Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2323H23B020 Valve Assembly

The Schneider Electric Erie VT2323H23B020 is a heavy-duty 2-way normally open zone valve designed for reliable control in hydronic systems. Built with a 3.5 Cv flow coefficient and 3/4 inch NPT connections, this two-position valve is engineered for high-performance fluid handling in fan coil and baseboard applications. Operating on 120Vac, the integrated spring return actuator ensures the valve returns to its default open position during power loss, providing fail-safe operation. This specific PopTop series assembly features a high close-off rating, allowing it to maintain seal integrity even under significant pressure differentials. Contractors favor these Erie zone valves for their modular design, which permits easy actuator replacement without breaking the line. Whether managing chilled water or hot water loops, the VT2323H23B020 valve assembly delivers precise flow regulation and long-term durability in demanding commercial and residential HVAC environments.

Key Benefits for Technicians

• Efficient Flow Control: The 3.5 Cv rating provides optimal flow for medium-sized hydronic loops.
• Fail-Safe Performance: The mechanical spring return ensures the system remains open if the 120V power supply is interrupted.
• High Close-Off Force: Prevents bypass and leakage in systems with high pump head pressure.
• Synchronous Motor Drive: Provides consistent timing and reduced power consumption during operation.
• Simplified Installation: 3/4" NPT threads and the compact PopTop footprint allow for quick retrofits in tight mechanical closets.

Common Questions

What is the maximum fluid temperature for this Erie valve?
The VT2323H23B020 is designed to handle water temperatures ranging from 32°F to 200°F, making it suitable for both heating and cooling applications.

Can the actuator be replaced without draining the system?
Yes, the PopTop series design allows the 120V actuator to be removed from the valve body with a simple push-button release, eliminating the need to drain the loop for motor service.

Is this valve suitable for steam applications?
No, this specific assembly is rated for water and glycol solutions only. Do not use this model for high-pressure steam service.
