Class 250, providing a high static pressure limit for commercial boiler and chiller loops.
- Serviceability: Designed with a field-replaceable spring-loaded PTFE and elastomer V-ring packing to minimize downtime during routine maintenance.
What is the maximum media temperature for the VG7243PT?
This valve is rated for fluid temperatures ranging from 35°F to 338°F, making it suitable for 100 psig saturated steam and high-temperature hydronic systems.
Which actuators are compatible with this threaded stem globe valve?
The VG7243PT features a standard threaded stem that integrates seamlessly with Johnson Controls pneumatic actuators (like the MP82 or V-3000) and electric actuators (such as the VA-7800 or VA-7150 series).
Can this valve be used for steam applications?
Yes, the stainless steel trim is specifically designed to handle the erosive nature of steam, whereas brass trim models are typically restricted to lower-pressure water service.
