Material: The fire pit gas control valve kit are made of high quality brass material with heavy-duty construction for durable use. Application: Suitable for Low Pressure Repair Control System for Grill, Fire Pit, Fireplace & Heater Size: Thermocouple Length: 600mm/23.62inch; Head Tip: M8; Knob Diameter 44mm; "D" Insert for Valve: 6.0-6.1mm Thermocouple plays the role of a sensor, it senses the flame, will transmit a signal to the solenoid valve in the control valve, the solenoid valve receives the signal before opening the gas, in order to successfully ignite and keep the flame does not go out. So in the installation, the control valve and thermocouple should be well connected, so the control valve will receive the signal transmitted by the thermocouple, it will pass gas and ignite. 2. The thermocouple and ignition needle in the installation of the distance should be closer, so the thermocouple can sense the flame and the solenoid valve receive the induction, pass gas and ignite. Operation Instructions
1). Fix the valve on a plate or board of your grill or fire pit by the head screw and flange.
2). Connect your inlet and outlet hose on inlet and outlet side. (faston it tightly enough in case of gas leakage)
3). Faston the thermocouple nut M*8 on the valve end tightly
4). Connect thermocouple and end thread well
5). Open gas by correct size knob and push your valve around 5-10s till the thermocouple head is heated enough.
6). Release your hand and it work properly If when you release hand, gas valve shut off again, Please check
a. If your thermocouple is always be heated on flame
b. If the thermocouple end is well connect with valve
c. If the inlet and outlet side well connect with hose you have
Possible problems occurs during your use:
1) Valve after turn can not stick during using
Reason:
a. The thermocouple head is not heated in right place, please adjust thermocouple tip position.
b. The connection between thermocouple end and valve is not connected tight enough or too tight, please adjust the screw again
c. Need to push valve first then turn the spindle and hold for few seconds, it cannot stick immediately may need 5-15Seconds
