Surface Burner Orifice Holder for Range/Stove/Oven:
Mounting screws for this component can be purchased separately. This Orifice Holder is an authentic OEM part tailored for Whirlpool gas ranges, featuring both the spark electrode and a 9.2k orifice. These parts are vital for initiating and controlling gas flow in the burner system.
The spark electrode is essential for creating the spark needed to ignite the gas, allowing the burner to produce a flame. At the same time, the 9.2k orifice plays a critical role in modulating the gas flow to the burner, ensuring the correct gas-to-air ratio for efficient and safe combustion.
Typical causes of orifice holder issues may include standard wear, corrosion, damage from debris, or improper adjustment.
Indicators of potential failure in the orifice holder might encompass:
- Inconsistent or missing ignition spark
- Unsteady or weak flame
- Difficulty in flame regulation
- Detectable gas odor or leaks
This authentic Whirlpool part also fits models from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears.
