spark generator and energizes the second main valve operator. The

second main valve opens and gas flows to the main burner, where

it is ignited by the pilot burner. The flame current also holds the

safety lockout timer in the reset (normal) operating condition.
When the call for heat ends, both main valve operators are

de-energized, and both main valves in the gas control close.

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when

servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and

dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.

Safety Lockout

S8600H provides 100 percent shutoff, or safety lockout. A timer

starts timing the moment the trial for ignition starts. Ignition spark

continues only until the timed trial for ignition period ends. Then

the module goes into safety lockout. Lockout de-energizes the

first main valve operator and closes the first main valve in the gas

control, stopping pilot gas flow. The control system must be reset

by setting the thermostat below room temperature for one minute

or by turning off power to the module for one minute.
Main Burner Operation

When the pilot flame is established, a flame rectification circuit

is completed between the sensor and burner ground. The flame

sensing circuit in the module detects the flame current, shuts off the
