Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2427 Valve Body

The Schneider Electric (Erie) VT2427 is a heavy-duty 1-inch NPT zone valve body engineered for high-flow hydronic systems demanding reliable two-position control. Built with a forged brass body and a 1.0" female NPT connection, this 2-way zone valve provides a significant 8.0 Cv flow coefficient, making it ideal for fan coils, baseboards, and air handler applications where minimizing pressure drop is a priority. As part of the Erie PopTop Series, it features a quick-release button that allows for one-handed actuator installation or removal without tools, streamlining your workflow during tight-space retrofits. This brass zone valve is rated for static pressures up to 300 psi and can handle media temperatures from 32°F to 200°F (up to 250°F with specific high-closeoff actuators), ensuring compatibility with both chilled water and hot water systems including up to 50% glycol concentrations and 15 psig low-pressure steam.

• Optimized Flow Performance: The 8.0 Cv rating ensures high-capacity fluid delivery with minimal resistance, reducing pump head requirements.
• PopTop Modular Design: Facilitates rapid serviceability; the actuator can be replaced in seconds without breaking the plumbing seal.
• Industrial-Grade Construction: Features a forged brass body, nickel-plated stem, and BUNA N paddle for bubble-tight shutoff and long-term durability in closed-loop systems.
• Easy Retrofit Integration: Standard 1-inch NPT threading allows for straightforward installation into existing iron pipe or copper adapter setups.

Is the actuator included with the VT2427 valve body?

No, the VT2427 is the replacement valve body only. It is compatible with all Schneider Electric (Erie) AG and AH series PopTop actuators.

Can this valve be used in steam applications?

Yes, this valve body is rated for low-pressure steam up to 15 psig, provided it is paired with the appropriate high-temperature actuator.

What is the maximum close-off pressure for this 1-inch valve?

For the 8.0 Cv model, the close-off pressure is typically rated at 17 psid with a general-purpose AG actuator and 20 psid with a high-performance AH actuator.
