H17 Series BASO® Automatic Shutoff Pilot Gas Valve

The H17 Series automatic pilot valves provide safe

lighting and complete shutoff in the event that the

flame heating the thermocouple is extinguished. They

are designed for standing pilot applications and can be

used with natural gas and Liquefied Petroleum (LP)

gas. Depressing the reset button allows gas to flow to

both the pilot and main burner. Applications include

room heaters, infrared heaters, stand-alone portable

heaters, catalytic heaters, refrigerators, and similar

applications.

H17 models are also available with a higher ambient

temperature, up to a maximum of 300

F (149

C), for

use on commercial ovens, broilers, and other

applications.
