Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a 2-way and 3-way globe valve?
A 2-way valve controls flow by opening or closing a single flow path — used for on/off or modulating control. A 3-way valve has three ports and can mix or divert flow between two circuits, commonly used in heating/cooling coil bypass applications.
Can Schneider Electric globe valves handle steam?
Some models can. The VB-7211 Series (bronze body) supports steam, while the VB-8213 and VB-8303 cast iron series are rated for water and glycol only. Always verify the media rating for your specific model before installation.
What does Cv mean on a valve?
Cv is the flow coefficient — it represents the volume of water (in US gallons per minute) that flows through the valve at a 1 PSI pressure drop. A higher Cv means greater flow capacity. Proper Cv selection is critical for sizing valves to your system.
Ball Valve Assemblies
Pre-assembled Schneider Electric ball valve and actuator combinations for simplified installation in commercial HVAC systems.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| VBB2N01-M313A00 | 1/2 in | 2-Way | M313A00 — Spring Return, 24VAC | 0.7 | 0–10VDC / 4–20mA, N.O., NEMA 2, no steam | Request Quote → |
| VBB2N10-M333A01 | 3/4 in | 2-Way | M333A01 — Non-Spring Return, 24VAC | 0.3 | 0–10VDC / 4–20mA, Fail in place, NEMA 2, no steam | Request Quote → |
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the advantage of a pre-assembled ball valve assembly?
Pre-assembled assemblies are factory-matched and tested, reducing installation time and eliminating compatibility issues between valve body and actuator. They're ideal for new installations where speed and reliability are priorities.
What is the difference between spring return and non-spring return actuators in these assemblies?
A spring return actuator (M313A00) drives the valve to a fail-safe position on power loss — useful for safety-critical applications. A non-spring return actuator (M333A01) holds its last position on power loss, suitable for applications where fail-in-place is acceptable.
Zone Valve Assemblies
Schneider Electric Erie PopTop series pre-assembled zone valves for two-position on/off control. Designed for fan coils, baseboards, and air handlers in residential and light commercial HVAC systems.
| Model | Size | Configuration | Connection | Cv | Actuator | Media | Notes | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| VT2313-VS2313-Series | 1/2–1 in | 2-Way / 3-Way | Sweat / NPT | Multiple | Spring Return, 24VAC | Water, Glycol 25–50%, Steam (VS models only) | 2-position on/off, fan coil & baseboard — contact us with your spec | Request Quote → |
Frequently Asked Questions
What applications are zone valve assemblies used for?
Zone valve assemblies are used for two-position on/off zone control in fan coil units, baseboard heating, and air handlers. They open or close a zone circuit based on a thermostat signal.
What is the difference between the VT2313 and VS series?
The VS series adds steam compatibility. The VT2313 is rated for water and glycol applications only. If your system uses steam, specify a VS series variant.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a spring return actuator and why is it used?
A spring return actuator uses a mechanical spring to return the valve or damper to a fail-safe position when power is lost. This is critical in HVAC applications where an uncontrolled valve position could cause system damage or safety issues.
What is the difference between 2-position and proportional control signals?
A 2-position actuator is either fully open or fully closed — used for on/off control. A proportional actuator accepts a modulating signal (2–10VDC or 4–20mA) and positions the valve anywhere in its travel range for precise flow control.
What does an auxiliary switch (SPDT) do on an actuator?
An SPDT aux switch provides a dry contact output that indicates actuator position — typically used to interlock equipment like fans or pumps so they only run when the valve is open. Models with 2 aux switches allow two independent interlock circuits.
