Resideo S8801A1046 Ignition Control

The Resideo S8801A1046 Ignition Control is a specialized direct spark ignition (DSI) module designed for low-voltage gas-fired applications, including furnaces, boilers, and commercial heating equipment. When replacing an older S89E1058, this module serves as the primary upgrade path, offering a critical 4-second lockout safety timing to prevent gas accumulation during failed ignition attempts. This unit requires an external high-voltage spark generator and utilizes advanced sensing circuitry to achieve a flame failure response time of 0.8 to 1.3 seconds at 5 µA. Engineered to meet UL 60730-1 and UL 60730-2-5 standards, it ensures precise control over the ignition sequence. For technicians troubleshooting intermittent lockout issues, the S8801A1046 provides a stable 24VAC control circuit interface, making it a reliable HVAC replacement part for maintaining system safety and operational efficiency in high-demand environments.

• Direct Cross-Reference: Engineered specifically as the functional replacement for the Honeywell S89E1058, simplifying field installations.
• Rapid Flame Detection: Features a high-sensitivity circuit capable of detecting flame signals as low as 5 µA for industrial gas ignition safety.
• Standardized Compliance: Fully certified under UL 60730 standards, ensuring the control logic meets modern safety requirements for gas-fired appliances.
• Optimized Lockout Timing: The 4-second lockout window provides a rigorous safety margin, essential for preventing hazardous gas buildup in the combustion chamber.

Is the S8801A1046 compatible with hot surface ignition systems?
No, this module is strictly designed for direct spark ignition (DSI) systems. It requires an external spark generator and will not operate a 120V or 24V hot surface igniter.

What are the power requirements for this ignition module?
The Resideo S8801A1046 operates on a 24VAC (60Hz) control circuit. Ensure your transformer has sufficient VA capacity to handle the module and the gas valve load simultaneously.

Can this replace a module with a longer lockout time?
While a shorter lockout time like 4 seconds generally increases safety, always verify the technical specifications and appliance manufacturer's requirements to ensure the burner remains stable during the trial for ignition.
