A thermopile generates a small DC voltage by converting heat from the pilot flame into electrical energy, supplying the millivolt signal needed to hold the main gas valve open during normal operation. This component is installed by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians servicing residential and light commercial water heaters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 100112327 thermopile is suited for millivolt gas control systems found in natural gas and liquid propane water heaters. It serves as a direct service replacement in units that rely on a standing pilot ignition system rather than electronic ignition. Technicians replace this component when millivolt output has degraded below the threshold required to keep the gas valve energized, resulting in pilot outage or no-heat conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConverts pilot flame heat into a millivolt DC signal to power the gas valve control circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for standing pilot ignition systems in gas-fired water heaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM-style replacement for reliable fit and function in AO SMITH water heater applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports self-powered millivolt control circuits that require no external electrical supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement thermopile for AO SMITH gas water heater models using a standing pilot, millivolt gas control system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified gas appliance technician. Before servicing, shut off the gas supply to the water heater and allow the unit to cool completely. Connections at the gas valve and pilot assembly should be inspected for proper seating and leak-tested after reassembly in accordance with local gas codes and IFGC guidelines. Do not operate the unit with a degraded or incorrectly seated thermopile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Thermopile\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: AO SMITH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100112327\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TAILWIND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51149601571122,"sku":"100112327","price":57.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305988342.jpg?v=1778598205","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ao-smith-100112327-thermopile","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
