INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
3098 MERCURY
FLAME SENSOR
3098-134 & 3098-156
Standard Replacement
Mercury Flame Sensor
The 3098-134 and 3098-156 Mercury Flame sensors are
designed as universal replacements for types currently
used on cycling pilot ignition systems. They will replace
sensors used in “thermocouple” type (slip-in) pilot burners.
The bulbs on both flame sensors have additional grooves
to accept retaining clips (C-rings) allowing them to replace
most existing sensors.
The 3098 Flame Sensors are SPDT (single-pole double-
throw) devices, with switchcases designed to plug into
cycling pilot gas valves. These flame sensors should not
be used in appliances other than those listed in the cross
reference.
PRECAUTIONS
If in doubt about whether your wiring is millivolt, line, or low
voltage, have it inspected by a qualified heating and air
conditioning contractor or licensed electrician.
Do not exceed the specification ratings.
All wiring must conform to local and national electrical
codes and ordinances.
This control is a precision instrument, and should be
handled carefully. Rough handling or distorting compo-
nents could cause the control to malfunction.
Do not use on circuits exceeding specified volt-
age. Higher voltage will damage control and could
cause shock or fire hazard.
To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment
damage, disconnect electric power to system at
main fuse or circuit breaker box until installation
is complete.
Shut off main gas to heating system until installa-
tion is complete.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when ser-
vicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper
and dangerous operation.
Following installation or replacement, follow ap-
pliance manufacturer's recommended installa-
tion and/or service instructions to insure proper
operation.
