ABSTRACT:
A gas valve has a solenoid actuator which is energized to open the valve an de-energized to permit spring closure of the valve. A seal element is secured on the armature of the solenoid armature. The seal element has a skirt portion which sealingly engages an armature sleeve to inhibit exhaust gas vapors from entering the chamber housing the solenoid coil and electronic sensing elements. The solenoid actuator has a pole piece defining one end of the chamber. A plurality of vent slots formed in the pole piece provide communication to atmosphere for the chamber to permit removal of any inadvertent intrusion by moisture or vapor.
