Type 3046
Automatic Pilots
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
These Pilots can be used with either A, B, or E series pilot
burners.
Pilot Burners are available in 14 port arrangements,
Bunsen and “Non-linting”, and with a wide choice of
mounting facilities.
Contact Action is SPST snap-action, close-on-rise.
Orifice fittings offer three different styles of connections
each available for the most used gases.
Timing: Contacts close approximately 60 seconds after
the pilot is ignited. Contacts open approximately 40
seconds after the flame is extinguished.
PRECAUTIONS
Operator: Save these instructions for future use!
SPECIFICATIONS
If in doubt about whether your wiring is millivolt, line, or low
voltage, have it inspected by a qualified heating and air
conditioning contractor, electrician, or someone familiar
with basic electricity and wiring.
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.
Do not use on circuits exceeding specified volt-
age. Higher voltage will damage control and could
cause shock or fire hazard.
These automatic pilots may be used with natural, manu-
factured, or mixed gases, and with LP gases where
means are provided for obtaining a 100% shutoff system.
The pilot burner should be equipped with the recom-
mended size orifice fitting.
The metal box containing the switch may be conveniently
mounted in any position. The cover is easily removed,
making the switch terminals readily accessible.
DESCRIPTION
Automatic pilots are required on gas-fired heating equip-
ment to prevent the flow of gas to the main burner if the
pilot flame is not burning or is insufficient to properly ignite
the main burner.
This pilot has automatic reset (automatic recycling) need-
ing merely relighting or possibly only the resumption of
proper gas pressure to put back in operation.
