BASO H17CA-2 Gas Valve

The BASO H17CA-2 is a robust automatic shut-off pilot gas valve designed for reliability in standing pilot applications. Engineered for both natural gas and liquid propane (LP) systems, this valve handles operating pressures up to 0.5 PSI. It features 3/8" NPT inlet and outlet connections, providing a direct fit for standard gas lines. The integrated 1/8"-27 NPT pilot tap located over the outlet ensures a streamlined installation for thermocouples and pilot lines. This model maintains consistent performance within the standard temperature range, making it a staple for commercial and residential heating maintenance. Technicians should note that the H17CA-2 is identical to the H17CA-2C, ensuring full cross-compatibility for field replacements. Its mechanically simple, fail-safe design is specifically built to interrupt gas flow to the main burner and pilot if the flame signal is lost, prioritizing system safety and preventing unburned gas accumulation.

• Universal Compatibility: Approved for use with Natural Gas and Propane setups, reducing inventory requirements for service calls.
• Precise Pilot Integration: Includes a factory-machined 1/8"-27 NPT pilot tap for secure and leak-free pilot line connections.
• Compact Footprint: The 3/8" NPT size allows for installation in tight mechanical cabinets where space is limited.
• Field Reliable Logic: The automatic shut-off mechanism provides high-cycle durability without the complexity of electronic controls.

Is the H17CA-2 interchangeable with the H17CA-2C?
Yes, the H17CA-2 and H17CA-2C are identical units with the same specifications and mechanical dimensions.

Can this valve be used in high-pressure gas systems?
No, this valve is rated for low-pressure applications only, with a maximum capacity of 0.5 PSI.

What is the purpose of the 1/8"-27 NPT tap?
This is the dedicated pilot tap connection used to supply gas to the pilot burner assembly and is positioned over the outlet for optimal flow control.
