What it is
The Ideal thermocouple interrupter connection is a flame-supervision component used in Ideal commercial gas appliances. It sits within the thermocouple circuit and interrupts the gas supply when the flame signal is lost, preventing the appliance from firing without a proven flame. It is listed under Ideal part number 068149.
Signs this part needs replacing
- The pilot or ignition flame lights but will not hold once the control is released
- The burner extinguishes shortly after lighting
- Repeated flame-failure lockouts that clear on reset and then return
- Intermittent shutdowns with no obvious pattern in the appliance's operation
- No gas reaching the burner even though a flame is present at the pilot
