Fisher Paykel 250130 Thermocouple Bbq KE200 48

Product Description

The FISHER PAYKEL 250130 is a replacement thermocouple designed for use with Fisher Paykel BBQ gas appliances, specifically the KE200 series. A thermocouple is a safety sensing device that monitors the presence of a pilot flame and signals the gas valve to remain open when a flame is detected. If the pilot goes out, the thermocouple cools and causes the gas valve to shut, preventing unburned gas from accumulating. This component is installed by qualified gas appliance technicians and is a critical safety part in any gas-fired outdoor cooking appliance.

This thermocouple is intended for use in residential outdoor gas BBQ appliances. The part number and title reference the KE200 model and a 48-inch lead length, making it a direct-fit replacement for qualifying Fisher Paykel BBQ configurations. Installation is typically performed during routine safety maintenance or when a standing pilot fails to hold after the pilot button is released, indicating thermocouple failure.

Key Features

• OEM-referenced replacement thermocouple for Fisher Paykel BBQ appliances
• 48-inch lead length accommodates standard gas appliance valve and burner configurations
• Functions as a flame-failure safety device, shutting gas flow when pilot extinguishes
• Direct-fit design simplifies field replacement without modification

Compatibility

Referenced for use with the Fisher Paykel KE200 BBQ series based on supplier product data. Verify model and configuration before ordering.

Installation Notes

Thermocouple replacement should be performed by a licensed gas appliance technician familiar with ANSI Z21 standards and local gas codes. Always shut off the gas supply at the appliance shutoff valve before beginning service. The thermocouple tip must be properly positioned in the pilot flame to generate adequate millivolt output and hold the gas valve open. Do not over-tighten the thermocouple connection nut at the gas valve — hand-tight plus a quarter turn is the standard practice referenced in most gas appliance service procedures.
