Imperial 28403
PIEZO ROTARY IGNITOR WITH KNOB ONLY (28400)
SKU: IMP28403
Condition: NEW
An ignitor is a device used to initiate combustion - the sequence of exothermic chemical reactions between a fuel and an oxidant accompanied by the production of heat and conversion of a chemical state. The release of heat can also result in the production of light in the form of either glowing or a flame. A gas lighter is a firestarting mechanism used to ignite gas stoves which do not have automatic ignition systems. It relies on a physical phenomenon called the piezoelectric effect to generate an electric spark, which ignites the combustible gas from the stove burner.
In foodservice equipment, a knob may be as simple as a push button or "palm button". A control knob is a rotary control used to provide input to a device when grasped by an operator and turned, so that the degree of rotation corresponds to the desired input . Such knobs are one of the most common components in restaurant equipment control systems and are used to modulate a wide variety of settings such as temperature, viscosity, speed and more.
Piezo speakers and piezo sensors are commonly us in foodservice equipment. Piezo speakers are limited and usually serve as notification or reminder buzzers. A piezoelectric sensor is a device that measures changes in pressure, acceleration, temperature, strain, or force by converting them to an electrical charge. Piezo ignition is a type of ignition that is used in gas grills. Piezo ignition uses the principle of piezoelectricity, which is the electric charge that accumulates in some materials in response to high pressure.
