Designed, developed and manufactured by Fenwal, these components integrate seamlessly providing maximum system performance

Getting Started - Samples

To ensure proper system design and operation, Fenwal provides sample ignition controls, high-voltage wires and electrodes for trial and evaluation at no charge. To get you started quickly, Fenwal has identified our most popular ignition controls, see Page 8. Whether it is an individual control, complete start-up kit or customized control, Fenwal is ready to provide your gas ignition solution.

Fenwal Ignition Development Center

Send your equipment to us and we'll design, install and qualify a control to meet your exact application requirements. Fully equipped and staffed with trained technicians, the Fenwal Ignition Development Center has proven extremely beneficial for many customers focused on product quality and reducing time-to-market for their appliances.

Start up - Heat Mode

When the thermostat is set above the ambient temperature, 120 VAC are supplied to the L1 terminal. When this occurs the control will power up and perform a self-check routine and begin a pre- purge*, if selected. Following the pre-purge, the gas valve is ener- gized and sparks commence until flame is detected or the Trial For Ignition (TFI) period expires.

When flame is detected, the spark is shut off and the gas valve remains energized. The thermostat and burner flame are constantly monitored to ensure that the system is functioning properly. When the thermostat is satisfied and the demand for heat ends, the gas valve is de-energized immediately and the flame is extinguished.

System Response to Flame Failures

The robust design of our gas ignition controls is demonstrated by their ability to respond to flame failures in a safe manner and provide re-ignition options for the equipment designer.

Flame Failure During Trial-for-Ignition Period

SINGLE TRIAL MODEL

Should the burner fail to light or flame is not detected at the end of the trial-for-ignition period, the gas valve is de-energized immediately and the control will go into lockout mode.

MULTI TRIAL MODEL

Should the burner fail to light or flame is not detected during the first trial for ignition period, the gas valve is de-energized and the control starts the inter-purge sequence before another ignition attempt. After inter-purge, the control will attempt two additional ignition trials. If these attempts are unsuccessful the control will go into lockout mode.

Flame Failure of Established Flame

RE-IGNITION

If the established flame signal is lost while the burner is operating, the control responds and begins sparking within 0.8 seconds. The spark will be energized for the duration of the trial-for-ignition period in an attempt to re-light the burner. If flame is re-established, normal operation resumes.

SINGLE TRIAL MODEL

If the burner does not light after the first attempt, the control will de-energize the gas valve and go into lockout mode. See Lockout Recovery

MULTI TRIAL MODEL

If the burner does not light after the first attempt, the inter-purge sequence is completed between attempts to re-light the burner. If the burner fails to light after the third try, the control will de-energize the gas valve and go into lockout mode. See Lockout Recovery

Lockout Mode (On-Board Safety System)

After single or multiple attempts to light the burner have failed or flame is not established, the control automatically enters lockout mode. The control will not open the gas valve unless there is intervention by the user. See Lockout Recovery.

Lockout Recovery

For lockout recovery, reset the thermostat below ambient temperature or remove the 120 VAC power supply for 5 seconds.

MOUNTING AND WIRING

The 35-72 is not position sensitive and can be mounted vertically or horizontally. The control may be mounted on any surface and fastened with #6 sheet metal screws. Secure the control in an area that will experience a minimum of vibration and remain below the maximum ambient temperature of 80 deg. C (175 deg. F).

All connections should be made with UL approved, 105 deg. C rated, 18 gauge, stranded, 0.054 in. thick insulated wire. Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram when connecting the 35-72 to other components in the system. High voltage spark cables and control wiring harnesses are detailed on Pages 5 and 6.
