Schneider Electric (Barber Colman) VB-7213-0-4-8 Valve
As a veteran tech, you know that consistent flow control is the backbone of any reliable hydronic system. The Schneider Electric (Barber Colman) VB-7213-0-4-8 Valve is a rugged 1-inch NPT globe valve designed specifically for the demanding environments of commercial HVACR. Featuring a 14 Cv rating and an equal percentage flow characteristic, this two-way valve provides the precise throttling required for high-performance chilled water, hot water, and steam applications up to 281°F. The bronze body and brass trim are engineered for longevity, effectively resisting the de-zincification and scaling common in open-loop or poorly treated systems. Utilizing a stem up open (normally closed) configuration, it integrates seamlessly with Venta VB-7000 series actuators, ensuring high close-off pressure ratings and ANSI Class IV leakage protection. Whether you are performing a retrofit or a new build, this 2-way control valve offers the rangeability and field-proven reliability needed to eliminate hunting and maintain stable setpoints in critical loops.
Key Benefits- Precision Modulation: The equal percentage flow plug design ensures stable heat transfer and linear control response across the entire stroke.
- Industrial-Grade Build: Heavy-duty bronze body with brass trim provides superior durability in high-cycle steam and hydronic applications.
- Actuator Compatibility: Direct-mount capability with Schneider Electric Forta and DuraDrive series simplifies installation and reduces labor time.
- High Temperature Tolerance: Rated for media temperatures from 20 to 281°F, making it a versatile choice for both heating and cooling stages.
- Tight Shut-Off: Engineered to meet ANSI Class IV standards, minimizing energy loss through leakage in the closed position.
What actuators are compatible with the VB-7213-0-4-8?
This valve body is designed for use with the Schneider Electric Venta line, including the Forta and DuraDrive series. It features a standard threaded mounting yoke for rapid field attachment of electric or pneumatic actuators.
Can this valve be used for steam applications?
Yes, this model is rated for saturated steam up to 35 psig and 281°F, provided it is paired with the appropriate high-temperature packing and actuator linkage.
Is this a normally open or normally closed valve?
This is a stem up open model. Depending on your actuator’s fail-safe position, it is typically configured for normally closed operation in two-way water or steam loops.
