Valor Pilot Burners (Page 2)

The pilot burner is a flame within the unit that is used to ignite the gas that is coming in to the main burner. When the appliance is turned on the gas valve releases gas in to the burner which is then ignited by the pilot flame. The pilot flame operates in conjunction with the printed circuit board and the rest of the pilot assembly to ensure that all of the injected gas is ignited safely and efficiently.
