Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2222G13B020 Valve Assembly
The Schneider Electric Erie VT2222G13B020 PopTop valve is a heavy-duty two-way normally closed zone valve designed for hydronic heating and cooling systems. This 1/2 inch NPT valve assembly features a 2.5 Cv flow coefficient, making it ideal for precision flow control in fan coils and baseboard applications. Built with a 120Vac spring return actuator, the VT2222G13B020 ensures positive shut-off and reliable two-position control during power loss. The synchronous motor-driven actuator can be replaced without draining the system, thanks to the PopTop quick-release mechanism, significantly reducing downtime for technicians. This general-close-off valve is engineered for high-pressure setups, offering a robust solution for contractors managing complex HVAC piping layouts. Whether you are performing a zone valve replacement or a new installation, this Erie specialized valve provides the durability required for commercial and residential hydronic circuits.
Key Benefits for Technicians- Snap-fit Actuator: The PopTop design allows for one-handed removal, simplifying field service and maintenance.
- High Flow Efficiency: A 2.5 Cv rating ensures optimal fluid dynamics for efficient heat transfer in hydronic zones.
- Spring Return Reliability: Fail-safe normally closed operation ensures the valve returns to the closed position if power is interrupted.
- Standard NPT Connection: Conventional 1/2" female NPT threads provide compatibility with standard piping without the need for specialized adapters.
Can the actuator be replaced without breaking the plumbing line?
Yes, the PopTop series is designed so the 120V actuator can be removed from the valve body with a simple button press, allowing for electrical service without opening the hydronic loop.
What is the maximum operating pressure for this assembly?
This Schneider Electric zone valve is typically rated for static pressures up to 300 psi, though actual close-off pressure depends on the specific actuator torque and system configuration.
Is this valve suitable for steam applications?
No, this assembly is specifically engineered for water-based hydronic systems including chilled water and hot water applications.
