Product Description
The GILES 46723 is a propane (LP) orifice designed for use at elevations ranging from 0 to 3999 feet. Orifices control fuel flow rate to the burner by metering the gas through a precisely sized opening, directly affecting combustion quality and heat output. This part is a direct replacement component used in GILES commercial cooking and foodservice appliance burner assemblies. Installation and service should be performed by a qualified gas technician familiar with commercial appliance gas train components.
This orifice is rated for propane fuel service at low-to-moderate elevations, up to 3999 feet above sea level. Elevation-rated orifices are necessary because air density decreases at higher altitudes, requiring adjusted fuel metering to maintain proper air-to-fuel ratios. The 46723 is intended for appliances operating within the 0 to 3999 foot elevation band and should not be used as a substitute for higher-elevation-rated orifices.

Compatibility
Designed as an OEM replacement LP burner orifice for GILES commercial cooking appliances operating on propane at elevations from 0 to 3999 feet. Consult the appliance model documentation or GILES to confirm fitment before installation.
Installation Notes
Orifice replacement on commercial gas appliances must be performed by a licensed gas technician in accordance with local codes and the appliance manufacturer service documentation. Shut off the gas supply at the manual shutoff valve and allow the appliance to cool completely before beginning service. Use appropriate wrench sizing to avoid damaging the orifice seat or fitting threads. Verify gas type and elevation rating match the appliance specification before installing the replacement orifice.
