Schneider Electric (Erie) VM2323 Valve Body

The Schneider Electric (Erie) VM2323 Valve Body is a professional-grade hydronic component engineered for precise flow regulation in demanding HVAC contexts. This 2-way modulating valve body features a 3/4" NPT threaded connection and a 4.0 Cv flow coefficient, making it an ideal choice for maintaining thermal stability in fan coil units, VAV reheat applications, and air handlers. Built with a rugged forged brass housing, the body is rated for static pressures up to 300 psig, ensuring reliable performance in closed-loop chilled and hot water systems. Designed as part of the Erie PopTop series, this valve utilizes a snap-on mounting system that allows contractors to install the actuator without additional linkages or complex calibration, significantly reducing field labor time.

Technical performance is optimized for proportional control, using an equal percentage flow characteristic for the 1.0 to 4.0 Cv range to prevent hunting and ensure steady-state temperature management. The VM2323 is compatible with Schneider Electric zone valve actuators from the PopTop series, supporting both floating and proportional signal inputs. With a media temperature range of 32° to 200°F and a leakage rating that meets ANSI Class IV standards, this hardware provides the tight close-off and operational longevity required for high-efficiency mechanical rooms. When replacing existing HVAC zone valves, this 3/4 inch NPT model is the industry standard for direct-acting modulating service.

• Efficient Installation: The Erie PopTop design enables one-handed actuator removal and engagement, streamlining maintenance in tight mechanical spaces.
• High Pressure Resilience: Rated for 300 psig, the forged brass body is suitable for high-rise hydronic applications and complex hydronic heating systems.
• Precise Modulation: Provides superior HVAC flow control with an equal percentage characteristic, ideal for stabilizing discharge air temperatures.
• Superior Seal: Engineered to ANSI Class IV leakage standards, ensuring minimal energy loss when the valve is in the closed position.
• Broad Compatibility: Standard 3/4" NPT threads and a 4.0 Cv rating make this a versatile replacement valve body for diverse terminal equipment.

Is the VM2323 rated for steam applications?
No, this valve body is designed for hot and chilled water or glycol solutions (up to 60%). It is not rated for steam use.

Which actuators are compatible with this valve body?
The VM2323 is designed to work with Erie PopTop modulating actuators, including the AP (proportional) and AT (floating) series.

Does this valve body include the actuator?
This SKU is for the valve body only. The motorized actuator must be purchased separately based on your specific control signal requirements.
