GAS IGNITION CONTROLS

24 VAC INTERMITTENT PILOT
IGNITION CONTROLS
When the thermostat calls for heat, the 780-845 control simultaneously ini-
tiates ignition sparking and opens the pilot valve portion of the gas valve.
Pilot flame recognition stops ignition sparking and opens the main valve
portion of the gas valve. Pilot burner flame is continuously monitored at a
synchronous frequency for the duration of the heating cycle. Should the
pilot flame fail during the heating cycle, the control will shut off the main
valve until the pilot flame is established.
The 708-845 lockout ignition control provides 90 seconds of spark, fol-
lowed by a 6 minute time delay (purge) between ignition attempts. After
three tries, if no pilot flame is sensed, the control goes into a
one-hour
lockout period. At the end of the lockout period, if the demand for heat is
still present, the unit will repeat the three tries for ignition.
NOTE: During lockout, you may override the auto-system, and manually
reset the unit at the thermostat.

NOTE: The green diagnostic LED will be on continuously for normal
operation. The LED will be off for internal lockout and will flash con-
tinuously for problems external to the control (ie. not sensing flame).
