GAS CONTROL VALVE FOR WATER HEATER

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simplify the connection structure of a single pole overheat inhibiting terminal of a magnet circuit in a gas control valve of a water heater. SOLUTION: In a continuous pilot type hot water storage water heater which controls the temperature of hot water in a can body automatically, the single pole overheat inhibiting terminal 7 is provided, separately from a gas cutoff magnet valve MV provided in an upstream side of a gas flow passage 1, on a flicker main body A by supporting the same by a coming-off-preventing protrusion 15 integrally formed on a lid 14 of the flicker device in such a manner as to be prevented from coming off. A burner flame detecting thermocouple TC is made to be capable of approaching to and separating from the single pole overheat inhibiting terminal 7 and the gas cutoff magnet valve MV of a magnet circuit and the burner flame detection thermocouple TC are connected through the single pole overheat inhibiting terminal 7.
