Blodgett BL56463 Oven Pilot Burner-NAT

A pilot burner assembly designed to provide the ignition flame required for natural gas in commercial ovens. This component includes an igniter, a 36-inch wire, and a flame sensor, allowing it to support burner ignition and flame monitoring functions within compatible oven systems. The assembly features a left flame pattern and a 3/16-inch tube size and is configured for natural gas applications. Installed in commercial oven gas systems, the pilot burner maintains a stable pilot flame used to ignite the main burner when heat is required. The integrated flame sensor helps verify flame presence for proper burner operation. Commonly used in compatible Blodgett oven series equipped with solid-state controls, this component plays an important role in reliable ignition and heating performance. Replacing a worn, damaged, or failed pilot burner assembly may help restore proper ignition response and normal oven operation.
