Application
The K16BT-36 is used in standing pilot ignition systems where a continuously burning pilot flame generates a millivolt signal through the thermocouple. This signal holds the gas valve open, providing a proven safety interlock. When the pilot flame is extinguished, the thermocouple cools, the millivolt output drops, and the gas valve closes — preventing unburned gas from accumulating. This thermocouple is suitable for use in gas furnaces, boilers, water heaters, unit heaters, and fireplace gas logs equipped with standing pilot controls.
