Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2342G13B020 Valve Assembly

The Schneider Electric Erie VT2342G13B020 is a heavy-duty 2-way normally closed zone valve engineered for precision flow control in hydronic systems. Featuring a 3/4 inch inverted flare connection, this retrofit valve assembly is designed for seamless integration into existing HVAC terminal unit configurations, including fan coils and baseboard radiation. Operating on 120Vac, the high-torque actuator provides reliable two-position control with a 2.5 Cv flow coefficient, ensuring optimal hydraulic performance. The spring return mechanism provides a fail-safe closed position upon power loss, preventing unauthorized flow and protecting system integrity. Built with the PopTop actuator design, this unit allows for quick removal and replacement without draining the system, significantly reducing labor time during service calls. This PopTop zone valve is rated for high-temperature applications, making it a staple for contractors managing light commercial and residential hydronic heating loops where consistent two-way valve cycling is required.

• Universal PopTop Design: Allows for one-handed actuator removal, simplifying maintenance in tight mechanical closets.
• High Close-Off Pressure: Ensures positive shut-off against high pump heads to eliminate ghost flow issues.
• Inverted Flare Retrofit: Specifically engineered to replace aging valve bodies without extensive repiping or brazing.
• Synchronous Motor Technology: Provides consistent timing and extended motor life under frequent cycling demands.
• Field-Serviceable Construction: The actuator and valve body can be serviced independently to maximize uptime.

Can the VT2342G13B020 be installed in any orientation?
Standard practice dictates the actuator must be positioned above the horizontal plane of the pipe to prevents condensate or debris from entering the motor housing.

Is this valve assembly compatible with glycol-based systems?
Yes, this assembly is designed for use in closed-loop hydronic systems using up to 50% propylene glycol concentrations.

What is the maximum fluid temperature rating?
This Schneider Electric zone valve is rated to handle fluid temperatures up to 200°F, suitable for high-temp boiler loops.
