Schneider Electric (Erie) VS3315 Valve Body

The Schneider Electric Erie VS3315 Valve Body is a robust 3/4 inch sweat 3-way zone valve body engineered specifically for high-performance hydronic and steam applications. Designed as part of the versatile Erie PopTop series, this 5.0 Cv valve body provides the high flow capacity required for demanding commercial and residential zoning. The forged brass construction and nickel-plated stem ensure durability in two-position steam valve body installations, supporting pressures up to 300 psig and handling media temperatures effectively. This mixing or diverting valve features a highly saturated nitrile paddle for bubble-tight close-off, meeting ANSI Class IV standards. Contractors prefer the VS3315 for its seamless integration with Erie PopTop actuators, allowing for quick, one-handed attachment without complex linkages. Whether managing 15 psig low-pressure steam or glycol-treated water, this 3-way sweat zone valve delivers the reliable shut-off and diversion critical for precise temperature control in hydronic systems.

• High Flow Efficiency: Features a 5.0 Cv rating to minimize pressure drop across 3/4 inch sweat connections.
• Steam Rated Reliability: Built for low-pressure steam applications up to 15 psig, utilizing materials that resist thermal degradation.
• PopTop Compatibility: Facilitates rapid service and installation through a button-release mechanism compatible with AG and AH actuators.
• Precision Sealing: The saturated nitrile paddle ensures 100% bubble-tight shut-off (ANSI Class IV) for energy-efficient operation.
• Rugged Materials: Forged brass body design handles static pressures up to 400 psi and remains stable in closed hydronic loops.

Is the VS3315 compatible with existing Erie actuators?
Yes, this valve body is designed to pair with Schneider Electric Erie PopTop actuators. It specifically works with two-position spring return actuators like the AG and AH series, provided they are rated for the system's media temperature.

Can this valve be used for both mixing and diverting?
Absolutely. The Erie VS3315 is a three-way valve body that can be piped for either mixing or diverting configurations depending on the flow direction and actuator orientation required for the specific coil setup.

What are the soldering requirements for the sweat connections?
When installing this 3/4 inch sweat valve, always remove the actuator first and ensure the paddle is not resting against the seat. Technicians should use lead or tin-based solder with a melting point below 600°F and cool the valve quickly with a wet cloth to protect internal seals.
