Bard part number 5651-142BX is an OEM 1/2 in by 1/2 in natural gas SmartValve assembly used on Bard gas heating sections in select wall mounted HVAC units to regulate and prove safe gas flow during ignition. This 24V valve is designed to work with the unit controls for proper light off and stable burner operation, and it is commonly specified for natural gas applications at 3.5 in. W.C. manifold pressure. If your furnace is experiencing intermittent ignition, no heat, or gas valve fault issues, replacing with the correct Bard 5651-142BX helps restore factory control timing and safe operation, but always confirm the exact match by model and serial number before ordering.
Bard uses suffixes like "BX" to manage parts internally. These do not change the physical form or function of the part.
A part number ending in "BX" simply means it is packaged in a box for shipping, rather than for internal assembly use.
Example: 8406-142BX is physically identical to 8406-142.
