Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2342 Valve Body

Maintain precise hydronic control with the Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2342 Valve Body. This heavy-duty 3/4 inch inverted flare zone valve is engineered for high-performance fluid regulation in fan coil units, baseboard radiators, and terminal heating or cooling systems. As a professional-grade two-way zone valve body, the VT2342 features a 2.5 Cv flow coefficient, making it a reliable choice for maintaining system pressure and flow balance in demanding commercial and residential HVACR environments.

Built for efficiency and rapid field service, this Erie PopTop valve body utilizes the industry-standard quick-release mechanism, allowing for actuator replacement without draining the system or using specialized tools. The 3/4" inverted flare connection is specifically designed for retrofit applications, ensuring a secure, leak-proof seal compatible with existing piping configurations. Constructed from high-quality brass with a 300 psig static pressure rating, this 2-position valve body provides the durability required for long-term cycling in both hot and chilled water applications.

• PopTop Quick-Change Technology: Features a one-handed removal mechanism for immediate actuator installation and simplified maintenance.
• Optimized Flow Control: The 2.5 Cv rating ensures accurate delivery of media, reducing pumping costs and improving thermal efficiency.
• Retrofit Ready: The 3/4" inverted flare design simplifies the replacement of older valve bodies in established hydronic loops.
• Rugged Internal Design: Rated for static pressures up to 300 psig and media temperatures ranging from 32° to 200°F (depending on the installed actuator).
• High Close-Off Performance: Engineered to deliver tight shut-off to prevent leakage and thermal ghosting in inactive zones.

Is the actuator included with the VT2342 valve body?
No, the VT2342 is the valve body only. It must be paired with an Erie AG or AH series PopTop actuator to function as a complete motorized zone valve assembly.

Can this valve be used in steam applications?
The VT2342 is primarily designed for water and glycol solutions (up to 50%). For low-pressure steam applications up to 15 psig, ensure compatibility with specific VS series components or high-temperature actuators.

What is the maximum pressure this valve body can handle?
This brass valve body is rated for a static pressure of 300 psig, though actual differential close-off pressure depends on the torque of the specific actuator used.
