S8910U3000
Heat
Excessively high temperatures can damage controls.
Make sure the maximum ambient temperature at the
control does not exceed the rating of the control. If the
appliance operates at very high temperatures, use
insulation, shielding, and air circulation, as necessary, to
protect the controls. Proper insulation or shielding should
be provided by the appliance manufacturer; verify proper
air circulation is maintained when the appliance is
installed.
INSTALLATION
When Installing this Ignition
System...
1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow
them could damage the components or cause a haz-
ardous condition.
2. Check Tables 1, 2, and 3 to confirm that the S8910U
is a direct replacement for the existing module.
3. Installer must be a trained, experienced service
technician.
4. After installation is complete, check out component
and appliance operation as provided in these
instructions.
WARNING
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD.
CAN CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE
INJURY, OR DEATH.
1. If the ignition module gets wet, it can malfunction,
leading to accumulation of explosive gas.
—
Never install where water can flood, drip or
condense on the module.
—
Never use a module that has been wet. Replace
it.
2. Liquefied petroleum (LP) gas is heavier than air and
can not vent upward naturally.
—
Do not light pilot or operate electric switches,
lights or appliances until you are sure the
appliance area is free of gas.
3. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean the module.
Improper reassembly and cleaning can cause unreli-
able operation.
34-00008EFS—03
CAUTION
1. Disconnect the power supply before beginning wir-
ing to prevent electrical shock or equipment dam-
age.
2. If a new gas control is to be installed, turn off the gas
supply before starting the installation. Conduct a
Gas Leak Test according to the gas control manufac-
turer instructions after the gas control is installed.
3. If a module must be mounted where it can be
exposed to moisture or water, provide a suitable
waterproof enclosure.
4. Using the wire labels provided, label all wires before
disconnecting. Wiring errors can cause improper
appliance operation and create dangerous condi-
tions such as bypassing safety features.
Perform Preinstallation Safety Inspection
A preinstallation safety check of the appliance and venting
system must be done before the replacement module is
installed. If a condition is detected that could result in
unsafe operation, shut off the appliance and advise the
owner of the unsafe condition. Correct any potentially
unsafe condition before proceeding with the installation.
Remove Old Module
Disconnect power supply before doing any work on the
unit. Disconnect and tag the wires from the old module
using the wire labels provided. Remove the old module
from its mounting location.
Mount New Ignition Module
Mount the S8910U Module in the same location as the old
module. Protect the module from exposure to water,
moisture, corrosive chemicals and excessive dust and
grease. Assure that ambient temperature at the module is
within the range listed in the Application section.
Mount the module with the terminals down to protect from
dripping water and dust. The module can also be mounted
with terminals on either side. Do not mount with the
terminals pointing up. Refer to Fig. 1 for mounting
recommendations. When it is necessary to drill new
mounting holes, use the S8910U as a template to mark
the mounting hole pattern. Drill new holes as required.
Fasten securely with four No. 6-32 machine or No. 8 sheet
metal screws.
