Pilot Flame Characteristics

Figure 7 shows a correct pilot ﬂame pattern. The correct ﬂame will be blue and will extend beyond the thermocouple. The ﬂame will surround the thermocouple just below the tip. A slight yellow ﬂame may occur where the pilot ﬂame and main burner ﬂame meet. Figure 8 shows an incorrect pilot ﬂame pattern. The incorrect pilot ﬂame is not touching the thermocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to cool. When the thermocouple cools, the heater will shut down.

Cleaning and Maintenance/Pilot

Oxygen Depletion Sensor Pilot (Figure 9)

When the pilot has a large yellow tip ﬂame, clean the Oxygen Depletion Sensor as follows:

1.Clean the ODS pilot by loosening nut B from the pilot tubing. When this procedure is required, grasp nut A with an open end wrench.

2.Blow air pressure through the holes indicated by the arrows. This will blow out foreign materials such as dust, lint and spider webs. Tighten nut B also by grasping nut A.

Warning:

Never use needles, wires, or similar cylindrical objects to clean the pilot to avoid damaging the calibrated ruby that controls the gas ﬂow.
