Schneider Electric VT3212G13B020 Sweat Valve Assembly 1/2 Inch 3W 3.0Cv 120V

The Schneider Electric (Erie) VT3212G13B020 Sweat Valve Assembly 1 is a safety device for natural gas-fired HVAC systems. It's simply an automated shut-off valve built of tough brass to survive the rigors of natural gas pipelines. The valve is designed to withstand pressures of up to 40 psi and functions in temperatures ranging from -40° to 160°F. Its 1/2 inch sweat connector makes installation into copper pipe systems used in HVAC easier. When powered by 120VAC, the 1 valve opens, allowing natural gas to flow through the system. But that's only part of the tale. The true value of this valve is its automated shut-off feature. In the event of a safety risk, such as a flame breakout or a pressure spike, the valve automatically springs.
