4.5 General Range Terminology
The following table defines common terms that are
typically used when dealing with ranges.
Term Definition
Burner Box
The component found in the appliance
that holds the burner.
Burner
Electrode
The spark source used to light the top
burners with Piezo/12 VDC electronic
ignition.
Burner Flame
Li Off
An event that occurs when flames li off of
the burner.
Burner Head
(Burner)
The component in the appliance where
combustion occurs, creating the main
source of heat.
Burner Supply
Valve
A mechanical device used to start or stop
the flow of gas.
Calibration
The process used to set the oven
thermostat so it registers temperatures
properly.
Control Knobs
The devices on the top or front of a
cooktop that signal a burner to turn on and
off. They control the heat from the burner.
Term Definition
Cooktop
The component of an appliance that
provides a surface for cooking. Can be
stand-alone or part of a range.
Cycling
The term describes the on/off operation of
an appliance.
Flex Line
A corrugated, stainless steel tube that
conducts gas to the appliance.
Gas Pressure
The term that describes the amount of
gas being supplied to the appliance,
measured in inches of water column
(W.C.).
Gas Regulator
A device that reduces the high pressure
from the LP bottles to a lower pressure.
It receives up to 13-in. W.C. gas pressure
and reduces the pressure to 10-in. W.C. to
the manifold.
Manifold
The constantly pressurized tube or pipe
that supplies gas to the burner valves.
Manifold
Bracket
The component that holds the manifold in
place.
Manometer
The tool used to measure gas pressure in
inches of W.C.
Orifice
A precision-drilled, thimble-shaped
component that meters gas flow to the
main burner.
Orifice Holder The component that holds the orifice.
Oven Bulb
The light bulb located in the oven that
turns on and off based on the position of
the oven light switch.
Oven Burner
The component in the appliance where
combustion occurs, creating the main
source of heat for the oven.
Oven Door
Seal
A gasket mounted on the oven door to
seal the space between the door and the
oven and prevent heat from escaping.
Oven Flue
(Vent)
An opening in the oven that allows exhaust
to circulate out of the oven.
Oven
Thermostat
This component regulates the temperature
of the oven at the desired cooking
temperature and supplies gas to the pilot
assembly and main burner.
Piezo Ignitor
An electro-mechanical device that can be
used to ignite a top burner.
Pilot Assembly
(Range Pilot)
The assembly consists of a thermocouple
and a pilot hood. It is where gas passing
through the orifice is directed to the oven
burner pilot holes.
Pilot Gas Line This line conducts the gas flow to the pilot.
Thermal Bulb
The bulb located in the oven and
connected to the oven thermostat that
contains thermal fluid and causes the oven
thermostat to close and open based on
the set cooking temperature.
