Specifications

TRADELINE® MODELS
TRADELINE® models are selected and packaged to pro-

vide ease of stocking, ease of handling, and maximum
replacement value. TRADELINE® model specifications
are the same for standard models except as noted below.

TRADELINE® MODELS AVAILABLE: RA890G

Protectorelay™ Primary Control—120 Vac, 50/60 Hz.

STANDARD MODELS
MODEL:  RA890G Protectorelay™ Primary Control.
VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY: 120V, 208V, 220V, 240V;

50/60 Hz models.

VOLT-AMPERE RATING:

60 Hz: 14 VA maximum, 12 VA standby.
50 Hz: 18 VA maximum, 17 VA standby.

POWER CONSUMPTION:

60 Hz: 9.5W maximum, 3W standby.
50 Hz:10W maximum, 4W standby.

FLAME FAILURE RESPONSE TIME:  0.8 or 3 seconds

(nominal; separate models). 3 second response time rec-
ommended for nonrecycling cutoff system.

FLAME ESTABLISHING PERIOD:  Up to 15 seconds

(nominal).

RECYCLE TIME:  Occurs immediately when flame loss is

recognized. See Flame Failure Response Time.

SAFETY SWITCH TIMING (LOCKOUT TIMING): 15 sec-

onds. Timings are proportional with input voltages and
temperatures. For RA890 classified in Underwriters Labo-
ratories Inc gas groups 6 and 6a and oil group 8, the
maximum safety switch timing with voltages ranging
from 70 to 110 percent of rated voltage and with ambients
ranging from 32

°

F (0

C) to 115

°

F (66

C) are allowed to

be as high as 50 seconds.

DIMENSIONS (Including Subbase):  Approximately 5 x 5

x 5 (127 x 127 x 122 mm).

ALARM CONTACTS (Optional):  Isolated spdt contacts.

Alarm terminals are male quick-connects (female quick-
connects included for field installation). See rating above.

FLAME DETECTOR:  C7027, C7035 or C7044 Ultraviolet

Flame Detector.

MOUNTING:  Q270A Universal Mounting Base (ordered

separately).

ELECTRICAL RATINGS:

a

 If ignition and motor are connected to terminal 3, terminal

4 cannot be used. This prevents overloading relay 1K.

Alarm Contacts: 3.0 A at 24 Vac, or 75 VA pilot duty at

120 Vac in suitable wiring enclosure.

Low Voltage Control Circuit (T-T): 0.17A.

NOTE: Allowable inrush can be up to ten times the pilot duty

rating.
