2 Series Y75 Replacement Sensing Probe for Electronic Ignition Systems Installation Instruction
Perform the following procedure to install the Y75 sensing probe:
1. Turn off the gas at the upstream manual shutoff and disconnect power
to the appliance.
2. Disconnect the sensing probe cable from the old sensing probe.
3. Remove the old sensing probe from the pilot burner.
4. Check the length of Dimension B (see Figure 1) to ensure the correct
replacement probe is being used.
5. Compare the sensing probe rod protrusion length (Dimension A, see
Figure 1). If required, trim the length of the Y75 rod being installed to
the same length as the sensing rod being replaced.
6. Install the Y75 sensing probe into the pilot burner by applying
2-6 inch-lbs of torque.
7. Restore the power and the gas supply to the appliance.
8. Using a microammeter, check the signal passing through the sensing
probe. Refer to Table 2 for minimum flame sensing currents for
various ignition controls.
9. If the microampere signal is marginal (minimum + 0.1 microamperes),
trim the Y75 sensing probe in increments of 0.125 in. (3.17 mm),
taking care that there is still proper flame impingement on the sensing
probe.
10. Reconnect the sensing probe cable to the new sensing probe. Before
leaving the installation, observe at least three complete operating
cycles to see that all components are functioning correctly.
