Description

 

VG1000 Series Ball Valves are designed to regulate the flow of hot or chilled water and, for some models, low pressure steam in response to the demand of a controller in Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems. Available in sizes 1/2 through 2 in. (DN15 through DN50), this family of two- and three-way forged brass valves is factory or field mounted to Johnson Controls® VA9104, M9106, M9109, and M9100 Series Non-Spring Return and VA9203 and VA9208 Series Spring Return Electric Actuators for on/off, floating, or proportional control.Refer to the VG1000 Series Forged Brass Ball Valves Product Bulletin (LIT-977132) for important product application information.

 

Features

 

• National Pipe Thread (NPT), sweat, and press end connections — provide the right valve for a broad range of applications, reduce installation time while reducing the need for adapters, and increase system reliability

 

• 300 Series stainless steel ball and stem assembly — tolerates high temperature water or 15 psi saturated steam with fluid temperatures of -22 to 284°F (-30 to 140°C) or where a higher degree of corrosion protection is desired

• Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) double O-ring steam seal — provides a leak-free seal; the packing has been tested and is leak-free after 200,000 cycles in iron-oxide contaminated water

• graphite-reinforced Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) seats — include 15% graphite-reinforced ball seals, providing better wear resistance

• 200 psi closeoff pressure rating — provides tight shutoff

• 500:1 rangeability — provides accurate control under all load conditions

• chrome-plated brass ball and stem assembly standard — handles both chilled and hot water applications with a fluid temperature range of 23 to 203°F (-5 to 95°C)

• blowout-proof stem — protects the user from the risk of injury
