ABSTRACT:
A system for controlling the pilot and main burner gas valves of a gas furnace or the like, including a pilot spark ignitor and a pilot flame sensor. A system with both pilot and main burners normally off, with the pilot burner being turned on when the thermostat switch closes and with the main burner being turned on when the pilot flame is established, with the main burner being turned off whenever the pilot flame goes out. An electronic circuit with the flame sensor as an input for switching the main burner valve solenoid on and off, with the electronic circuit having a fail safe configuration such that failure of any component between the flame sensor and the relay controlling the main valve solenoid will result in the solenoid being unenergized.
