Mystery Valve
I was wondering if anyone has ever seen this valve? It is on a Amtech/Reliable that was installed in the early 90s. It only has 3 valve coils. I could not find a manufacture name or model anywhere on it.

i think it is a brand, not sure, i found a manual for a THE valve that has 4 valve coils, but not the one that has 3 I remember we would try to replace that valve as we could. it was not very reliable. looks like yours is still kicking though.

Its still running, I just had never seen one before and my company is looking at taking it on service. It looks like it wouldn't be to hard to convert it to a Maxton.

The piping is the easy part the signals to the valve are where things can get interesting depends on the controller.
