Southbend 1178202 Range Top Burner Valve 1/8" MPT X 3/8-27
Description
Dimensions:
- Weight: 0.03 lbs
Gas Flow Control:
Adjusts the internal gas-flow passage in response to the selected control position, regulating the amount of gas delivered to the connected burner. As the control setting changes, the valve modulates gas flow to support different burner heat levels. Consistent valve movement helps provide predictable gas delivery and allows the burner to respond appropriately to operator adjustments.
Burner Operation:
Provides dedicated gas-flow control for an individual burner circuit, allowing its heat level to be adjusted independently from other burners on the range. This allows multiple burners to operate at different settings simultaneously, supporting cooking tasks that require varying heat levels.
Replacement Guidelines:
Replace the Range Valve if it is damaged, cracked, deformed, corroded, leaking, or no longer provides proper gas-flow control. The part number 1178202 and connection configuration 1/8" MPT x 3/8-27" should be verified before replacement to ensure the correct range valve is selected. Replace the valve if deterioration affects gas flow, connection integrity, sealing, or normal range operation.
Common Failure Symptoms:
- Burner heat does not respond consistently to control adjustments.
- Gas flow is not regulated as intended.
- Valve control becomes difficult to operate.
- Valve body shows visible damage.
- Threaded connections show signs of wear or damage.
Equipment Compatibility:
Intended for commercial ranges requiring manufacturer part number 1178202 with the specified connection configuration. Verify the equipment model and required part number before ordering to help ensure the correct valve is selected.
