Brahma Gas valve E6G*SR8*1/2*GFD 13742020

The Brahma E6G*SR8*1/2*GFD gas valve (SKU 13742020) is a normally closed solenoid valve designed for use in domestic and industrial gas installations. It operates on alternating current with a supply voltage of 230 V and a frequency of 50–60 Hz, consuming 20 W. The valve has a maximum inlet pressure of 1000 mbar and a flow capacity of 2 m³/h. It features a closing time of 1 second and is classified as class A. The net weight is 0.85 kg, and it can be installed in both vertical and horizontal positions.

When selecting a replacement gas valve of this type, ensure that the supply voltage, frequency, and power consumption match the system's specifications. The valve's inlet pressure rating and flow capacity must be compatible with the gas supply and burner requirements. Check the connection type and size (e.g., 1/2 inch) to fit the existing piping. Installation position (vertical or horizontal) should be considered based on the available space and orientation of the gas line.

Common failures of gas valves of this kind include sticking or delayed closure, which can cause the burner to continue operating after the control signal stops. Symptoms may include inconsistent flame, failure to ignite, or gas odor. Check for electrical continuity across the coil, proper voltage supply, and debris or corrosion on the valve seat that could prevent sealing.
