Description
The Schneider Electric (Barber Colman) VB-8223-0-5-13 is a heavy-duty two-way globe valve engineered for precise flow control in commercial and industrial HVAC hydronic systems. With a generous 85 Cv flow coefficient and equal percentage flow characteristic, this valve delivers accurate, repeatable modulation across a wide range of system loads — making it ideal for heating and cooling coil applications where tight temperature control is essential.
Valve Design & Construction
- Valve type: Globe, two-way (single-seated)
- Connection: 3″ flanged (ANSI Class 125)
- Body material: Cast iron for durability and long service life
- Trim material: Brass for corrosion resistance and reliable seating
- Flow characteristic: Equal percentage — provides stable control across varying differential pressures
- Flow coefficient (Cv): 85
- Fail position: Stem Up Closed (SUC) — valve closes on loss of actuator signal or power
Performance & Application
- Equal percentage flow characteristic optimizes control loop stability in variable-flow systems
- ANSI Class 125 flanged body simplifies installation into standard piping systems
- Stem Up Closed (SUC) fail-safe action protects system from overheating or overcooling on actuator failure
- Compatible with Schneider Electric / Barber Colman valve actuators for complete assembly
- Suitable for hot water, chilled water, and condenser water applications
Typical Applications
- AHU and FCU heating and cooling coil control
- Central plant chiller and boiler distribution
- Building automation and DDC control systems
- Commercial HVAC hydronic piping systems
