Potential Applications
This valve assembly may be suitable for compatible:
-
Gas grills and barbecues
-
Patio and space heaters
-
Gas fire pits
-
Outdoor fireplaces
-
Other low-pressure gas appliances
Compatibility must be confirmed from the connection threads, gas pressure, heat output, shaft size and appliance specifications.
Basic Operating Principle
After ignition, the control knob is normally pressed and held for approximately 5–10 seconds. This allows the flame to heat the thermocouple and activate the flame-safety mechanism.
Once the thermocouple has reached the required temperature, the knob can be released. If the flame goes out or the thermocouple cools, the valve is designed to shut off the gas supply.
If the Valve Does Not Stay Open
Check that:
-
The thermocouple tip is positioned correctly in the flame
-
The flame remains in direct contact with the thermocouple
-
The M8 × 1 thermocouple connection is correctly tightened
-
The inlet and outlet fittings are secure
-
The valve and thermocouple threads are compatible
-
The correct gas pressure and appliance configuration are being used
