Abstract

There is provided a control device for a gas burner used for gas cookers, in which the gas burner is connected to a flame monitoring device. The flame monitoring device has a timing device (11) which regulates a closing mechanism of a gas valve (7) or a gas control unit (2) in accordance with a predetermined switch-on time and/or a predetermined switch-off time. In that arrangement the control device (11) can act directly on the gas valve (7). It can however also act on an electromechanical relay (20) or an electro-hydraulic relay (21) which are each connected to a respective bimetal control device of the flame monitoring device.
