Description
The Bradford White 233-46700-00 Thermopile W/Damper is an essential component of gas-fired HVAC systems, especially gas water heaters. It generates 750 mV voltage through heat energy conversion. This voltage then supplies power to the gas valve and other controls to allow safe operations at the same time. Its main use is to measure the temperature of the flue gas and control the position of the damper during the fire and in normal operation to optimize combustion efficiency and safety. This leads to its benefits including reduced power consumption better heat output, and preventing the generation of toxic gases.
