Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2343G13A02A Valve Assembly

The Schneider Electric Erie VT2343G13A02A Valve Assembly is a high-performance 2-way normally closed zone valve designed for hydronic heating and cooling systems. Built for reliable two-position control, this 3/4 inch inverted flare assembly features a 3.5 Cv flow coefficient, ensuring optimal fluid dynamics in residential and commercial retrofits. Operating on a 24Vac power supply, the unit utilizes a robust spring return actuator to ensure positive shut-off during power loss. The integrated end switch allows for auxiliary equipment sequencing, such as pump or boiler activation, streamlining system integration. This PopTop series valve is engineered for quick installation and serviceability, making it a staple for contractors managing terminal unit applications like fan coils or baseboard radiators. Its stainless steel construction and high-temperature compatibility make it a durable solution for demanding HVAC environments where precise flow management is non-negotiable.

Key Benefits

• Efficient Flow Management: The 3.5 Cv rating provides excellent flow capacity with minimal pressure drop across hydronic zone valve applications.
• Simplified Retrofitting: The inverted flare connection is specifically designed for seamless replacement in existing piping layouts without extensive rework.
• Fail-Safe Operation: The heavy-duty spring return mechanism ensures the normally closed valve returns to its safety position instantly upon power interruption.
• Quick Actuator Removal: The PopTop design allows the 24Vac actuator to be swapped without draining the system, significantly reducing maintenance downtime.
• Integrated Signaling: The built-in end switch facilitates seamless interlocking with the master controller or circulating pump.

Common Questions

What is the maximum static pressure for the VT2343G13A02A?
This Schneider Electric zone valve is rated for a maximum static pressure of 300 psi, making it suitable for high-rise hydronic applications.

Can the actuator be replaced without replacing the entire valve body?
Yes, the PopTop series allows for direct replacement of the electronic valve actuator without breaking the 3/4" inverted flare pipe connections.

What is the purpose of the end switch on this model?
The end switch provides a dry contact closure once the valve is fully open, typical for triggering a boiler or a zone circulator pump once flow is established.
