The Truma Ignition Safety Valve is an integral component of your Truma S 3002/5002 heater's safety system. It operates automatically to ensure safe gas flow.
- When the heater is switched on and an ignition signal is present, the safety valve opens to allow gas to flow to the burner.
- If the flame extinguishes unexpectedly (e.g., due to wind or gas supply interruption), the safety valve will automatically close the gas supply within a specified timeframe, preventing unburnt gas from accumulating.
- This valve does not require manual operation during normal use. Its function is entirely automatic and safety-critical.
