A non-powered mechanical thermocouple probe is located proximate the pilot burner and has a bi-metal element that produces an electrical signal when heated by flame from the pilot burner. A pilot shutoff valve has an inlet connected to receive gaseous fuel from a gaseous fuel manifold, a pilot output connected to deliver gas to the pilot burner, a main burner output connected to deliver gas to both the first gas burner and the second gas burner, and a thermocouple probe input connected to receive the electrical signal produced by the bi-metal element of the mechanical thermocouple probe. The pilot shutoff valve is biased to a default closed position in which gas is prevented from flowing both from the inlet to the pilot output and from the inlet to the main burner output. The pilot shutoff valve is held in an open condition when the electrical signal is received from the bi-metal element, the open condition permitting gas to flow both from the inlet to the pilot output and from the inlet to the main burner output. The pilot shutoff valve also has an associated pilot start button biased into a non-start position. When the pilot start button is manually moved to a start position the pilot shutoff valve permits gas to flow from the inlet to the pilot output and prevents gas from flowing from the inlet to the main burner output. | 09-24-2009 |
