Bard 8620-039 Pilot Assembly

For contractors maintaining Bard HVACR systems, the Bard 8620-039 Standing Pilot Assembly is your go-to direct replacement for the legacy 8554-002 and Honeywell Q314AFB units. This assembly is engineered to ensure consistent, reliable ignition across a range of gas-fired appliances, including furnaces, water heaters, and boilers. It's a non-primary aerated, target-type pilot burner designed for standing pilot applications, crucial for maintaining system uptime and safety. The 8620-039 integrates a robust thermocouple for precise pilot flame temperature monitoring and automatic gas valve control, a dedicated pilot tube for continuous gas supply, an igniter for reliable spark generation, and a critical safety shutoff valve to cut gas flow when necessary. Compatible with both natural and LP gas, this assembly includes interchangeable orifices (BCR-18 for natural gas, BBR-10 for LP) and features a 1/4 inch compression fitting with a versatile "B" mounting bracket and "A" bracket adapter, offering installation flexibility. Proper pilot flame adjustment, enveloping 3/8 to 1/2 inch of the thermocouple tip, is key for optimal performance.
