Raypak 006508F Valve
For field technicians and mechanical contractors, the Raypak 006508F is a critical OEM replacement gas valve engineered for Raypak modulating heaters. This 1-inch NPT valve is built to handle specific demand cycles, operating on a 24V control circuit with a maximum inlet pressure rating of 0.5 PSI (14-inch WC). Designed to maintain precise thermal regulation, it supports an operational temperature range of 110°F to 170°F, ensuring stable gas flow modulation in high-demand hydronic and pool heating applications.
When swapping out an aged or failing modulating gas valve, this genuine Raypak heater part offers direct compatibility, eliminating the need for manifold modifications. Its robust construction is tailored for Natural Gas (NG) systems, providing the reliable seat-and-disc sealing required to prevent leak-back and ensure safe ignition cycles. This HVAC gas valve is a standard-stock item for maintaining the tight tolerances of high-efficiency Raypak units.
Key Benefits- Precise Modulation: Provides accurate gas flow control for Raypak heaters, maintaining exact discharge temperatures between 110-170°F.
- Standardized Specs: 1-inch NPT connections and 24V operation facilitate a direct drop-in replacement for the original 006508F gas valve.
- OEM Reliablity: A genuine factory component designed to meet the specific manifold pressure requirements of the manufacturer.
- Safe Operation: Rated for a 0.5 PSI maximum, protecting the burner system from over-pressurization during the ignition sequence.
Is the Raypak 006508F compatible with Liquid Propane (LP)?
This specific model is calibrated for Natural Gas. For LP conversions, you must verify the specific orifice and spring kit requirements recommended by the equipment manufacturer.
What are the wiring requirements for this valve?
The valve operates on a standard 24V gas valve power supply. Always verify the amperage draw against your transformer’s VA rating to ensure the control board can support the modulation load.
Can this valve be used in temperatures outside the 110-170°F range?
Operation outside the specified 110-170°F window may lead to inconsistent modulation or premature component fatigue. Stick to the design parameters of the Raypak heating system.
