What do intermittent pilot modules from Honeywell do?
These ignition modules provide ignition sequence, flame monitoring and safety shutoff for intermittent pilot central furnaces and heating appliances. S8600 and S8660 mod- els provide up to 1.0 A pilot and 1.0 A main valve current rating. S8610 and S8670 provide up to 1.0 A pilot and 2.0 A main valve current rating.
Why do intermittent pilot modules s8600 require special controls?
Some of these appli- cations may make heavy demands on the controls, either because of frequent cycling, or because of moisture, corro- sive chemicals, dust or excessive heat in the environment. In these situations, special steps may be required to pre- vent nuisance shutdowns and premature control failure.
What happens if a pilot module gets wet?
1. The ignition module can malfunction if it gets wet, leading to accumulation of explosive gas. • Never install where water can flood, drip or condense on module. • Never try to use a module that has been wet—replace it. 2. Liquefied petroleum (LP) gas is heavier than air and will not vent upward naturally.
What causes an intermittent pilot module to malfunction?
Heavy accumulation of dust or grease may cause the controls to malfunction. Where dust or grease may be a problem, provide covers for the module and the gas control that will limit environmental contamination. A NEMA 4 enclosure is recommended for the ignition module; see the Electronic Ignition Service Manual, form 70-6604. HEAT
