Johnson Controls VG7243ET+3008E VG7000 Series 1/2" Two-Way Stainless Steel Trim Globe Valve with V-3000-8012 Pneumatic Actuator 9-13 psig

The Johnson Controls VG7243ET+3008E is a factory-assembled globe valve and pneumatic actuator combination from the VG7000 Series. This two-way, normally open valve features a 1/2" NPT bronze body with stainless steel stem and seat trim, paired with the Model V-3000-8012 exposed pneumatic actuator set to a 9–13 psig spring range. Designed for precision flow regulation in commercial and industrial HVAC systems, this assembly accurately controls hot water, chilled water, or saturated steam in response to a pneumatic controller signal.

Key Features:

• Valve Size: 1/2" NPT end connections
• Flow Coefficient (Cv): 1.8
• Valve Configuration: Two-way, push-down-to-close (normally open)
• Trim Material: Stainless steel stem and seat for corrosion resistance and steam service suitability
• Body Material: Bronze
• Actuator Type: V-3000-8012 exposed pneumatic actuator, spring-return, linear movement
• Spring Range: 9 to 13 psig
• Effective Diaphragm Area: 8 sq. in.
• Maximum Supply Air Pressure: 25 psig (172 kPa)
• Air Connection: Barbed fitting for 1/4" or 5/32" O.D. tubing
• Pressure Rating: ANSI Class 250
• Maximum Recommended Pressure Drop (Water): 35 psid for 1/2" valve
• Maximum Pressure Drop (Steam, Stainless Trim): 100 psid (690 kPa)
• Fluid Temperature Range: 35°F to 338°F (2°C to 170°C)
• Control Response: Two-way equal percentage flow characteristic
• Factory or field assembly available; standardized mounting kits allow complete actuator interchangeability
• Compatible with optional V-9502-90 valve positioner for enhanced control accuracy

The VG7000 Series globe valves feature Johnson Controls Ring Pack packing for industry-leading reliability and long service life. The standardized actuator mounting system allows easy field retrofit or actuator replacement without specialized tools. The stainless steel trim makes this assembly particularly well suited for steam service and corrosive media applications where brass trim would not be appropriate. ANSI Class 250 pressure/temperature compliance and tight shutoff design support energy conservation and occupant comfort in demanding building automation environments.
