Schneider Electric (Erie) AG13U020 Actuator

  • $76.26


The Schneider Electric Erie AG13U020 is a heavy-duty, synchronous motor-driven actuator designed for reliable two-position control in hydronic systems. Operating at 240Vac, this normally closed unit features a fail-safe spring return mechanism, ensuring the valve defaults to the closed position during power loss. Engineered for the Erie PopTop series, it allows for one-handed installation and removal without tools, significantly reducing labor time on the job site. This model is the direct replacement for AG13U230, maintaining full compatibility with existing 2-way and 3-way zone valve bodies used in fan coil, baseboard, and air handler applications.

Designed for professional-grade durability, the AG13U020 utilizes 18-inch wire leads for secure electrical termination and a high-torque motor to handle standard close-off pressures. This HVAC zone valve actuator is ideal for 50/60Hz systems where precise flow control of hot or chilled water is required. The rugged construction and standardized mounting footprint make it a staple for contractors performing maintenance on Schneider Electric zone valves. By eliminating the need for complex linkages or on-site calibration, it provides a seamless fit-and-forget solution for building automation and residential hydronic controls.

Key Benefits
  • Tool-Free Installation: The PopTop design allows the actuator to be swapped or serviced without removing the valve body from the piping.
  • Fail-Safe Protection: Reliable spring return action provides a mechanical close-off to prevent system flooding or overheating during electrical failures.
  • Broad Compatibility: Functions as the verified AG13U230 replacement, fitting all standard General Close-Off (GCO) PopTop valve bodies.
  • Hydronic Versatility: Rated for fluid temperatures up to 200°F, making it suitable for both heating and cooling loops.
  • Compact Profile: Optimized footprint for tight installations inside fan coil cabinets and baseboard enclosures.
Common Questions
  • Can I use this actuator on older Erie Classic valve bodies? No, this actuator is specifically designed for the PopTop series; older classic bodies require a full valve assembly replacement.
  • Does the AG13U020 include an end switch? No, this specific model is a two-wire unit without an auxiliary end switch.
  • What is the proper mounting orientation? For optimal performance, the actuator should be mounted above the valve body, though it can be tilted up to 85 degrees from vertical if necessary.
