|
Definition
|
|
Term
This device will initially only permit a small amount of gas to flow to the burner. This helps prevent the
volume of gas in the oven building up to a dangerous level if the user is a little slow in getting it lit.
Once the flame is established on the burner, the phial is heated and the LIQUID inside EXPANDS. This in
turn expands a bellows (situated in the valve body), thus pushing open the gas valve to allow gas to
flow at the correct rate (High Flame) |
