10. Heater (Gas) Assembly Characteristics - FFLG4033QW
10.1 Burner
10.1.1 General Characteristics
A gas burner is used to
generate a flame to heat up
products using a gaseous
fuel. The heat is generated by
burning the gas with the help
of an igniter, and the air is
pulled through the chamber
that absorbs the heat and is used to dry the wet clothes.
10.2 Gas Valve
10.2.1 General Characteristics
Gas valve is the device that
controls and restricts the flow of
gas into the burner. This is
controlled by energizing the
plunger inside the coils
(Secondary and Booster). When
the electrical current is passed
into the coil, the magnetic field is created. This field controls
the opened or closed positions of the valve.
10.3 Igniter
10.3.1 General Characteristics
Igniter is used to ignite or burn the gas. An igniter is placed in
the path of the flow of gas, and
when the gas valve is open, the
gas passes through the igniter.
The igniter is lighted by using a
battery powered spark
generator that burns the gas
and produces heat. This heat is
used to dry the clothes inside the dryer.
10.4 Radiant / Flame Sensor
10.4.1 General Characteristics
Flame sensor is a device that detects the
presence of a flame due to
combustion. It detects the
flame by detecting
electromagnetic
radiation, ionization, or
heat. When the dryer
operates on gas, it
requires an igniter to light
the gas and create a flame
to heat the air that is used
to dry the clothes. It also
requires a flame sensor to ensure that the flame continues
to burn inside the flame chamber. When the dryer does
not creates enough heat to dry your clothes, or if it does
not ignite a flame, you should test the flame sensor. A faulty
flame sensor will not allow the dryer to ignite and must be
replaced.
