Abstract: Control system for controlling the pilot flame of a combustible gas device, which includes a pilot burner, a main burner, and a valve assembly, which includes a pilot valve that allows/intercepts a flow of gas directed towards the pilot burner, and a main valve that allows/intercepts a gas flow to the main burner, the valve assembly moveable between a closed OFF state, a PILOT state, and an ON state, where gas flows to the main burner. The control system includes a detection device that generates a state signal, and a control unit including a timer, the control unit is operatively connected to the detection device to receive a state signal and to an actuator to close the valve. The control unit starts the timer when the state signal represents the PILOT state, and actuates the actuator for the pilot valve to close it when the timer reaches a preset limit.

Abstract: Valvular control circuit (10) comprising a first valve element (12) coupled with a manual drive member (20) to generate a pilot light (21), a second valve element (14) coupled with a second valve switch (15), a control and command unit (16) coupled with a DC/DC electric voltage converter (17) and able to command said second valve switch (15) by means of a command signal, wherein said valvular control circuit (10) comprises a first thermoelectric power source (22) coupled with the DC/DC electric voltage converter (17), and a second thermoelectric power source (23) coupled with at least one of either the first valve element (12) or the second valve element (14), said thermoelectric power sources (22, 23) both being fed by a pilot light (21).
