R8184G PROTECTORELAY
OIL PRIMARY
APPLICATION
The TRADELINE intermittent ignition oil primary control
operates the oil burner, oil valve (if desired) and the ignition
transformer in response to a call for heat from the thermo-
stat. Through a C554 Cad Cell Flame Sensor, the R8184
monitors the burner flame and shuts down the system on
ignition failure or on flame failure during the run cycle. A light
emitting diode (LED) on the terminal strip lights when the
safety switch opens to provide safety shutdown indication.
A manual reset button is provided to reset the safety switch
after lockout.
For convenience in system maintenance, the safety
switch can be manually opened using a lever on the front of
the control. Clock thermostats that power the clock through
the primary control transformer will lose time during lockout
unless backup batteries are installed.
R8184G is component recognized by Underwriters Labo-
ratories Inc. and meets their flammability test requirements
for a final enclosure.

LOCATION
1. Mount on a 4 x 4 inch junction box, directly on the main
burner, or inside the appliance cabinet. In replacement
applications, mount in the same location as the old control.
2. Ensure the operating temperatures are within the am-
bient temperature range. Ambient temperature ranges are

MAKE WIRING CONNECTIONS AND MOUNT CONTROL
Wiring must comply with all local codes and ordinances.
Before mounting the control, make line voltage connec-
tions as shown in Fig. 1 or 2. Splice leads with solderless
connectors. Do not exceed load ratings shown on the device
label.
If cad cell leads are run with line voltage wires, breakout
knockout at the bottom of the low voltage terminal strip and
thread can cell leads through the hole.
If necessary use control as a template to mark and drill new
mounting holes. Mount using No. 6 screws (obtain locally).
