Robertshaw 700-409 Valve
The Robertshaw 700-409 is a versatile 24V combination gas valve engineered for intermittent pilot ignition (IPI) and thermopile systems in residential and commercial heating applications. This 1/2-inch NPT gas valve features a compact 3-13/16" swing radius, making it an ideal Robertshaw 700-402 replacement in tight furnace or boiler cabinets. Designed for natural gas (NG), it includes a pressure regulator factory-set at 3.5" W.C. with a capacity of 100,000 BTU. The unit supports multipoise mounting, allowing installation in any position except upside down. For contractors performing a 700 series gas valve conversion, this valve provides a 1/4" tubing pilot outlet and low-voltage solenoid operation to ensure reliable main burner ignition. Ensure proper millivolt system troubleshooting is performed to verify pilot safety circuit integrity before finalizing the install. Its rugged construction handles high-demand cycling in diverse HVAC service and repair environments.
Key Technical Benefits
- Universal Replacement: Specifically designed to replace Robertshaw 700-409 and 700-402 models in various 24V gas furnace configurations.
- Flexible Installation: Features multipoise mounting capability, providing 360-degree orientation options for easier piping in existing setups.
- Regulated Performance: Includes a factory-preset natural gas pressure regulator to maintain consistent manifold pressure.
- High Capacity: Rated for up to 100,000 BTU, supporting a wide range of standard residential heating equipment.
- Compact Swing Radius: The 3-13/16" profile allows for installation in restrictive compartments where larger valves fail to fit.
Common Installation Questions
Can the 700-409 be used with Liquid Propane (LP)?
This model is factory-configured for natural gas. For LP applications, a conversion kit must be used to adjust the regulator settings and orifice sizing for safe operation.
Is this valve compatible with standing pilot systems?
The 700-409 is primarily utilized in 24V intermittent pilot and thermopile applications. Review your specific wiring schematic to ensure compatibility with your ignition module.
What is the purpose of the multipoise feature?
Multipoise means the valve can be mounted in any position—horizontal, vertical, or at an angle—except with the dial pointing downward, simplifying retrofits in non-standard equipment layouts.
