The Empire R2890 Pilot Burner is a critical component in your furnace's ignition system. It provides a small, continuous flame that ignites the main burner when heat is called for. This specific model is an OEM replacement, ensuring compatibility and reliable performance with Empire DV210 and DV215 furnaces.

4. Instrucións de instalación

Professional installation by a qualified technician is strongly recommended for this component.

1. Preparación: Ensure the furnace's gas supply is turned off and electrical power is disconnected at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Allow the furnace to cool completely if it has been in operation.
2. Acceso: Carefully remove the furnace access panels to expose the pilot burner assembly. Refer to your specific furnace model's manual for detailed access instructions.
3. Disconnect Old Pilot Burner:
   • Disconnect the thermocouple and pilot gas line from the existing pilot burner.
   • Unscrew or unclip any mounting hardware securing the old pilot burner in place.
   • Carefully remove the old pilot burner assembly.
4. Install New Pilot Burner:
   • Position the new Empire R2890 Pilot Burner in the same location as the old unit.
   • Secure it using the appropriate mounting hardware. Ensure it is firmly in place and correctly oriented.
   • Connect the pilot gas line to the new pilot burner. Use a suitable pipe sealant on threaded connections if required by local codes, ensuring it is gas-rated.
   • Connect the thermocouple to the designated port on the pilot burner. Ensure a snug, secure connection.
5. Proba de fugas: After all connections are made, slowly turn on the gas supply. Apply a leak detection solution (e.g., soapy water) to all gas connections. Bubbles indicate a leak. If a leak is detected, turn off the gas supply immediately, tighten the connection, and re-test. Do not proceed until all leaks are eliminated.
6. Restaurar enerxía e proba: Restore electrical power to the furnace. Follow the furnace manufacturer's instructions for lighting the pilot and testing the main burner operation.

5. Funcionamento

The R2890 Pilot Burner operates as part of a standing pilot ignition system. Once the pilot light is manually lit (or automatically if your furnace has an auto-ignition feature for the pilot), the flame heats the thermocouple. The thermocouple generates a small electrical current, which signals the gas valve to remain open, allowing gas to flow to the pilot burner. When the thermostat calls for heat, the main gas valve opens, and the pilot flame ignites the main burners.

If the pilot flame goes out, the thermocouple cools, stopping the electrical current and causing the gas valve to close, thus shutting off the gas supply for safety.

6. Mantemento

Regular inspection and maintenance of the pilot burner are crucial for safe and efficient furnace operation. It is recommended to have your furnace, including the pilot burner, inspected annually by a qualified technician.

• Inspección visual: Periodically check the pilot flame. It should be a strong, steady blue flame, enveloping the tip of the thermocouple. A weak, yellow, or flickering flame may indicate a problem.
• Limpeza: Over time, dust and debris can accumulate around the pilot burner orifice, affecting the flame. With the gas and electrical supply disconnected, carefully clean the pilot burner area using a soft brush or compressed air. Do not use sharp objects to clean the orifice, as this can damage it.
• Thermocouple Check: Ensure the thermocouple is securely seated and its tip is properly positioned within the pilot flame. A loose or improperly positioned thermocouple can cause the pilot to go out.
