Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2417G13A02A Valve Assembly
The Schneider Electric Erie VT2417G13A02A is a two-position zone valve engineered for precision fluid control in closed hydronic heating and cooling systems. Built with a 1-inch sweat connection, this 2-way normally closed valve features a high-capacity 7.5 Cv rating, ensuring a low pressure drop and efficient flow for fan coils, baseboards, and air handlers. The assembly includes the AG13A02A spring return actuator, which operates on 24Vac and includes an integrated SPDT end switch for seamless signaling to zone pumps or burner controls.
For high-reliability performance, the VT2417G13A02A utilized a hysteresis synchronous motor and is rated for a 300 PSI static pressure (400 PSI burst). Its unique PopTop design allows for tool-less actuator removal, simplifying service and installation tasks for hvacr contractors. This Erie zone valve assembly is designed for hot and chilled water applications with up to 50% glycol, utilizing a Buna-N paddle and forged brass body to maintain a tight seal and consistent on/off control across a temperature range of 32 to 200°F.
Key Benefits
- Efficient Installation: The PopTop actuator mounts directly to the valve body without linkages or calibration, reducing labor time.
- Fail-Safe Operation: Reliable spring return mechanism ensures the valve returns to its normally closed position upon power loss.
- Integrated Control: Built-in end switch allows for direct electrical interfacing with auxiliary equipment like circulator pumps.
- Durable Construction: Forged brass body paired with a nickel-plated stem and high-torque motor provides long-term service in demanding environments.
- Service Convenience: Manual override lever permits system flushing and manual operation without requiring electrical power.
Common Questions
What is the maximum close-off pressure for this model?
The VT2417G13A02A provides a close-off pressure rating of approximately 17 PSI, making it ideal for standard residential and light commercial zone control.
Can I use this valve for low-pressure steam applications?
No, the VT series is strictly for hot and chilled water. For steam services up to 15 PSI, the Erie VS series with a high-temperature actuator should be utilized.
Does the manual lever stay in place during power cycles?
The manual override lever will automatically release to the automatic (closed) position the first time the actuator is energized, ensuring the system returns to its programmed logic.
