Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2413G13A020 Valve Assembly
The Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2413G13A020 is a heavy-duty 2-way normally closed zone valve engineered for precise hydronic flow control in commercial and residential HVAC systems. Built on the iconic Erie PopTop platform, this assembly allows for one-handed actuator removal, significantly reducing field service time when troubleshooting fan coils or baseboard heat runs. The 1-inch sweat connection and forged brass body provide high structural integrity, rated for a static pressure of up to 300 PSI. Utilizing a 24VAC spring return actuator, the valve ensures a fail-safe closure during power loss, maintaining system safety and preventing unwanted heat migration. With a 3.5 Cv flow coefficient and a high-capacity paddle design, it delivers a low pressure drop while managing hot water, chilled water, or glycol solutions up to 50% concentration. This two-position zone valve is a reliable choice for contractors requiring a rugged, maintenance-free solution for general close-off applications.
Key Benefits- PopTop Actuator Design: Features a quick-release button for tool-free actuator replacement, simplifying maintenance in tight mechanical spaces.
- Fail-Safe Operation: The normally closed spring return mechanism provides a reliable positive shut-off if the 24V control signal is interrupted.
- High Flow Efficiency: The 3.5 Cv rating and specialized paddle minimize turbulence and pressure loss across the valve body.
- Industrial-Grade Build: Forged brass construction with a nickel-plated stem ensures long-term performance in closed-loop hydronic systems.
- Manual Override: Equipped with a manual operating lever to allow for system flushing or emergency bypass during commissioning.
Is the actuator replaceable without draining the system?
Yes, the Erie PopTop design allows the actuator to be swapped without breaking the hydronic seal, meaning no system drawdown is required for actuator service.
What is the maximum fluid temperature for this VT series valve?
This specific model is rated for fluid temperatures ranging from 32°F to 200°F, making it suitable for standard hot and chilled water applications.
Does this valve assembly include an end switch?
This VT2413G13A020 configuration typically includes a built-in auxiliary SPDT end switch for signaling secondary equipment like pumps or boilers.
