Johnson Controls VG7243CT 1/2" NPT 2-Way Globe Valve Body Equal Percentage 0.73 Cv

The Johnson Controls VG7243CT is a 2-way, normally open globe valve body from the VG7000 Series, engineered for precise flow control in commercial and industrial HVAC hydronic systems. Featuring a cast bronze body with stainless steel trim (stem and seat), this valve body is built for long-term reliability in demanding heating and cooling applications.

With a 0.73 Cv flow coefficient and 1/2 in. NPT threaded connections, the VG7243CT delivers an equal percentage flow characteristic, allowing fine-tuned modulation of hot water, chilled water, 50/50 glycol solutions, and saturated steam. The valve body is rated to ANSI/ASME B16.15 Class 250 and supports a maximum static pressure of 400 psig at temperatures up to 150°F, decreasing to 308 psig at 338°F.
