The ECONOMITE Model RE32 intermittent spark ignition conversion burner is adaptable to most gas utilization equipment,
including gravity and forced circulation furnaces and boilers, and is particularly recommended for horizontal and downdraft gas
utilization equipment since it needs no draft to maintain a pilot. Power burner design makes it perfectly suited for oil burner
replacement.

flammable vapors and liquids in the
