Johnson Controls VG7281ET Valve
The Johnson Controls VG7281ET is an industrial-grade 2-way normally open globe valve designed for high-precision regulation of hot water, chilled water, and saturated steam in commercial HVACR systems. Built with a rugged cast bronze body and durable brass trim, this 1/2-inch union sweat globe valve features an equal percentage flow characteristic to ensure linear heat transfer across various load conditions. With a 1.8 Cv rating and a 100:1 rangeability, it provides the tight control required for modern AEO-optimized building automation. This VG7000 series valve utilizes a standard threaded stem and is engineered for push down to close (PDTC) action, making it a reliable choice for field or factory assembly with M9000 series electric actuators or pneumatic controllers. It handles fluid temperatures up to 284°F and is rated for ANSI Class 250 service, ensuring dependable performance in demanding hydronic and steam applications.
Key Benefits of the VG7281ET- Precision Flow Regulation: Features equal percentage flow for steady temperature control and reduced hunting.
- High-Pressure Durability: Rated for ANSI Class 250 static pressure, suitable for high-rise and industrial hydronic systems.
- Steam Compatible: Engineered to withstand saturated steam up to 38 psi with specialized EPR packing.
- Ease of Installation: The 1/2 union sweat connection enables rapid integration with standard copper tubing without additional adapters.
- Universal Compatibility: Seamlessly pairs with Johnson Controls actuators, including the VA-4233 and VA-715x series.
What is the maximum temperature rating for this globe valve?
The Johnson Controls VG7281ET is rated for a maximum water temperature of 284°F (140°C) and saturated steam up to 38 psig (262 kPa) when matched with appropriate high-temp actuators.
Is this valve compatible with pneumatic systems?
Yes, as a standard threaded stem globe valve, it is fully compatible with both M9000 series electric actuators and standard pneumatic actuators from Johnson Controls.
Does the VG7281ET offer tight shutoff?
This valve is designed for ANSI Class IV leakage (0.01% of maximum flow), ensuring minimal bypass when the push down to close mechanism is fully engaged.
