The Robertshaw 1830-704 is a professional-grade pilot electrode assembly designed for high-efficiency gas ignition systems. As part of the 1830-700 Series Uni-Kit line, this component features a 25-degree right flame pattern, providing precise directional heat for rapid and reliable main burner ignition. This unit is built for durability with an electrode permanently riveted to the pilot frame, maintaining a consistent 1/8-inch spark gap to prevent nuisance lockouts. The 30-inch lead length offers ample reach for complex furnace and appliance configurations, ensuring a secure connection to the ignition control module. Engineered as an aerated, non-linting pilot, the Robertshaw 1830-704 Pilot eliminates the need for air shutters or supplementary shields, reducing field maintenance time. This assembly includes both natural gas and liquid propane orifices, making it a versatile OEM replacement part for technicians performing retrofits or direct repairs in heating applications.
