INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Operator: Save these instructions for future use!

FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING THIS CONTROL COULD CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

DESCRIPTION

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.

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.

!WARNING

Do not use on circuits exceeding specified volt- age. Higher voltage will damage control and could cause shock or fire hazard.
