  • $146.90


The Schneider Electric (Erie) AH24B020 Actuator is a professional-grade, 2-position powerhead designed for rigorous hydronic heating and cooling systems. Built specifically for the Erie PopTop zone valve series, this 120Vac spring return actuator ensures a reliable normally open fail-safe position during power loss. Its high close-off capability allows it to maintain a tight seal under higher differential pressures, making it suitable for demanding commercial and residential HVACR applications, including those utilizing hot water, chilled water, or low-pressure steam up to 15 psi.

Engineered for longevity in challenging environments, this high temperature actuator features a robust internal motor and stainless steel base plate. The unit comes equipped with 18" wire leads for streamlined integration into existing control circuits. As a veteran-preferred Erie zone valve replacement part, the AH24B020 eliminates the need for complex mounting tools, facilitating rapid field installation on 2-way and 3-way valve bodies. Its synchronous motor provides consistent torque to overcome pipe debris and mineral buildup, ensuring smooth HVAC zone control duty cycles.

Key Benefits for Contractors:
  • Simplified Installation: The signature PopTop design allows the actuator to be swapped or installed onto the valve body without draining the system.
  • Industrial Durability: Rated for high-temperature media and high-pressure differentials, ensuring consistent performance in steam and hydronic loops.
  • Fail-Safe Security: Reliable spring return mechanism forces the valve to a normally open state to prevent system stagnation or freezing.
  • Universal Compatibility: Seamlessly replaces legacy Erie and Schneider Electric AH series powerheads on compatible brass valve bodies.
Common Questions:
  • Is the AH24B020 compatible with 24V systems? No, this is a dedicated 120V model. Using 24V power will fail to actuate the motor.
  • Can I use this for 3-way valve configurations? Yes, it is compatible with Erie 2-way and 3-way bodies, providing normally open operation on 2-way configurations.
  • Does it include an auxiliary end switch? The AH24B020 is a lead-wired model without an built-in auxiliary switch; check the AH24B022 if an end switch is required.
