Key Features
- On-Off primary control with integrated Valve Proving System (VPS) for enhanced safety
- Compatible with automatically fired gas, oil, or combination fuel single-burner applications
- 120Vac operating voltage for standard commercial power compatibility
- Selectable Pilot Flame Establishing Period (PFEP): 4-second or 10-second options to suit application requirements
- Selectable interlocks for flexible system integration and customized safety logic
- Valve proving feature confirms valve integrity prior to burner ignition, reducing the risk of unsafe startups
- Shutter drive output for optical scanner shutter control
Valve Proving System (VPS)
The built-in VPS tests the integrity of the fuel shutoff valves before each burner cycle. This critical safety function helps ensure that no fuel leakage is present prior to ignition, meeting stringent safety standards for commercial and industrial burner systems.
Flexible Pilot Flame Establishing Period
With a user-selectable PFEP of either 4 seconds or 10 seconds, the RM7898A1018 can be configured to match the specific ignition requirements of the burner and fuel type, providing operational flexibility without sacrificing safety.
Selectable Interlocks
The selectable interlock feature allows technicians to tailor the control’s safety circuit logic to the specific demands of the installation, supporting a wide range of burner management configurations.
Typical Applications
- Commercial and industrial gas-fired burners
- Oil-fired single-burner systems
- Combination fuel (gas/oil) burner applications
- Automatically fired heating equipment requiring valve proving
