Description
The BASO Gas Products K16FA-36 is a precision-engineered thermocouple designed for reliable performance in standing pilot ignition systems. With a 36-inch lead length and a 3.546-inch junction lead, this thermocouple provides the flexibility needed for a wide range of gas appliance installations.
Key Features
- Designed for use in standing pilot ignition systems
- 36-inch overall lead length for versatile installation reach
- 3.546-inch junction lead for precise positioning at the pilot flame
- 25–35 mV open circuit output range for accurate pilot flame sensing
- Generates a millivolt signal to hold the gas valve open when a pilot flame is present
- Provides a critical safety shutoff — gas valve closes if the pilot flame is extinguished
Application
The K16FA-36 thermocouple is a direct-replacement component suited for gas furnaces, boilers, water heaters, and other appliances equipped with standing pilot ignition. It converts heat from the pilot flame into a small electrical voltage (millivolt signal) that keeps the main gas valve energized. If the pilot flame goes out, the voltage drops and the gas valve closes automatically, preventing unburned gas from accumulating.
