Fisher Paykel 575162 Thermocouple 350mm

Product Description

The FISHER PAYKEL 575162 is a replacement thermocouple designed for use in gas appliances where accurate flame sensing is required to maintain safe burner operation. A thermocouple generates a small millivolt signal when its tip is exposed to a standing pilot flame, holding open the gas valve as long as the flame is present. If the flame extinguishes, the signal drops and the valve closes automatically, preventing unintended gas flow. This unit measures 350 millimeters in length and is intended for installation by a qualified gas appliance technician.

This thermocouple is suited for residential gas appliances requiring a 350mm lead length. Typical install scenarios include dryers, cooktops, ranges, or water heaters that use a standing pilot ignition system. The part is sourced from FISHER PAYKEL and is intended as a direct OEM-specification replacement for units requiring this exact lead length and connector configuration.

Key Features

• 350mm lead length for proper routing to the gas valve in compatible appliances
• Generates millivolt output to hold the gas valve open during active pilot flame
• Automatic gas shutoff when pilot flame is lost, supporting appliance safety
• OEM-specification replacement part sourced from FISHER PAYKEL

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement thermocouple for FISHER PAYKEL gas appliances requiring a 350mm thermocouple. Refer to your appliance model documentation to confirm fitment before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed gas appliance technician in accordance with local gas codes and the appliance manufacturer service documentation. Shut off the gas supply at the appliance shutoff valve before beginning any service work. Ensure the replacement thermocouple tip is properly seated in the pilot bracket and that the connection at the gas valve is finger-tightened then snugged with a wrench without overtightening. After installation, verify pilot ignition and confirm the gas valve holds before returning the appliance to service.
