Description
ASCO 8214G74 Fuel Gas Vent Solenoid Valve Overview
The ASCO 8214G74 is a heavy-duty 2-way, normally open solenoid valve engineered specifically for fuel gas vent applications in commercial and industrial HVAC and combustion systems. With a robust aluminum body, NBR seals, and a NEMA 4X-rated enclosure, this valve delivers reliable, code-compliant performance in demanding environments where moisture, dust, and corrosion resistance are essential.
Key Specifications
- Valve Type: 2-Way, Normally Open (N/O)
- Port Size: 1-1/2″ NPT
- Voltage: 120VAC
- Flow Coefficient (Cv): 35
- BTU Capacity: 1,615,250 BTU/hr
- Operating Pressure Range: 0–5 PSI
- Media: Fuel Gas (Vent Service)
- Body Material: Aluminum
- Seal Material: NBR (Buna-N)
- Enclosure Rating: NEMA 4X
Features & Benefits
- Normally Open Design: Valve remains open when de-energized, allowing gas flow during normal operation and closing upon energization for positive shutoff.
- High Flow Capacity: A Cv of 35 supports high-volume fuel gas vent lines rated up to 1,615,250 BTU/hr, making it suitable for large commercial burners and boiler systems.
- NEMA 4X Enclosure: Provides protection against corrosion, windblown dust, rain, splashing water, and hose-directed water — ideal for indoor and outdoor installations.
- Aluminum Body: Lightweight yet durable construction reduces installation weight while resisting corrosion in gas service environments.
- NBR Seals: Nitrile rubber (Buna-N) seals offer excellent compatibility with natural gas, LP gas, and other fuel gas media.
- 1-1/2″ NPT Connection: Standard pipe thread connection simplifies installation into existing gas vent piping systems.
- Low Pressure Operation: Rated for 0–5 PSI service, perfectly matched to low-pressure fuel gas vent line requirements.
Typical Applications
- Commercial and industrial fuel gas vent lines
- Boiler and burner vent valve service
- Gas train vent valve assemblies
- Combustion safety shutoff systems
- HVAC equipment with gas vent valve requirements
