THESEONE-PIECE.STACK-MOUNTEDOIL BURNER
PRIMARY CONTROLS CYCLE THE BURNER ON
THERMOSTAT DEMAND AND SHUT DOWN THE
BURNER ON FLAME LOSS OR SYSTEM MALFUNC
TION.
□ Combine a Protectorelay unit for cyciing the burner
and a Pyrostat flame detector for sensing temperature
changes of fiue gases up to 1000° F [556° C].
□ RA116A is used with intermittent ignition burners
(formerly called constant ignition burners).
□ RA117A and RA817A are used with interrupted
ignition burners (formeriy cailed intermittent ignition
burners).
