Flame Recognition
The re-igniter module features flame sensing circuitry for
each burner. Any active igniter switch applies 120VAC
to the flame sense circuitry and the sense electrode for
the appropriate burner. With a flame present, the module
reads the direct current to ground that passes through
the flame. If a gas valve is engaged, and the re-igniter
does not read enough current (0.2µA) on the selected
burner; the module will begin sparking on all burners
until flame is established. There is a built in sparking
delay of approximately 1 second to allow for low or
waivering flame conditions.
Spark System
The spark ignition system consists of a 4+0 / 6+0
re-igniter module, spark igniters, and an igniter micro
switch harness. Switches are located on the stem of
each gas valve. Turning a surface burner knob past the
OFF postion, closes the igniter micro switch. The closed
circuit signals the reigniter module to begin sparking
on all burners until flame is detected on the burner
presently engaged.
The spark module sends approximately 1 spark per
second to the spark igniters.
Receiving the Appliance
Installer needs to show consumer location of the gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off.
