The 37E73A-9XX INTELLI-IGNITION™ control is a 
combination gas valve, ignition control, and thermostat for 
use on Power Vented water heaters. The microcomputer in 
the control supervises the ignition sequence and timings 
for the water heater, and provides diagnostic codes in case 
of system malfunction.  The control provides direct burner 
ignition using the White-Rodgers’ Silicon Nitride ignitor. The 
control uses the INTELLI-IGNITION™
 
technology to greatly 
extend the ignitor’s life.
Adjustable Regulator Controls: The gas regulator on this 
control requires no field service.  The regulator is factory 
adjustable for the proper burner gas pressure.
