R4184D; R8184G,M,N,P 
Protectorelay® Oil Primary Controls

APPLICATION

The intermittent ignition R4184D and R8184G,M,N,P Oil 

Primary Controls operate the oil burner, oil valve (if 

desired) and the ignition transformer in response to a 

call for heat from the thermostat.

The R8184M also provides automatic, nonrecycling 

control of cooling systems and low voltage thermostat.

The R8184P provides 15-second valve on delay and 

selectable 0-, 2-, 4-, 6-minute blower off delay for 

hydronic and warm air systems. Select models have 30-

minute blower off delay timing.

All models use the C554A Cadmium Sulfide (cad cell) 

Flame Detector to monitor the burner flame and shut 

down the system on ignition failure or on flame failure 

during the run cycle. A manual reset button is provided 

to reset the safety switch after lockout. Clock 

thermostats (not available on R8184P) that power the 

clock through the primary control transformer lose time 

during lockout unless backup batteries are installed.

All models (except the R8184G1310 and R8184G1328) 

are Underwriters Laboratories Inc. component 

recognized and meet flammability test requirements for 

a final enclosure.

NOTE:

R8184P is intended for use on oil burning appli-

ances that do not require a safety rated pre-

purge and postpurge function as defined in UL 

296. The valve on delay and blower off delay in 

this control are only intended to help establish 

draft and reduce oil after drip-related problems.

INSTALLATION

When Installing This Product…

1.

Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow 

them could damage the product or cause a haz-

ardous condition.

2.

Check the ratings given in these instructions to 

make sure the integrated furnace control is suit-

able for your application.

3.

Installer must be a trained, experienced service 

technician.

4.

After completing the installation, use these 

instructions to check out the product operation.

CAUTION

1. Disconnect the power supply before beginning 

installation to prevent electrical shock or 

equipment damage.

2. Be sure the combustion chamber is free of oil 

or oil vapor before starting the system.

Location

1.

Mount on a 4 x 4 junction box, directly on the main 

burner housing or inside the appliance cabinet. 

See Fig. 1.

2.

Be sure that operating temperatures are between 

-40°F and +130°F (-40°C and +54°C). Select 

R8184G,P models have a maximum temperature 

of 150°F (66°C), but must be mounted parallel to 

the ground to achieve 150°F (66°C). See Fig. 2.

Fig. 1. Wire and mount 130°F (54°C) maximum ambient 

temperature oil primary control.
