Gas cocks are used to
manually shut off the gas
supply on both sides of the
main gas shut-off valve train.
Solenoid valves are used to
automatically shut off the gas
supply on a bypass gas system
or on small capacity burners.
Fuel orifice meters are used to
measure gas flow.
Adjustable limiting orifices are
used for fine adjustment of gas
flow.

Info Guide
A ratio regulator is used to control
the air/gas ratio. The ratio
regulator is a sealed unit that
adjusts the gas flow in ratio with
the air flow. To do this, it measures
the air pressure with a pressure
sensing line, the impulse line. This
impulse line is connected between
the top of the ratio regulator and
the burner body.
A pressure regulator reduces
gas pressure to a stable, usable
pressure.
