Copeland Comfort Control (White Rodgers) 1361-102 Valve

The Copeland Comfort Control (White Rodgers) 1361-102 Valve is a professional-grade 3/4" hydronic zone valve engineered for precision flow control in closed-loop heating systems. Operating on 24 VAC at 0.2 Amps, this 2-wire, normally closed component is a staple for contractors managing residential and commercial boiler zones. The 1300 Series design features a self-aligning barrel-type valve stem that utilizes line pressure to ensure a tight seal without binding, making it highly reliable in systems with a maximum operating pressure of 50 PSI.

This 3/4" sweat connection valve includes a built-in auxiliary switch (end switch) rated for up to 2.0 Amps, allowing for seamless integration with burner circuits or circulator relays. Performance-wise, it delivers a high flow capacity of 23.5 GPM with a maximum differential pressure of 15 PSI. For the service technician, the removable motor is a significant advantage, as it can be swapped without draining the hydronic loop. The automatic recycling manual operator provides a clear visual of the valve position, while the screw terminal wiring panel simplifies field installation and diagnostic testing.

Key Benefits

• System Reliability: The corrosion-resistant stainless steel body and self-aligning stem resist mineral buildup even at a maximum media temperature of 240°F.
• Efficient Servicing: The quick-release motor design allows for rapid replacement, minimizing downtime and labor costs during maintenance calls.
• Integrated Control: The internal auxiliary switch eliminates the need for external relays when triggering a boiler or pump upon zone opening.
• Accurate Monitoring: The manual operator allows technicians to manually bypass the actuator to verify flow or check the heat loop without power.
• Broad Compatibility: A direct OEM replacement for various 1361-series valves, ensuring physical and electrical match in existing hydronic manifolds.

Common Questions

Can the 1361-102 be used for domestic potable water?
No, this valve is specifically designed for hydronic heating systems and is not rated for potable or drinking water applications.

What should I check if the valve opens but the boiler doesn't fire?
Verify the auxiliary switch wiring at terminals 2 and 3. Ensure the end switch is making continuity when the valve reaches the fully open position; if the motor cycles but the contact fails, the assembly may need replacement.

How long does the 1361-102 take to cycle?
Standard operation cycles are approximately 45 seconds to open and 45 to 60 seconds to close, ensuring quiet operation and preventing water hammer in the piping.
