Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2517 Valve Body

The Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2517 Valve Body is a robust, 1 1/4-inch two-way zone valve engineered for high-demand hydronic heating and cooling systems. Built from heavy-duty brass, this 8.0 Cv valve body features a sweat connection for secure, leak-proof installation in standard copper piping. As a core component of the Erie PopTop series, it utilizes a quick-connect system that allows for one-handed actuator attachment without tools or complex linkages, significantly reducing field labor time. This two-position valve is designed for closed-loop systems, handling media from 32° to 200°F with standard actuators, and is rated for a static pressure of 400 psi. The VT2517 ensures reliable flow control for fan coils, baseboard heaters, and air handlers while maintaining a clean, professional finish on any job site.

Key Benefits

• Fast Installation: The 1 1/4-inch sweat connection and PopTop design allow for rapid valve body replacement and actuator mounting.
• High Flow Performance: An 8.0 Cv rating ensures minimal pressure drop in high-capacity HVAC zone control applications.
• Durable Construction: Features a forged brass body and stainless steel components to withstand rigorous mechanical room environments.
• Maintenance Efficiency: The pop-top mechanism permits actuator service or replacement without draining the system or removing the valve body from the line.

Common Questions

Is this valve body compatible with steam applications?
No, the VT2517 is designed for hot and chilled water or glycol solutions (up to 50%). For steam service, the Erie VS series is the appropriate technical choice.

Does this unit include the actuator?
This is the VT2517 valve body only. Actuators, such as the AG or AH series, must be purchased separately based on your specific voltage and end-switch requirements.

What is the maximum static pressure for the VT2517?
The body is technically rated to handle a maximum static pressure of 400 psi, making it suitable for high-rise residential and commercial applications.
