Kromschroder Gas solenoid valve VGP15R02W6 85294101

The Kromschroder VGP15R02W6 (SKU 85294101) is a gas solenoid valve from the Kromschroder brand, categorized under gas valves. It is designed to shut off and meter the gas supply to a burner, opening on command from the burner control only when the gas pressure switch permits. In premix boilers, a pneumatic gas/air link ties the valve to the fan. The coil is replaceable separately from the valve body.

Parts of this type are selected by brand and series, connection size (typically Rp 1/2" to 2" or flanged), coil voltage (e.g., 230 V or 24 V AC/DC), and function (single/double solenoid, slow opening, servo-regulated, multiblock with filter and regulator). When replacing, check the existing valve's markings for connection thread, coil voltage, and flow capacity, as these can vary between versions of the same series. Ensure the replacement matches the burner control and gas train configuration, and consult the manufacturer's technical documentation for the specific model code before installation.

Common failures include coil burnout, leaking seat, drifting outlet pressure, and seized servo regulator. Symptoms may include the burner failing to ignite, gas flow continuing when it should stop, or unstable flame. Check the coil for continuity, inspect the valve seat for debris or wear, and verify outlet pressure against specifications.
