This natural gas safety valve is used in commercial cooking equipment to control gas flow to pilot and burner systems during operation. The valve features a 1/2" FPT inlet with 3/4" and 1/2" outlet connections, dual 1/2" side outlets with plugs, and a 1/4" CCT pilot outlet for pilot flame connection. It uses a 120 VAC actuator and thermocouple-based safety operation to help manage gas supply during equipment use. Gas safety valves are commonly installed in restaurants, institutional kitchens, and foodservice cooking equipment where controlled burner ignition and pilot operation are required. The assembly works with the thermocouple and pilot system to allow gas flow only during proper operation. A worn or faulty valve may lead to pilot outage problems, burner interruption, or uneven heating operation, and replacing the valve can help restore normal gas control and burner function in compatible equipment.
