Whirlpool WP694424 Dryer Gas Leak Limiter
Product Description
The Whirlpool WP694424 is a security device significant for your gas-powered dryer, functioning as a dryer gas leak limiter. This little component is critical in avoiding uncontrolled gas flow in the event of a fault in the gas line or pressure regulator. Consider the WP694424 a little safety valve for the gas line going to your dryer's burner. It normally operates as a capped screw with a predetermined pressure setting.During normal operation, gas flows through the line at a constant pressure to power the dryer's burner. However, if a leak or failure happens, causing the gas pressure to exceed the permitted level, the WP694424 kicks in. The increasing pressure within the line presses on a small spring or diaphragm inside the limiter.
