Like the natural gas burner control valve, the pilot gas
control valve (PG CV) is a leak-tight and fail safe shutoff
valve which, in addition to controlling the mass flow of
pilot gas, is also part of the gas block. Pilot gas is used to
start the gas turbine. The pilot gas control valve regulates
the amount of natural gas that flow through the pilot gas
burner. The flow of pilot gas is set as a function of Nox
emission data, flame stability, and the humming behavior
of the gas turbine.
