pull the cord on the pump and check the safety that way on every job and have yet to have any A,B,P or U fail to go into safety.

7184-A's
I was doing a tune-up Friday, Burnham Steel boiler, Beckett, honeywell 7184-A Pimary. Removed the cad cell to check the safe, unit did not go off on safe. I have found two of these controls in the last month,that wouldn't go off on safe.Something to be aware of. Unit was installed in Feb. 06. Todd0 -

Good for You
It's a good thing for you that you are doing your job right and checking the safety. If it is in fact a bad run of controls how many guys are not checking them? I am suprised in 06 the system didn't come with a B control and Clean Cut pump. There's a good chance your bad one is under warranty.
I am very anal and love it when I see someone else the same way.

7184-A
Your right, I installed this unit. I'm going to find out how long this thing was sitting in the warehouse.Will this control have a day code on it anywhere? If you don't check the safe on any primary control, in my opinion you are overlooking the #1 most important function of the control. I don't know about you, but I have seen a fire chamber full of oil, and oil running back through the blast tube, flying around in the squirrel cage, and running out of the weep hole in the bottom of the gun, that's a bad feeling.0 -
COuld it be possible that you pressed the reset button a second time and put the control into pump priming?0 -
remember
The 7184 series has 2 retries after failed ignition...did you wait for 3 failed ignitions to ensure it went into lock out? and it would only be a soft lock out.
It takes 2 resets before hard lockout...so you need to cycle it 3 times, reset, 3x, reset and verifyu it is in hard lock out.
