Overview
The Johnson Controls VG7842GT+3008EP is a high-performance pneumatic control valve and actuator assembly from the VG7000 Series. Designed for precise flow control in commercial HVAC systems, this assembly combines a 1/2-inch three-way mixing globe valve with an exposed yoke pneumatic actuator featuring a built-in positioner. It features a rugged cast bronze body with durable stainless steel trim, engineered to manage demanding water and steam applications.
Features
- High Reliability: Built with a cast bronze body and stainless steel trim for superior corrosion resistance and an extended operational life cycle tested over one million times.
- Precise Modulation: Incorporates a linear flow characteristic ideal for precise three-way mixing applications.
- Serviceability: Features an in-place valve repacking design to extend longevity and simplify maintenance.
- Robust Actuation: Equipped with a pneumatic actuator providing reliable operation with an 8 square inch effective diaphragm area and a spring-return fail-safe configuration.
- Enhanced Control: Includes a factory-mounted pneumatic positioner (indicated by the “P” suffix) for optimized response and positioning accuracy.
