Installing Jumper on Back of Programmer (Fig. 6)
Some R4140G, L, and M models have provisions for
extending the main burner flame-establishing period
(MBFEP) at terminal 6 by installing a jumper on the back of
the programmer. If you are installing one of these models,
determine the required MBFEP. If you need the longer period
provided at terminal 6, install the jumper (included in a bag
assembly with the R4140) between the terminals labeled
JUMPER TO EXTEND MAIN IGN. TRIAL on the back of the
programmer. If you do not need the longer period, leave the
jumper off.
NOTE:
Some R4140 models for use in Australia have
jumper terminals on the back of the programmer for
safety shutdown alarm options; these jumpers
cannot be used to extend the MBFEP. These R4140
models are shipped with a jumper link between the
N.O. screw terminals on the back of the
programmer. This results in alarm operation on
safety shutdown. N.C. screw terminals are provided
for an external auxiliary safety shutdown circuit.
Refer to the R4140 Specifications for these models.
A system can be upgraded from on-off to modulating by
replacing an R4140M with an R4140G (Fig. 7). A system can
be upgraded to meet Factory Mutual and Industrial Risk
Insurers (formerly FlA) requirements by replacing an R4140M
or an R4140G with an R4140L (Fig. 8).

IMPORTANT
Before replacing an R4140, make sure the
replacement model has the required:
— prepurge time.
— pilot/ignition timing on terminal 6.
— 5-second ignition on terminal 18 (if required).
— interlock circuits.
— safety features.
— electrical ratings.
— temperature ratings.
— approvals.

AN R4140L IS SHOWN; R4140G AND R4140M PROGRAMMERS HAVE
FEWER SPRING CONNECTORS. TERMINAL NUMBERS ARE NOT ON
THE PROGRAMMER, BUT ARE SHOWN FOR REFERENCE.

Upgrading Systems
Conveniently, the R4140 family was developed in models of
varying complexity to allow the user to choose the simplest
programmer that meets their application requirements (Table 3).
