Zodiac JVA Valve Actuator Packout — 4424 180-DIG 24-VAC Replacement Module, 180° Digital Travel

The Zodiac 4424 180-DIG 24-VAC packout assembly is a direct replacement module designed to restore function to select Zodiac Jandy JVA pool and spa valve actuators (models 1240 and 2440).

This replacement packout assembly provides the electrical and mechanical components needed to revive a Jandy JVA actuator without replacing the entire valve body. Built to match the 180-degree digital travel and 24 VAC input of the original units, it lets technicians and pool owners return multiport and diverter valves to service quickly. The part is manufactured overseas and supplied as a modular unit ready for installation by a qualified technician.

What does this packout assembly replace and why would I need it?

This module replaces the internal packout used in Zodiac Jandy JVA actuator models 1240 and 2440. Typical needs include failed electronics, worn gears, or loss of accurate travel control. Replacing the packout often costs less than a full actuator replacement and preserves the existing valve housing and mounting.

• Compatible with Jandy JVA actuator models 1240 and 2440
• Restores 180-degree digital travel range
• Accepts standard 24 VAC supply used in pool control systems
• Useful when actuator internals fail but housing and linkage remain intact

How does the 180-DIG 24-VAC specification affect installation?

The 180-DIG designation indicates a 180-degree digital position control, while 24-VAC identifies the required supply voltage. Ensuring your system supplies 24 VAC and the valve requires 180-degree travel is essential for correct operation. Installation involves removing the old packout and seating the replacement module into the existing actuator housing per manufacturer guidance.

• Requires a 24 VAC power source common to pool automation systems
• Matches the original actuator travel range (180 degrees)
• Designed for drop-in replacement in compatible JVA housings
• Professional installation recommended for electrical safety and calibration

Which components and benefits come with this replacement part?

The packout assembly contains the core electronics and mechanical drive elements that control valve position. By swapping in this module you regain digital position control and reliable actuation without disturbing the valve body. The assembly is compact and intended to meet the original OEM form fit and function for the listed JVA models.

• Includes drive electronics and mechanical linkage for accurate positioning
• Preserves existing valve housing, saving time and expense
• Facilitates quick restoration of multiport or diverter valve function
• Manufactured to match OEM specifications for seamless fit

Are there compatibility or safety considerations I should know?

Confirm your actuator model number (1240 or 2440) and check that your automation system provides 24 VAC before ordering. Because this is an electrical assembly, installation should follow safety best practices and local codes. Using the correct packout prevents damage to the valve actuator and maintains reliable control of pool and spa plumbing.

• Verify model compatibility: Zodiac Jandy JVA 1240 or 2440 only
• Ensure a 24 VAC supply and proper wiring connections
• Follow manufacturer torque and mounting guidelines during installation
• Consider professional service for wiring and calibration tasks

Who is this for: Pool technicians, service professionals, and knowledgeable pool owners who need a cost-effective repair for Jandy JVA actuators. If the actuator housing and mechanical linkage are intact but the internal electronics or drive pack have failed, this Zodiac 4424 packout assembly gives you a practical way to restore valve control without replacing the entire actuator unit.
