ASCO 8210H106B Solenoid Valve

The ASCO 8210H106B Solenoid Valve is a 2-way, normally closed internal pilot-operated valve designed for high-demand reliability in HVACR and fuel gas systems. Built with a rugged forged brass body and NBR (Buna-N) seals, this 1/2" NPT valve is specifically engineered to handle liquid petroleum gases (propane) and general service fluids. It features a 120V AC coil and a NEMA 4X enclosure, ensuring protection in demanding environments where moisture and corrosion are concerns. With a 3.6 Cv flow coefficient and a gas capacity rating of 281,000 BTU/hr, it supports operative pressure differentials from 5 to 250 PSI, making it ideal for large-scale grain dryers, commercial space heaters, and incinerators.

Technical performance is anchored by the RedHat II molded epoxy coil and a 305 stainless steel core tube. This configuration allows for mounting in any position without compromising the mechanical integrity of the 2-position shutoff mechanism. For technicians, the ASCO 1/2 inch NPT solenoid provides a robust solution for safety shutoff applications requiring a high flow HVAC solenoid valve with low-temperature NBR suitability. This fuel gas valve is a standard choice for 120V AC propane solenoid valve replacements where consistent pilot-operated performance is mandatory.

Key Benefits

• Optimized Flow: 3.6 Cv rating handles high-capacity requirements up to 281,000 BTU/hr.
• Durable Construction: Forged brass body with NBR seals ensures chemical compatibility with LP gas.
• Versatile Installation: Internal pilot-operated design allows for mounting in any orientation to fit tight headers.
• Environmental Protection: NEMA 4X watertight and dust-tight enclosure protects the 120Vac coil in harsh atmospheres.
• Safety Rated: Specifically designed for 2-way normally closed gas shutoff and liquid propane applications.

Common Questions

What is the maximum operating pressure for the ASCO 8210H106B?
This valve is rated for an operating pressure differential of 5 to 250 PSI for both liquid and gaseous media.

Can this valve be used for outdoor fuel gas applications?
Yes, the NEMA 4X enclosure provides the necessary protection against hose-directed water and corrosion for outdoor installations.

Is a minimum pressure differential required for operation?
As an internal pilot-operated valve, it requires a minimum differential pressure of 5 PSI to ensure the diaphragm opens and closes reliably.
