The Schneider Electric Erie VM3222 Valve Body is a robust 1/2-inch NPT three-way modulating zone valve engineered specifically for high-precision control in closed hydronic systems. Designed for veterans in the field, this brass 3-way mixing valve features a 2.0 Cv rating and is ideally suited for fan coil units, VAV reheat, and baseboard applications. The VM3222 utilizes PopTop technology, allowing for tool-free actuator removal and simplified field maintenance without breaking the line. This valve body is compatible with AP (proportional) and AT (tri-state/floating) actuators, ensuring reliable equal percentage flow characteristics for stable temperature regulation in both hot and chilled water service. With a maximum static pressure rating of 300 psi and forged brass construction, it meets the rigorous demands of commercial HVACR environments while maintaining an ANSI Class IV leakage rating to prevent energy waste and ghost flows.

Key Benefits
  • PopTop Linkage-Free Design: Quick-release actuator mounting allows for installation and servicing without any mechanical linkages or calibration.
  • High Cycle Life: Forged brass body with chrome-plated stem and thermoplastic plug offers superior durability in fluid temperatures ranging from 32°F to 200°F.
  • Precise Flow Control: The 2.0 Cv rating provides the necessary throttling for accurate modulating control in smaller zone applications.
  • System Versatility: The 1/2" NPT threaded connections and 3-way mixing configuration support a wide range of retrofit and new construction piping layouts.
Common Questions

Is the VM3222 compatible with both spring-return and non-spring return actuators?
Yes, this valve body is designed to work with Schneider Electric Erie VM series modulating actuators, including both spring-return and non-spring return models.

What media can be used with this valve body?
It is cleared for use with hot water, chilled water, and glycol solutions up to 50% concentration. Note that it is not rated for steam applications.

Does this valve come with the actuator?
No, this is the valve body only. Actuators must be purchased separately based on your specific signal requirement (0-10 Vdc or 24 Vac floating).
