Wayne 13666-KIT Cad Cell Kit

The Wayne 13666-KIT Cad Cell Kit is a field-proven oil burner replacement part designed for high-performance flame detection in residential and commercial heating systems. Engineered specifically for Wayne FH oil burners and compatible with firing rates from 4 to 13 GPH, this kit acts as a direct cross-reference for the Honeywell C554A1216. The assembly features a high-sensitivity cadmium sulfide (CdS) photo-conductive cell that monitors the burner flame, providing critical safety signals to the primary control. To facilitate flexible installation in deep air tubes, this kit includes 30-inch lead wires and a durable 90-degree mounting bracket for precise sensor alignment. Veteran technicians rely on this cadmium sulfide flame detector to resolve thermal lockout issues and ensure the combustion chamber is properly illuminated before allowing the oil valve to remain open. This OEM-spec kit ensures the burner flame sensor maintains a resistance below 1600 ohms during active combustion for stable, uninterrupted operation.

• Extended Installation Reach: The 30-inch leads provide ample length for complex burner configurations, eliminating the need for splicing in the field.
• Superior Flame Monitoring: Directly replaces the gold-standard Honeywell C554A1216, utilizing high-precision cadmium sulfide technology to prevent nuisance lockouts.
• Universal FH Compatibility: Optimized for Wayne Model FH burners ranging from 4 to 13 GPH, ensuring a broad application range for service fleets.
• Optimized Alignment: The included 90-degree bracket allows for stable positioning within the air tube, ensuring the sensor has a clear line of sight to the oil flame.

• How do I test the Wayne 13666-KIT with a multimeter? To verify performance, measure resistance across the two yellow leads. In total darkness, the sensor should show high resistance (over 50k ohms). When exposed to a bright flame, resistance should drop between 300 and 1000 ohms.
• What causes a cad cell to trigger a safety lockout? Common culprits include a "sooted up" sensor glass, improper alignment of the 90-degree bracket, or resistance readings exceeding 1600 ohms while the flame is present.
• Can this kit be used on other burner brands? While designed for Wayne FH models, this kit is highly versatile for any system requiring a standard cad cell with 30" leads and specific right-angle mounting.
