Schneider Electric (Erie) AG23B060 Actuator

The Schneider Electric (Erie) AG23B060 Actuator is a field-proven 120Vac two-position motor designed for direct mounting on PopTop series valve bodies. Providing reliable on/off control for hydronic systems, this spring return actuator is configured for normally open operation, ensuring the valve defaults to the open position upon loss of power. Built with a synchronous motor drive, it delivers consistent performance in terminal unit applications such as fan coils, baseboards, and air handlers. The unit features 96" wire leads for extended reaching in complex mechanical cabinets, eliminating the need for additional splicing in tight quarters.

As a seasoned tech, you know the value of the Erie PopTop connection—the "one-handed" removal allows for quick actuator replacement without draining the system or breaking pipe seals. This general close-off actuator is compatible with VT series valve bodies and handles a maximum fluid temperature of 200°F. The AG23B060 is the standard for two-position hydronic valve control, offering a 300 psi static pressure rating when paired with the correct brass forged valve body. Its 7.5 VA power consumption and failsafe spring return mechanism make it a staple for commercial and residential HVAC maintenance.

• Direct Replacement: Compatible with all standard Erie PopTop valve assemblies for rapid field service.
• Simplified Wiring: Integral 96-inch wire leads streamline connections in high-ceiling or deep-cabinet installs.
• Failsafe Security: Mechanical spring return fail-safe ensures normally open flow during power outages.
• Tool-Free Access: The quick-release button allows for instant removal from the valve stem without linkages or calibration.
• Robust Materials: Constructed with a stainless steel base plate and aluminum cover for long-term durability in mechanical rooms.

Can I use the AG23B060 with a normally closed valve body?
This actuator is specifically designed for normally open operation. While it will physically mount to any standard PopTop body, the system logic must account for the fail-open spring return state.

Does this 120V actuator require a separate transformer?
No, the AG23B060 operates on 120Vac line voltage, making it ideal for systems where 24V power is not readily available or where the existing control circuit is 110/120V.

Can this actuator be used in steam applications?
This model is rated for hot and chilled water up to 200°F. For steam applications, ensure you are utilizing a high-temperature rated Schneider Electric actuator and the corresponding VS series valve body.
