Description
Schneider Electric (Barber Colman) VB-7213-0-4-11 Two-Way Globe Valve Overview
The Schneider Electric (Barber Colman) VB-7213-0-4-11 is a heavy-duty two-way globe valve engineered for precise flow control in commercial and industrial HVAC hydronic systems. Featuring a 2″ NPT connection and a flow coefficient (Cv) of 40, this valve delivers reliable, proportional regulation of hot water, chilled water, and steam applications. The equal percentage flow characteristic ensures smooth, stable control across the full range of valve travel, making it an ideal match for variable-flow systems and building automation environments.
Key Features
- Valve type: Two-way globe valve
- Connection size: 2″ NPT
- Flow coefficient: Cv = 40
- Flow characteristic: Equal percentage — provides precise, proportional control
- Body material: Bronze — corrosion-resistant for long service life in hydronic systems
- Trim material: Brass — durable internal components for reliable seating and sealing
- Fail-safe position: Stem Up Open (normally open) — valve opens on loss of actuator signal or power
- Compatible with Schneider Electric / Barber Colman actuator product lines
Application & Benefits
The VB-7213-0-4-11 is designed for use in commercial HVAC hydronic piping systems where accurate modulating control of water or steam flow is required. The equal percentage characteristic provides excellent controllability at partial load conditions — the most common operating point in HVAC systems — reducing energy consumption and improving system efficiency. The bronze body and brass trim construction resist corrosion and scale buildup, ensuring long-term reliability in both open and closed hydronic loops.
Compatibility
This globe valve is designed to be paired with compatible Schneider Electric (Barber Colman) electric or pneumatic actuators. Verify actuator compatibility and stem stroke requirements before installation to ensure proper valve authority and system performance.
