1-Hour Automatic Timer Gas Shut-off Valve
Product Description
The Fire Magic 1-hour automatic timer shut-off valve is an in-line safety accessory that limits how long gas can flow to a grill or other gas appliance. You set a countdown time, and the valve shuts off gas automatically when the dial returns to OFF. It’s commonly used in shared-wall settings like apartments and condos, or anywhere you want a clear “time limit” on gas flow as part of a safer outdoor kitchen setup.
Key Features
- Automatic gas shutoff using a mechanical countdown dial
- Up to 60 minutes of run time with 20-minute dial increments
- Rated up to 100,000 BTU and a maximum ambient temperature of 125°F
- 1/2" NPT connections on both ends for in-line installation
- May be installed horizontally or vertically
Why Buy
- Helps prevent a grill from being left on indefinitely by limiting the gas flow time
- Simple, mechanical operation with no programming
- Fits standard 1/2" NPT gas piping used in many outdoor kitchen installs
Practical Note
The instructions specify installing the timer in the gas supply line before the grill and connecting the gas supply to the side marked “IN.” It must not be installed within 18" of the grill to avoid overheating that can damage the timer and potentially lead to a leak.
For shorter cook times, the instructions call out an important dial step: if you’re setting less than 20 minutes, turn the dial past 20 minutes first to activate it, then turn it back to your desired time.
