Description
The BURNHAM NEW YORKER 6016067 Blocked Vent Switch is a safety control component used in boiler-based systems. It is applied in boiler units to monitor flue gas movement and detect vent restriction conditions. The component with gas-fired boilers uses this switch to interrupt burner operation when exhaust flow is restricted, reducing unsafe heat buildup inside the vent path within HVAC systems. It operates through a temperature-sensitive contact that opens when abnormal vent conditions occur, stopping system firing. In compatible heating setups, it is positioned near the draft hood assembly to maintain stable combustion control and consistent boiler response during heating cycles
