Reznor 262971 Relay Kit

The Reznor 262971 Relay Kit is a critical OEM replacement component engineered specifically for Reznor Model TR low intensity infrared heaters. This time delay relay kit is the direct field-replacement for the obsolete Reznor 116044 and Thermodisc 12530305256 models. As a veteran-grade HVAC replacement part, it ensures proper sequencing by regulating the timing of electrical circuits, which prevents short-cycling of the burner and protects the blower motor from unnecessary stress during start-up and shut-down phases.

This genuine Reznor OEM part contains the 209165 relay and comprehensive instruction sheet for field installation. It is designed to integrate seamlessly into existing burner boxes, though contractors should be prepared to drill a 3/32-inch hole to accommodate the updated mounting tab found on the modern 24V time delay relay. For commercial unit heater repair, maintaining the precise factory-specified timing is essential for equipment longevity and combustion efficiency. Using this HVAC relay kit ensures your client's infrared system operates within original manufacturer tolerances without the risks associated with universal, non-delayed components.

• Direct OEM Replacement: Replaces obsolete P/N 116044 and manufacturer #60704A0-4 with factory-specified accuracy.
• System Protection: Precisely manages the sequence of operation to prevent rapid cycling and premature component failure.
• Broad Compatibility: Tailored specifically for the Reznor TR series low-intensity infrared product line.
• Complete Field Kit: includes the modern 209165 relay and required technical documentation for immediate installation.

Is the Reznor 262971 a direct drop-in for the 116044 relay?
While it is the official replacement for the 116044, the physical mounting has been updated. You will need to drill a small pilot hole for the positioning tab as per the included instruction sheet to ensure a secure fit within the burner box.

Can this relay be used on Reznor UDAP or UDAS unit heaters?
No, this specific kit is engineered for the Model TR infrared series. For UDAP/UDAS models, please verify the specific relay or circuit board requirements based on your unit's serial number.

What is the primary function of the time delay in this kit?
It manages the timing between the call for heat and the activation/deactivation of system components, ensuring the heat exchanger is properly tempered and preventing the blower from circulating cold air.
