G196 Series BASOTROL® Redundant Combination Gas Valve

with Manual Shutoff Valve

The G196 Series valves use the reliable valve body

and magnetic operators from the G96 gas valve along

with a manual A valve. The manual A valve, tested to

commercial cooking standards, carries the

approval for commercial cooking applications. This

combination demonstrates the reliability and long

operating life offered by the G196.

The magnetic operators are of bipolar design, closing

the valves quickly when the power supply is

interrupted.

Typical applications of the G196 valves include

electronic ignition systems on residential furnaces,

boilers, unit heaters, rooftop equipment, agricultural

heaters, commercial cooking equipment, and other

types of light commercial and residential heating units.
