Reznor 196854 Orifice

Reznor 196854 Orifice

Precision-engineered for high-performance combustion, the Reznor 196854 Orifice is a high-grade OEM replacement part designed for specific gas-fired unit heaters. Featuring a 3.0mm diameter and a #32 drill size, this brass component ensures accurate fuel metering and a stable flame profile across compatible burner assemblies. As a veteran-grade Reznor burner part, it is primarily utilized in 100,000 BTU (Size 100) configurations for Model UDAP, UDAS, UDBP, and UDBS units, as well as UBX and UDX series. Utilizing a genuine Reznor brass orifice is critical for maintaining manifold pressure and achieving optimal thermal efficiency without the risk of improper gas conversion or carbon monoxide issues. This orifice is factory-drilled to exact tolerances, preventing the turbulence often associated with field-drilled alternatives. For contractors performing HVAC orifice replacement, verify the serial number code on the rating plate to ensure a match with the 3.0mm specification required for your specific gas valve and altitude requirements.

Key Benefits
  • Engineered for Precision: Factory-drilled to a 3.0mm (#32) specification to maintain precise gas flow and prevent burner soot.
  • Broad Unit Compatibility: Directly compatible with Reznor Model UDAP, UDAS, UBX, and UDX Series 100 units.
  • Durable Brass Construction: High-quality brass resists corrosion and thermal fatigue, ensuring longevity in high-heat environments.
  • Optimized Combustion: Safeguards system efficiency by providing the correct fuel-to-air ratio for clean, complete combustion.
Common Questions

Is the Reznor 196854 orifice used for Natural Gas or Propane?
This 3.0mm orifice is typically used in Natural Gas to Propane (LP) conversion kits for Size 100 heaters, or as a standard component in specific Natural Gas configurations depending on the heater model and altitude de-rating. Always consult the unit rating plate.

Can I drill out a smaller orifice to match this 3.0mm spec?
No. Field-drilling orifices is a safety hazard and an NFPA code violation. Use only factory-supplied genuine Reznor replacement parts to ensure the internal bore remains smooth and provides a laminar gas flow.

Which Reznor models use the #32 drill size orifice?
The 196854 is commonly found in the UDAP 100, UDAS 100, and the newer UBX/UDX series. It is specific to the 100,000 BTU input rating; using it in a 75,000 or 125,000 BTU unit will cause improper manifold pressure.
