Robertshaw 1710-126 Valve Body
The Robertshaw 1710-126 Valve Body is a critical component for maintaining the integrity of TS series gas valves in residential and commercial heating systems. This 1/2" NPT valve body serves as the reliable gas carrier for TS11 automatic safety valve applications, offering a robust fluid control solution for both Natural Gas and Liquid Propane (LP). Built with a durable brass body, it is engineered to handle substantial capacities, rated at 210,000 BTU/HR for natural gas and up to 340,000 BTU/HR for LP gas at a 1" pressure drop. For field technicians performing a gas valve replacement, it is essential to note the integrated flow direction arrows to ensure proper orientation during installation. Professional best practices dictate that when installing a new 1710 replacement body, a new 1720 safety magnet must be utilized to ensure system-wide HVAC safety and optimal pressure regulation within water heaters, furnaces, and boilers.

- High-Capacity Performance: Supports up to 340,000 BTU/HR, making it suitable for high-demand commercial equipment.
- Standardized Fittings: Features universal 1/2" NPT inlet and outlet ports for straightforward integration into existing gas lines.
- Industrial Durability: Forged from high-grade brass to resist corrosion and withstand the rigors of mechanical stress in heat-intensive environments.
- Precision Safety: Designed specifically for use with Robertshaw TS11 series magnet heads to ensure reliable fuel shut-off.
Is the 1710-126 a complete safety valve assembly?
No, this is the valve body only. To form a complete functional safety valve, it must be paired with a compatible 1720 series magnet head.
Can this valve body be used in commercial cooking applications?
Yes, the Robertshaw 1710-126 is widely used in commercial kitchens and high-capacity boilers where a #11 TS body is required.
Does it matter which direction the gas flows through the 1710-126?
Absolutely. The body is marked with flow arrows; installing the valve against the intended flow direction will prevent the safety magnet from seating correctly and may cause mechanical failure.
