Robertshaw 1830-489 Pilot Uni-Kit
For technicians and contractors looking for a versatile pilot replacement, the Robertshaw 1830-489 Pilot Uni-Kit is a consolidated solution designed for incinerator-target pilot applications. This kit, factory model 6CH14-6, features a 3rd-way flame pattern and is engineered to be compatible with 1/4 inch pilot tubing. The 1830 series is uniquely aerated, combining the stability of incinerator-style pilots with the precision of target-type models. It features non-linting characteristics, eliminating the need for air shutters or secondary shields during field installation. Each Robertshaw pilot assembly comes pre-shipped with a natural gas orifice installed and includes a separate LP gas orifice for easy fuel conversion. To maximize field compatibility, the kit includes an adapter to transition from threaded 2CH thermocouples to 2C snap-in thermocouples, ensuring a reliable fit for virtually any 1830 series application.
Key Benefits for the Contractor- Universal Compatibility: Includes an adapter to convert threaded thermocouple/thermopile connections (2CH) to snap-in types (2C).
- Field Flexibility: Designed for both natural gas and propane (LP) systems with orifices provided for both fuel types.
- Maintenance-Free Air Intake: The aerated design features non-linting characteristics to prevent clogging and flame lifting in dusty environments.
- Versatile Mounting: Utilizes mounting bracket type 6 and hood type 6 to match original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications across various brands.
- Simplified Installation: No air shutters or supplementary shields are required, reducing setup time on the job site.
