Kromschroder Gas solenoid valve VMV1-/15R05P 88013292

The Kromschroder VMV1-/15R05P (SKU 88013292) is a high-precision throttle valve from the VMV Valvario series, designed for manual fine adjustment of gas or air flow upstream of gas burners. It features a linear flow characteristic, an RP internal thread (DN 15), and a self-locking design to prevent accidental adjustment. The valve is suitable for natural gas, LPG, biogas, and air, with a maximum working pressure of 500 mbar. Its aluminum body ensures durability, and it is compatible with other Valvario components such as VAS, VAD, VAG, and VMF. This original Honeywell product is made in Germany and includes a replacement coil mounted on the valve body.

Parts of this type are selected by matching the electrical connection type (wiring box, flying leads, or plug), voltage, and physical mounting dimensions (bore diameter, height, and fixing hole pattern) to the valve body. The coil is mounted on the valve body and can be replaced without removing the body from the gas line, provided the mechanical and electrical interfaces correspond. Before ordering, verify that the valve body seals correctly and that the plunger moves freely.

When coils of this kind fail, the valve may not open or close properly, leading to burner ignition failure or unstable flame. A burned coil often indicates a sticking valve or prolonged energisation under fault conditions. Check the coil for continuity and inspect the valve plunger for free movement, as a seized plunger can cause the coil to overheat and fail.
