The Johnson Controls VG7243ET+7152G combines a high-quality ½” 2-way globe valve with a VA-7152-series non-spring-return electric actuator. This valve assembly is built with stainless-steel trim and a durable body, offering precise flow control for chilled water, hot water, glycol solutions (up to 50%), or steam applications up to 100 psig saturated steam. Its proportional control (0–10 VDC) or floating/ON-OFF modes make it versatile for building automation, hydronic heating, cooling systems, and commercial HVAC installations.
