Description
The BASO Gas Products K16BT-18H Heavy Duty Husky Thermocouple generates millivolt signals that control gas valve safety circuits in furnaces, boilers, and HVAC systems requiring flame sensing. This 18-inch thermostat positions its sensing tip within pilot flame zones, producing thermal electromotive force that energizes electromagnetic gas valve operators. When pilot flames extinguish, voltage drops instantly, triggering an automatic gas shutoff that prevent unburned fuel accumulation. Heavy-duty construction featuring reinforced lead wire insulation and corrosion-resistant connector parts resists high-temperature conditions, mechanical vibration, and repeated thermal cycling, and reliable flame detection prevents gas release, ensures code-compliant operation, and provides ongoing heat distributions.
