A redundant gas valve has two or three valve operators physically in series but wired in parallel with one another. This built in saftey feature allows any operator (pilot or main) to block gas from getting to the main burner.
EX: standing pilot, intermittent pilot, and direct burner are classified as redundant gas valves.

What do you do if a oxy-acetylene gas is leaking from welding bottles?
It depends on where the gas is leaking. If it is from the regulator connection sometimes just readjusting and tightening the grooved nut will stop the leak. Turn off the valve and remove the regulator. Check for dirt particles and damage to the seat and regulator bulb (the fat part that fits against the seat), open and close the valve quickly to blow out any loose particles, reattach the regulator. Check to see if the gas is still escaping. If it is, the regulator bulb or the valve seat may be damaged. All cylinders have a fuseable plug and if it is leaking from there evacuate the area immediately and call emergency personnel. If it is from the valve area you may be able to stop the leak by tightening the packing nut at the base of the valve stem. With the regulator attached open the cylinder valve slightly and tighten the packing nut. Check to see if this stops the leak. If immediate attempts fail, evacuate the area.

How do you prevent boiler explosion?
All boilers are made to a pressure specification and in most countries any pressure vessel over a certain size is required to be periodically inspected and pressure tested to ensure it is fit for purpose. In addition to being in sound condition, the boiler is also expected to have some form of pressure relief valve. This is of sufficient size to vent off excess pressure before it gets to an explosive situation. It is obviously important that the pressure of this device is set to a lower level than the ultimate pressure specification of the boiler. Even quite small boilers, like those in coffee makers need to be inspected. Some boilers are 'gas fired' such as home heating boilers. These have a device called a thermocouple that detects the flame and is linked to the gas valve. If the flame goes out, or the burner does not ignite when gas is released in the boiler, it will shut the gas off. Typically gas fired boilers have a number of devices that will shut off the gas in the event that something doesn't work. This means that if the gas supply pipe is in sound condition, the boiler itself cannot leak gas and cause an explosion.
Where is the mixing valve in the boiler?
Mixing valve usually for tempering domestic hot water.
In boiler feed water line whether a non return valve should precede or succeed the delivery valve of feed water pump?
In boiler feed water line the NRV is normally installed between Pump and stop valve if the line is short and an another NRV is installed at boiler entrance and after stop valve if the line is long or pump is 10 to 15 m away from the boiler.
What is an redundant gas valve.?
A redundant gas valve is a safety feature in a gas system where two valves are installed in series to ensure that gas flow can be shut off if one valve fails. This redundancy helps prevent gas leaks and potential hazards.
What is the reason for a furnace to go through all the systems of operations and the ignitor sparks but no gas?
Typically, it is going to be the gas valve. The system sends a 24 volt signal to the gas valve and it opens. I you are getting 24 vols to the gas valve and no gas, it will be the valve.
Which is one is the redundant when sodium metal reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce salt and hydrogen gas?
Producing salt and producing hydrogen gas are not redundant in this reaction. When sodium metal reacts with hydrochloric acid, salt (sodium chloride) is formed along with the release of hydrogen gas.
where can i get a pilot valve?
where can i get a pilot valve for gas air compressor
What is the millivolt range of a gas valve?
The millivolt range of a gas valve is typically around 250 to 750 millivolts. This low voltage is generated by a thermocouple or a thermopile and is used to open and close the gas valve to control the flow of gas.
How do you test a millivolt gas valve?
You can test a millivolt gas valve with a multimeter by measuring voltage across the valve terminals while the gas valve is energized. The reading should be in the range of 500-750 millivolts to indicate that the valve is operating correctly. Additionally, you can visually inspect the valve for any signs of physical damage or corrosion.
What happens to the flame size when the gas control valve is turned?
When the gas control valve is turned, adjusting it will regulate the flow of gas to the burner. By opening the valve more, the flame size will increase as more gas is released. Conversely, by closing the valve, the flame size will decrease as less gas is able to reach the burner.
How do you remove concrete from a gas valve?
Your kidding me right; replace the valve.
What Flame present with gas valve off?
If a flame is present with the gas valve off, it indicates a potential issue with the gas control valve or a gas leak. In this situation, it is important to immediately shut off the gas supply, ventilate the area, and contact a qualified technician to inspect and repair the gas appliance.
How does a gas cylinder work?
The gas is entered through a valve (tube).Stating the obvious; it comes out from the valve,(tube) when opened.
What is valve turning diagram?
Valve turning diagram is a diagram that shows how to turn on and off gas. This is known as a gas meter.
How do you siphon gas from neon gas tank?
