Reznor 131457 Pilot Kit
The Reznor 131457 Pilot Kit is a field-proven vertical mount natural gas pilot assembly engineered for specific Reznor SC-6 and SC-7 series unit heaters. This OEM replacement kit ensures precise flame rectification and reliable ignition in systems requiring a 131457H9 configuration. The assembly includes a complete natural gas pilot burner, a 14-inch lead length flame sensor rod, and the necessary pilot tubing with compression fittings for a direct-fit installation. Designed to withstand the high-temperature demands of commercial and industrial heating environments, this HVAC ignition component provides the consistent millivolt signal required to keep the main gas valve energized. Precise pilot flame adjustment is facilitated by the included natural gas orifice, ensuring optimal combustion and preventing nuisance lockouts. When performing furnace pilot replacement, verify the flue configuration, as this vertical assembly is optimized for heaters equipped with stainless steel flues and specific sensor lead requirements.
Key Benefits- Direct OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed for Reznor SC-6 series and SC-7 series HVAC systems using vertical mount pilot configurations.
- Comprehensive Kit Components: Includes the pilot assembly, flame rod, sensor lead assembly, and compression fittings for a complete field swap.
- Optimized Combustion: Features a dedicated natural gas orifice for precise fuel-to-air mixtures and stable pilot operation.
- Industrial-Grade Build: Constructed to endure continuous thermal cycling, reducing service calls related to pilot flame failure.
Is the flame probe included in the 131457 kit?
Yes, the kit includes the flame rod and sensor lead assembly; however, certain SCA-6 models may require part number 126101 as an auxiliary component depending on the specific heater generation. Always verify against your unit's wiring diagram.
Can this pilot kit be converted for propane (LP) use?
While the Reznor 131457 is a dedicated natural gas pilot kit, it includes orifices that are fuel-specific. Ensure you are using the correct orifice for your fuel source to maintain safe combustion standards.
What are the symptoms of a failing Reznor pilot assembly?
Common indicators include the burner failing to ignite, frequent ignition retries, or a signal drop-out at the ignition module due to carbon buildup or oxidation on the flame sensor.
