Re: Oil Burner Igniter
Igniter? Don't think so, brother.
Electrodes, perhaps. They are not a wear item. Your Carlin part number is for an ignition transformer. The "test" them is to short the terminals with an insulated handle screwdriver, keep the screwdriver touching one terminal and "lift" the spark from the other terminal. If you can lift the spark at least 3/4", the transormer is fine. The output is aroudn 15,000 volts, so use your head, or you'll never forget that shock. If your unit is still smoking, I'd suspect the air shutter vibrated out of position or something related to the air flow. What's your CO % from the Bacharrach test? How does your nozzle GPM compare to the one you replaced and the one on the unit's dataplate? Was that a soft pack combustion chamber? If so, and it was oil soaked, it will smoke for a good while.

My Electrodes Look In Good Shape And Yes Part No: Is For Ignition Transformer. The Air Shutter Has Not Move Since The Unit Has Been Installed It Is Set At 0.80 . The Combustion Chamber Was Band Clamped To A Metal Plate 12"x12' Screwed On From Out Side,what Is That Made Off Because It Is Very Soft. I Cleaned Out Dirt Inside That Too. Nozzel Spec On Unit -thermoflow Lbo/hbo 85 -105 - 120 _oes Hago 70a Del (what is oes and what is del) Can Not Make Out First Diget 6 Or G ? Sorry Cant Give You Co% Because I Am A Carpenter Not A Hvac Man Do Not Know What A Bacharrach Test Even Is. Chamber Was Removed Friday And Sat On Rag For 2-3 Hours Did Not Try Relight Untill Sat 5:30--6:00 With No Irsh Luck . Only Sent This Out Because Did Not Hear From My Hvac Guys. These Are Good Guys I Use Them On Jobs I Do As A Carpenter And Alway Keep Me Out Of Trouble. The Heater Should Light Right Away yes ,I Only Ran It For 15sec Because Of Oil In To Chamber. Thank You Very Much For Your Reply. i have all paper work for this unit Last edited by KGB; 03-03-2007 at 09:14 PM. |
