Brahma Gas solenoid valve E6G*S10*1/2*GMO 13742002

The Brahma E6G*S10*1/2*GMO gas solenoid valve (SKU 13742002) is a normally closed valve designed for use in domestic and industrial gas 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, a nominal diameter of 10 mm, and a 1/2" connection thread. It has a maximum inlet pressure of 500 mbar, a flow capacity of 3.9 m³/h, and a closing time of 1 second. The valve is certified according to EN161 and complies with European directives 90/396 and 93/68.

When selecting a gas solenoid valve of this type, ensure the nominal diameter, connection thread, and supply voltage match the existing system. The valve can be installed vertically or horizontally, and the arrow on the body must align with the flow direction. Use a hex key of appropriate size to avoid damaging the protective shell. Verify that the inlet pressure does not exceed the maximum rated pressure.

Common failures include the valve failing to open or close, often due to coil burnout or debris blocking the orifice. Symptoms may include no gas flow when the burner should ignite, or gas flow continuing after shutdown. Check the coil resistance and ensure the valve is clean and free of foreign objects.
