Resideo VC8714ZZ11 Actuator

The Resideo VC8714ZZ11 is a high-performance 24VAC SPDT actuator engineered for precise control in hydronic systems. Designed as a non-spring return valve actuator, this component is fully compatible with VC1000 2-way valves and VC6000 3-way valves, providing a robust 60 psi maximum close-off rating. The direct-coupled mounting design allows for quick installation or head replacement without the need to drain the system, minimizing downtime for field technicians. With a nominal 6-second timing, it ensures rapid response to SPST or SPDT control signals from low-voltage thermostats. This model includes a 5-foot plenum-rated cable and a pre-installed SPDT auxiliary switch for end-of-stroke signaling or interlocking with secondary equipment like pumps or boilers. Each unit is supplied with a flexible conduit adapter, ensuring compliance and protection for HVAC zone valve control applications in commercial or residential fan coil and radiator setups.

• Universal Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with 1000-series 2-way and 6000-series 3-way cartridges.
• Superior Close-Off: Rated for up to 60 psi to prevent leakage in high-head pressure environments.
• Efficient Installation: Features a twist-lock head that requires no system drainage for service.
• Auxiliary Feedback: Integrated internal end switch provides remote verification of valve position.
• Plenum Rated: Includes a 5-foot plenum cable suitable for installation in ceiling spaces.

Is the Resideo VC8714ZZ11 compatible with 3-way mixing valves?
Yes, this actuator is specifically designed for use with VC6000 series 3-way valves, supporting both mixing and diverting applications in hydronic HVAC loops.

Does this actuator require a spring return for fail-safe operation?
The VC8714ZZ11 is a non-spring return (power-to-open/power-to-close) model. If your application requires a fail-safe position upon loss of power, a spring-return series actuator must be specified.

Can I replace just the actuator head without replacing the valve body?
Absolutely. The direct coupled design allows the head to be swapped on any compatible VC valve body quickly, which is why it is a preferred HVAC replacement part for existing systems.
