Refer to the QuickLIT Web site for the most up-to-date version of this document.
VG1000 Series Ball Valves are designed to regulate
the flow of hot or chilled water and, for some models,
low pressure steam in response to the demand of a
controller in Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning
(HVAC) systems. Available in sizes 1/2 through 2 in.
(DN15 through DN50), this family of two- and three-
way forged brass valves is factory or field mounted to
Johnson Controls® VA9104, M9106, M9109, and
M9100 Series Non-Spring Return and VA9203 and
VA9208 Series Spring Return Electric Actuators for
on/off, floating, or proportional control. For sweat and
press end connection valves supplied with an actuator,
the actuator is not mounted to the valve to allow access
to the end connections.
