I am assuming that you mean switching a millivolt gas value. The switch applies a voltage to the gas valve thus allowing gas to flow. The voltage is provided by a thermopile. This device transforms the heat from the pilot into a voltage that can be used to control the valve. This system does not require an external voltage source. It does require the pilot to continuously operate. A thermopile consists of a number of thermocouples that are wired in series. This allows an increase in the voltage that would be provided by a single thermocouple.
One thousandth part of a volt. Correct Answer=0.001
A millivolt pool heater has a standing pilot (meaning it is always lit). This uses a small amount of energy as well as it can attract bugs and vermine to its warmth. Millivolt heaters are considered older technology. Electronic ignition heaters have electronics that allow the pilot to be lit only just when you are starting the heater. These electronic componants usually also allow for self-diagnostic features on most heaters. This is considered newer technology and is the direction the industry is moving in. Millivolt heaters are usually slightly less expensive and are easier to work on mechanically, but electronic heaters are becoming more popular and technicians are learning to work on them more and more and they will soon replace Millivolt heaters. You can find great deals and free shipping on both Millivolt and Electronic ignition heaters and more information at www.swimmingpoolsetc.com!
it works as a switch
that would be 1000. milli means one thousandth of the base unit (volt) millimeter is one thousandth of a meter. milliliter is one thousandth of a liter. milligram is one thousandth of a gram
It's a standing pilot light, the flame also produces constant low levels of electricity (Millivolts) to control the safety and gas valves.
A milliVolt.
I don't believe so. Most likely you are tripping a limit switch.
One millivolt is 1000 times larger than one microvolt.
yes

A millivolt (mV)
1 millivolt = 0.001 volt
This depends on the switch. A lot of older fireplaces have a millivolt valve with a toggle-switch sticking out. We usually remove the toggle switch and run the 2 wires that were connected to the toggle to a remote receiver box. This way any simple remote transmitter will act like an electrical toggle switch. Most receivers will recognize hundreds of thousands of signals so this is usually very convenient and takes about 3 minutes to turn a manual switch into a remote switch.
A voltage amplifier (high input and output impedances) with a gain of 83.5 dB will amplify a signal of 1 millivolt to an output of 15 volts.
How works the inertia switch in a 96 winstar? Answer: When the car is hit in the front or the back it will throw a spring-loaded switch. This switch in turn disconnects the power to the fuel pump. The switch must then be reset. pjwetherington@hughes.net
There no electrical units for measurement of volatage that are smaller than a volt. A millivolt (1/1000 volt) A microvolt (1/1000 millivolt) A nanovolt (1/1000 microvolt).
by turning it ON in the Switch.
