Brahma Gas valve E6G*SR8*1/2*GMO 13762000

The Brahma E6G*SR8*1/2*GMO gas valve (SKU 13762000) is a normally closed electromagnetic gas control unit designed for domestic and industrial installations. It operates on alternating current (230 V / 50-60 Hz) and is controlled by a direct current signal via a built-in bridge rectifier. The valve features a brass body, 1/2" connection thread, and a quick-opening, silent mechanism. It has adjustable flow settings, with a nozzle diameter of either 8 or 10 mm, and complies with EN161 standards, holding CE certification under directives 90/396 and 93/68. The valve is rated class A, with an ingress protection of IP54, and can be installed vertically or horizontally.

When selecting a gas valve of this type, ensure the connection thread size, supply voltage, and frequency match the existing system. Verify the nozzle diameter (8 or 10 mm) and the valve's opening/closing times to meet application requirements. The valve can be mounted in vertical or horizontal positions, and electrical connections are made via a terminal block with IP54 protection. Always confirm the valve class and certification standards (e.g., EN161) align with local regulations before installation.

Common failures in gas valves of this kind include coil burnout, leading to the valve failing to open or close, which may cause burner ignition issues or gas flow interruption. Sticking due to debris or wear can result in slow or incomplete closure, potentially causing gas leakage. Check for continuity across the coil, inspect the valve seat for debris, and verify the electrical supply and control signal. If the valve operates intermittently or makes unusual noises, it may indicate internal wear or electrical problems.
