Description
The Static Caravan Widney Standard Gas Valve (Old Style) is a replacement component designed for older models of Widney gas heaters typically found in static caravans. This valve is a crucial part of the gas control system, regulating the flow of gas to the burner to ensure safe and efficient operation.
Key Features:
- Compatibility:
- Specifically designed for older Widney gas heater models.
- Ideal for static caravan setups where the original valve design is still in use.
- Functionality:
- Regulates gas flow to maintain proper combustion.
- Provides a safety shut-off mechanism in case of flame failure (when paired with a thermocouple).
- Durability:
- Manufactured with robust materials to withstand the demands of daily use.
- Resistant to wear and tear, making it suitable for long-term operation.
- Design:
- Follows the traditional “old-style” design for easy replacement in legacy systems.
Installation and Maintenance:
- Installation:
- Requires connection to the gas supply and integration with the heater’s existing control system.
- It is highly recommended to have the valve installed by a qualified gas engineer to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
- Maintenance:
- Regularly inspect for signs of wear, corrosion, or gas leakage.
- Replace promptly if there are any signs of malfunction, such as inconsistent gas flow or difficulty lighting the appliance.
Troubleshooting Signs of a Faulty Gas Valve:
- The heater does not light or struggles to stay lit.
- Gas flow is uneven or insufficient for proper combustion.
- Signs of a gas leak around the valve area.
For replacement or further assistance, ensure you reference the exact specifications of your Widney gas heater model to find the correct old-style valve.
