Precision gas regulation is achieved with the VAL3200 gas valve assembly, engineered specifically for Lochinvar heating units. This assembly, cross-referenced as KBN151, integrates seamlessly into systems such as the KBN105 and KBN106 series to manage fuel intake with accuracy, preventing performance degradation in hydronic and pool heating applications.
This component operates by modulating the flow of gas to the burner assembly, utilizing an internal solenoid configuration to ensure rapid ignition sequences and reliable flame stability. By regulating the pressure delivery precisely, it maintains the thermal output required for efficient system cycling and protects the internal combustion chamber from fuel inconsistencies.
Key System Performance Baselines:
- Combustion Efficiency: Maintains consistent fuel-to-air ratios for cleaner burning.
- Pressure Modulation: Facilitates controlled gas delivery to prevent ignition surges.
- Safety Interfacing: Acts as a primary gatekeeper for fuel flow during system startup and shutdown cycles.
⚠️ Application Profile: Primarily installed in Lochinvar KBL and KBN series boilers, including the KBL105, KBL106, KBN105, KBN105PM, KBN106, and KBN106PM for both hydronic space heating and swimming pool temperature regulation.
