Brahma Solenoid coil BE6*GFD 18811172

The Brahma Solenoid coil BE6*GFD 18811172 is a valve coil designed for precise control of gas burner valves. It ensures opening and closing of valves when voltage is applied, with high heat resistance and durable insulation. This coil is intended for use on gas valves that shut off and meter the gas supply to burners. It features a manual reset button.

Parts of this type are selected primarily by the valve manufacturer and series, the operating voltage (commonly 230 V or 24 V AC/DC), and the mechanical interface—thread size, stem length, and mounting pattern. When replacing a coil, check that the new unit matches the voltage stamped on the original coil or called for by the burner control. Also verify the coil's power consumption (VA rating), as an undersized control transformer may not reliably energise a coil with higher draw. Ensure the new coil is seated fully on the valve stem and that the manual reset button (if present) is free to move. Coils of this class are often interchangeable across several valve bodies within the same brand and series, but the exact catalogue number should be confirmed against the valve's identification plate.

Typical failure modes include shorted turns (causing the control to see an open circuit or a fuse to blow) and intermittent operation from partial burnout. A coil that is warm but not pulling in strongly suggests incorrect voltage or a degraded winding.
