Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100172002 Gas Valve
The Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100172002 Gas Valve is a critical replacement component engineered specifically for high-efficiency condensing boilers and water heating systems. As a veteran in gas-fired equipment maintenance, you know that precise manifold pressure and reliable modulation are non-negotiable for maintaining combustion analysis parameters. This OEM gas valve assembly is primarily utilized in Lochinvar Knight KBN105 models and compatible A.O. Smith gas-fired boilers, ensuring a direct-fit solution that eliminates the integration headaches of universal aftermarket valves. Operating as a natural gas valve, it manages the air-gas ratio with the tight tolerances required by modulating condensing boilers to maximize AFUE ratings. Whether you are addressing a boiler flame failure or performing a full system overhaul, this component provides the rugged durability and consistent flow regulation necessary for demanding commercial and residential hydronic applications. Verify your LP conversion requirements separately, as this 100172002 unit is configured for standard natural gas service.
Key Benefits for Contractors- Direct OEM Replacement: Seamlessly replaces legacy VAL3200 gas valves, ensuring electrical and physical compatibility with existing harnesses.
- KBN105 Compatibility: Specifically calibrated for the Lochinvar Knight KBN105 series to maintain factory-spec combustion efficiency.
- Precise Modulation: Advanced internal regulation supports the variable firing rates of modern condensing boiler systems.
- Robust Construction: Industrial-grade housing and internal diaphragms designed for high-cycle reliability in hydronic heating environments.
- Enhanced Safety: Quick-acting solenoid response provides immediate gas shut-off during safety limit trips or power loss.
Is this valve compatible with LP (Propane) systems?
The 100172002 is factory-set for natural gas. For LP applications, a specific conversion kit must be used in accordance with the manufacturer's technical manual.
What are the symptoms of a failing 100172002 gas valve?
Technicians usually identify failure through intermittent ignition (soft lockouts), unstable manifold pressure during high-fire modulation, or "No Flame" error codes on the boiler control board.
Can this unit replace the VAL3200?
Yes, the 100172002 is the current authorized replacement for the older VAL3200 part number commonly found in earlier Knight boiler production runs.
