S8610U Universal Intermittent Pilot Module
Field service replacement for most Honeywell, Robertshaw,
Johnson, and UTEC (HSC) Intermittent Pilot Ignition Modules.
Provides electronic control of most intermittent pilot ignition
systems used on gas-fired furnaces, boilers, and other heating
appliances.
• Provides ignition sequence, flame monitoring and safety shutoff for
intermittent pilot central furnaces and heating appliances.
• Provides 100 percent pilot gas shutoff if pilot fails to light; after 6-
minute delay, trial for ignition is repeated. Ignition trial/delay
sequence is repeated until the appliance lights or call for heat is
removed.
• For use with Natural or LP gas.
• For use in single rod or dual rod/remote sense applications. Includes
relay contacts for use with any intermittent pilot gas control string
with maximum 1.0A pilot or 2.0A main valve rating; Honeywell
VR8204, VR8304 or VR8345M combination gas control
recommended.
• Functional equivalent of S86, S8600, S8610 and S90 modules.
• Includes spark cable adapters to allow field replacement of both
Honeywell and competitive controls without replacing existing spark
cable.
