INSTALLATION

NOTE

This control requires a connection to a dead metal ground for proper control operation (mounting screws provided accomplish this requirement). When used in a grounded secondary circuit, T2 terminal must be con- nected to ground.

Some furnace manufacturers paint their furnaces. If so, the paint must be scraped from both sides of a furnace where the grounded mounting hole (identified by a chas- sis ground symbol on the 5059 pilot relight control) comes in contact with the furnace wall (see figs. 1 and 2). To ensure a positive equipment ground, make a final continu- ity check between the control grounding hole and the furnace using an ohmmeter.

Grounding hole is identified with chassis ground symbol

INSTALL THE 5059 CONTROL

Mount the control inside the furnace in a position so that you have enough high voltage spark wire to reach the electrode, but not to expose the control to excessive high temperature conditions caused by the burner flame. The 5059 control can be mounted directly onto the furnace or can be mounted on a standard 2” x 4” switch box.

The 5059 control has a 14” (interior) diamter terminal with a ribbed spike. To connect a high voltage wire, cut the end of the wire flush, to make a flat surface at the wire end. Then push the wire end securely into the spike terminal to ensure a proper connection (see fig. 3).
