The ASCO 8040H7-208V is a heavy-duty, 2-way normally closed solenoid valve specifically engineered for low-pressure fuel gas service. Featuring a 1/4" NPT connection and a lightweight aluminum body with NBR seals, this valve is designed to handle high flow rates with a 1.1 Cv capacity. Operating at 208V AC, it is a reliable solution for automatic shutoff in industrial burners and gas-fired equipment. The NEMA 4X enclosure provides superior protection against corrosion and environmental ingress, making it suitable for demanding jobsites. Designed for a pressure range of 0-15 PSI, this ASCO gas valve ensures tight shut-off and consistent performance. When replacing HVAC fuel gas valves, technicians rely on the 8040 series for its fast-acting response and straightforward integration into existing control logic. Ensure your system's electrical parameters match the 208V coil specifications to maintain optimal holding current and prevent coil burnout during continuous duty cycles.

Key Benefits for the Contractor:
  • High-Flow Capacity: A 1.1 Cv rating ensures minimal pressure drop across the 1/4" NPT ports for consistent fuel delivery.
  • Industrial Endurance: The aluminum body and NBR (Buna-N) seals provide excellent chemical compatibility with fuel gases.
  • Weatherproof Protection: The NEMA 4X solenoid housing allows for installation in wash-down or corrosive environments.
  • Zero Minimum Pressure: Operates reliably from 0 to 15 PSI, making it ideal for low-pressure gas manifolds.
Common Questions:

What is the maximum inlet pressure for the ASCO 8040H7?
This specific model is rated for fuel gas applications with a maximum operating pressure differential of 15 PSI.

Is the 208V coil compatible with 240V systems?
No, for optimal performance and to avoid overheating the solenoid coil, it should be used with a dedicated 208V AC power supply as specified.

Can this valve be mounted in any orientation?
While ASCO valves are versatile, it is standard practice to install gas shutoff valves with the solenoid upright to prevent debris accumulation in the core tube.
