What it is

The Worcester Bosch 87161424210 is a plug-in diverter valve, also referenced as 490-440. It is a hydraulic component used in Worcester Bosch 280 RSF appliances, where it controls the changeover between the heating circuit and the domestic hot water circuit. The plug-in format seats directly into the manifold housing rather than using a separate threaded connection.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Domestic hot water runs cold or only lukewarm while the heating circuit works normally
  • Radiators warm up when only hot water is demanded at the tap
  • No hot water draw-off despite the appliance firing
  • Slow or intermittent changeover between heating and hot water modes
  • Scale, debris or stiffness around the valve seating and plug-in connection

Before you order

  • Confirm the appliance model and GC number against the compatibility list before ordering.
  • Check the previous number ZAMAJ118 against the valve currently fitted to the appliance.
  • Inspect the valve seating and seals; a replacement seal may be needed if the existing one is perished or deformed.
  • This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
