Reznor 096300 Gas Valve

The Reznor 096300 Gas Valve is a critical OEM replacement gas valve engineered for precision combustion control in industrial and commercial unit heaters. This 1/2" NPT natural gas valve is a direct substitute for legacy part numbers 96300 and 96300-1, ensuring seamless mechanical and electrical integration. Operating on a 24V AC circuit at 60 Hz with a 0.23 Amp draw, this solenoid-actuated valve manages fuel flow with a maximum pressure rating of 1/2 PSI. Designed specifically for Reznor's heating architecture, the 096300 ensures the burner manifold receives regulated pressure for consistent thermal output. For technicians performing field service, utilizing this genuine Reznor part eliminates the calibration risks associated with universal aftermarket components, maintaining the equipment's original safety listings and firing rates. This natural gas control valve is built with high-grade internals to resist diaphragm wear and ensure reliable cycling throughout the heating season.

• Standard Pipe Sizing: Features 1/2" NPT inlet and outlet ports for compatibility with standard black iron gas lines common in HVACR installations.

Common Questions about the Reznor 096300

Is the Reznor 096300 compatible with Propane (LP) systems?
No, the Reznor 096300 is configured specifically for natural gas applications. Using this valve with LP requires a manufacturer-approved conversion kit to ensure safe manifold pressure.

Can I use this to replace a 96300-1 valve?
Yes, the 096300 is the current genuine OEM replacement for both the 96300 and 96300-1 part numbers found in older Reznor technical manuals.

What is the maximum inlet pressure allowed for this valve?
The Reznor 096300 Gas Valve is rated for a maximum pressure of 1/2 PSI. Exceeding this pressure can damage the internal diaphragm and create a safety hazard.
