Baso K16BT-24 Penn 24 Inch Thermocouple

The BASO Gas Products K16BT-24 Penn Thermocouple is a safety device critical for gas-fired HVAC equipment. It converts heat into a small voltage (25-35 millivolts). This voltage signal acts as a safety switch for the gas control valve. When the burner flame heats the thermocouple, the voltage signal tells the valve the flame is lit. If the thermocouple doesn't sense sufficient heat and the voltage drops, the gas control valve shuts off the gas supply, preventing leaks and potential hazards. Made of durable materials, the K16BT-24 thermocouple is 24 inches long and weighs a mere 0.17 pounds. It has a resistance of 0.184 Ohms at room temperature.
