Y8610U
Intermittent Pilot Retrofit Kit
GENERAL
The Y8610U is a complete kit for converting conventional
standing pilot systems to intermittent pilot systems. It is used
on gas-fired atmospheric furnaces, boilers, and heating
appliances. Not for use on direct vent or power burner
equipment. Meets ANSI Z21.71 standard for automatic
intermittent pilot ignition systems for field installations.
FEATURES
•
Y8610U kits can be used with either natural or LP gas.
•
Y8610U provides a 90 second maximum ignition trial,
shuts off, waits six minutes nominal, then reinitiates
the pilot ignition sequence. The ignition trial, shutoff,
and wait cycle repeat until the pilot lights or the call
for heat ends.
•
Y8610U kits can be used with either natural or LP gas;
it provides timed trial for ignition and 100 percent pilot
shutoff on loss of flame.
Each kit includes:
— S8610U Intermittent Pilot Module.
— VR8304M Dual Valve Combination Gas Control.
— 392431 Igniter-Sensor.
— 394800-30 Ignition Cable.
— 393691 Natural to LP Gas Conversion Kit.
— Wiring Harness.
— 393690-14 Straight Flange Kit (3/4 in.) .
— Reducer adapters for gas control.
— Adhesive mounting option for S8610.
— Installation hardware.
