Robertshaw 1720-005 Valve
The Robertshaw 1720-005 Magnet Valve Assembly is a critical replacement component engineered for precise gas flow control in commercial water heater systems and pilot safety applications. Featuring a 1/4" NPT connection, this assembly provides a secure, leak-resistant interface with standard gas manifolds. The integrated internal magnet assembly is designed to interface seamlessly with thermocouples, ensuring the secondary pilot safety circuit maintains a reliable hold-in current to withstand high-demand cycles. Built with high-grade internal components, the 1720-005 handles low-pressure gas regulation while resisting the corrosive effects of natural and LP gas environments. This pilot safety valve is essential for technicians performing repairs on aging commercial units where the original magnet has failed due to heat fatigue or carbon buildup. By reinstating the physical seal within the gas line, this assembly ensures consistent performance and mitigates the risk of pilot dropouts, making it a staple for any service truck specializing in gas-fired burner assemblies and water heating systems.
Key Benefits for Technicians:- Standard 1/4" NPT Ports: Ensures compatibility with high-volume gas lines for simplified field replacement.
- Enhanced Magnet Sensitivity: Optimized for low-millivolt output, providing a reliable safety seal during fluctuations in thermocouple temperature.
- Durable internal construction: Engineered to withstand the thermal stresses common in commercial burner housings.
- Drop-in Compatibility: Sized specifically for standard Robertshaw valve bodies to reduce labor time during safety circuit overhauls.
How do I confirm if the magnet assembly is failing? If the pilot will not stay lit after the thermocouple has reached operating temperature and the thermocouple tests within the correct millivolt range, the magnet valve assembly is likely the point of failure.
Is this compatible with LP gas applications? Yes, this Robertshaw magnet valve is rated for use in both natural gas and liquid propane systems, provided the proper pressure regulation is maintained.
