The Siemens VOG15.011U1 3/4″ 2/3-way Oil Shut Off Valve with POC Switch, with 1/2″ hardware kit
Overview
The VOG15-011U1 is a high-reliability, electro-hydraulic oil safety shut-off valve used in industrial and commercial burner systems. It can function as a 2-way shutoff or as a 3-way recirculation valve, with built-in proof-of-closure (POC) switching. The actuator is designed to close rapidly upon loss of power, making it suitable for safety interlock between the burner and fuel supply.

Features & Benefits
Proof-of-Closure (POC) built-in, enabling verification that the valve is fully closed
Rapid closure (< 1 second) on loss of power ensures safety cut-off
Dual-mode (2- or 3-way) capability—with recirculation port for heavier oils
Visual position indicator and “power-on” status light
Quick-connect wiring terminals and 360° actuator orientation for flexible field wiring
Low power consumption (~20 VA) for efficient operation
Certified for safety applications in burner systems
Tolerant of a wide range of fuel viscosities and pressures
Applications
Safety fuel shutoff in burner systems using oil (No. 2 to No. 6)
Recirculation systems for heavy oils (3-way mode)
Fuel control in commercial and industrial boiler installations
Systems using proof-of-closure feedback for safety interlocking
Installation & Maintenance Tips
For 2-way operation, install the ¾″ NPT plug supplied in the recirculation port
Apply pipe sealant on threads; torque to proper spec without twisting actuator
Wire POC and power terminals carefully; label wires before disconnecting
Mount actuator so position indicator is visible
Verify full closure and POC switch operation during commissioning
If fault or leakage occurs, replace the valve assembly—internals are not serviceable
Avoid mounting upside down; watertight rating applies only in vertical orientation
Use flexible conduit to terminal box per installation documentation
