Description

The Blodgett BL8717 Burner Orifice regulates the flow of gas by forcing the fuel through an opening that has been calibrated, and then it is directed to the burner. When the gas is flowing through the valve, the pressure and flow rate are adjusted to correspond to the design of the burner. This opening is fitted on the gas manifold, which is placed on the inlet of the burner tube. The component is employed in installation or servicing to adjust the correct gas supply in the fuel system of the cooking equipment.
