Conbraco 50-GB8-01 Valve
The Conbraco 50-GB8-01 is a professional-grade 2-inch gas shutoff ball valve engineered for high-capacity main burner applications. Constructed with an ASTM B584 bronze body and a chrome-plated brass ball, this 2-piece valve ensures superior corrosion resistance and a bubble-tight seal in demanding commercial environments. It features a 1/8" NPT pilot tapping, allowing technicians to easily install pressure gauges or pilot lines without additional manifolding. Designed for efficiency, the full port design minimizes pressure drop, supporting an impressive flow capacity of up to 14,741,000 BTU/hr. This quarter-turn gas valve is equipped with a durable tee handle for tight-space operation and is rated for 1/2 PSI systems. It is fully compliant with ANSI Z21.15 and CGA 9.1 standards, making it the industry standard for natural gas, LP gas, and air mixtures. Utilizing PTFE seats and reinforced RPTFE seals, the 50-GB8-01 provides reliable performance and high thermal stability for critical fuel gas piping systems.
Key Benefits
- High BTU Capacity: Engineered to handle up to 14,741,000 BTU/hr, making it suitable for large-scale commercial boilers and industrial burners.
- Integrated 1/8" Pilot Tap: Simplifies system monitoring and pressure testing by providing a dedicated tapping point directly on the valve body.
- Full Port Performance: The unrestricted flow path ensures maximum gas volume delivery with minimal turbulence or pressure loss.
- Rugged Bronze Construction: Built with ASTM B584 bronze for long-term durability and resistance to dezincification in gas service.
- Technical Compliance: Meets MSS SP-10, ANSI Z21.15, and CGA 9.1 requirements for manually operated gas valves.
Common Questions
Can I use this valve for outdoor gas piping?The Conbraco 50-GB series is primarily designed and certified for indoor gas appliance applications. Always check local mechanical codes for specific outdoor installation requirements regarding CSA 3.16 or BRS125G ratings.
What is the purpose of the 1/8" NPT tapping?The integrated tap allows for the direct connection of a pilot light line or a pressure gauge to monitor the gas supply. It includes a 1/8" plug with a tapered seat to maintain a leak-proof seal when not in use.
Is this valve directional for gas flow?This 2-piece ball valve is bi-directional; however, it is professional practice to install the valve so the handle operation is intuitive for the technician during emergency shutoff.
