BASO H17AB-2 Gas Valve
The BASO H17AB-2 Gas Valve is a specialized automatic shut-off pilot gas valve engineered for critical safety in standing pilot applications. Designed to handle both Natural Gas and Liquid Propane (LP), this 1/8" NPT valve is rated for low-pressure systems up to 0.5 PSI. A key technical feature is the integrated 1/8"-27 NPT pilot tap located over the outlet, facilitating precise pilot gas delivery. This model is built for high-performance environments, featuring a high temperature range construction that ensures reliable thermo-electric safety shut-off when the pilot flame is extinguished. For technicians servicing commercial or residential heaters, the BASO H17 series offers a compact footprint for tight manifold configurations. This gas safety valve is a standard component for maintaining HVAC system compliance and ensuring the integrity of the pilot light assembly across various heating platforms.
Key Benefits for Technicians- Dual Fuel Compatibility: Fully rated for Natural Gas and LP applications without requiring separate conversion kits for the valve body.
- High Temperature Resilience: Engineered to maintain seal integrity in elevated ambient temperatures common in compact heat exchangers.
- Precise Safety Control: Utilizing a thermocouple-driven solenoid, the unit provides reliable 100% shut-off of gas flow if the standing pilot fails.
- Simplified Installation: The 1/8" NPT inlet/outlet and dedicated pilot tap over the outlet allow for streamlined plumbing in restricted spaces.
