ASCO K3A562V Valve
The ASCO K3A562V Valve is a high-performance 1" NPT solenoid gas valve designed specifically for commercial and industrial combustion systems. This normally closed gas shut-off valve provides reliable control for fuel gas service, ensuring a positive seal in pilot or main gas lines for burners, boilers, and furnaces. Built with a die-cast aluminum body and a 305 stainless steel core tube, this 120V gas solenoid is engineered for durability and corrosion resistance in demanding HVACR environments. The unit features a high flow capacity with a Cv of 14.6 and supports a maximum operating pressure of 1.5 psi (1/2# MAX). For streamlined maintenance and safety verification, it includes 1/8" NPT upstream and downstream test ports. This 2-way direct-acting valve allows for rapid response times of less than one second, making it an essential component for gas pressure regulation and safety shut-off protocols.
Key Benefits- Robust Construction: Featuring a die-cast aluminum body and stainless steel internal components for long-term reliability.
- Enhanced Safety: The normally closed (N/C) operation ensures the valve defaults to a closed position during power loss, preventing gas leaks.
- Integrated Testing: Upstream and downstream 1/8" NPT taps allow technicians to perform routine pressure checks and seat leakage tests easily.
- High Flow Performance: A 1-3/8" orifice provides an impressive 14.6 Cv flow factor for efficient combustion system control.
- Versatile Application: UL listed and FM approved for use with natural gas, propane, and mixed fuel gases.
How do I know if my ASCO K3A562V valve is failing?
Common signs of failure include sluggish opening/closing times (exceeding 1 second), audible humming from the 120V solenoid coil, or gas leakage through the valve seat. Regular inspection of the NBR seals is recommended to ensure a gas-tight shut-off.
Can this valve be mounted in any orientation?
While many ASCO valves offer flexible mounting, it is best practice to install the K3A562V with the solenoid vertical and upright to prevent debris from settling in the core tube, ensuring optimal gas flow control.
What is the maximum fluid temperature for this model?
The ASCO K3A562V is rated for a maximum fluid temperature of 140°F and an ambient temperature range of -40°F to 160°F, making it suitable for standard industrial burner environments.
