The thermocouple is the flame failure safety device that lets gas keep flowing only while the burner is alight. Wok burners usually take a different thermocouple from the standard burners, and lengths and fittings vary between models, so confirm 30401800054 on your parts list or old thermocouple before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWok burner won't stay lit?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tip of the thermocouple sits in the flame. When it heats up it produces a tiny voltage that holds open a magnet valve in the gas tap, keeping gas flowing to the burner. If the flame goes out, the tip cools, the voltage drops and the valve shuts. When the thermocouple wears out or its tip is bent away from the flame, the burner lights while you hold the knob in but goes out a few seconds after you let go. Clean the tip and check its position before deciding the part has failed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Glen Dimplex part 30401800054\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThermocouple for the wok burner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlame failure safety device\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGas safety part, installation by a licensed gas fitter only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation by a licensed gas fitter\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGas safety devices must be replaced by a licensed gas fitter under Australian rules. Before work starts, the gas supply is turned off and the cooktop isolated from power. The fitter will route the new thermocouple along the same path as the old one, connect it to the gas tap without overtightening, position the tip correctly in the flame, then leak test and check the burner holds its flame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I fit this thermocouple myself?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. In Australia, work on gas appliances, including flame failure devices like this one, must be done by a licensed gas fitter.
