Honeywell Test Harness

SmartValve test harness Part number # 395466 FLAME MEASURING KIT

OR

Part number # 396085 INPUT VOLTAGE TEST HARNESS.

Thanks appreciate any help you can give. A lot of people looking for these. Honeywell was giving them away by the thousands when I was teaching with them on SOURCE PROGRAM. It seems they are no longer available.

    Hi, Tim.

    Both are still listed in the current price book, any distributor should have them, or be able to order them. I don't have any to send you, sorry about that!

    smartvalve

    Hi Tim, here's a little thing I whipped up 4 years ago. I've got a similar one for the ignitor/sensor that's on loan at the moment. Sure is a lot easier than poking needles through the wires.

    smartvalve

    Hi Tim, here's a little thing I whipped up 4 years ago. I've also got one for the ignitor/sensor-that's on loan at the moment. I'm waiting for some of the newer versions to go bad so I can get my hands on the sockets and plugs. Sure is alot easier than sticking pins into the harness.

    oops

    Sorry- I forgot to shrink the photo...
  • Thanks BO BO

    Jackie came through big time. I have always had good luck with Connelly. Thanks a lot for the info.
  • That looks great Rich

    maybe you should apply for a patent.

    test

    Thanks Tim. Whenever I run across something new I make a test jig for it. This uses 3 inputs of a 4 channel amp to prevent loading of the circuit under test.It only draws about .0002 amps(200uA) per circuit.When you start drawing too much you can get very unstable operation of the device under test.Maybe I should just see what kind of market there is...

    Hey Rich..

    Thats a nice device you have. I'm pretty handy with stuff like that. Could I get a parts list for the construction of one for myself, hmmm?

    Can't be much more than a couple caps & resistors inside, am I right?

    we carry them in stock I think they around $14.00 plus
    ups. let me know we can ups next day.

    caps

    Yup, it's got those too. The heart is a low power quad op-amp powered by two lithium batts.(2032's) that last through the heating season. Once I have everything working it gets buried in potting compound- just in case.I'll have to search for the schematic.If you goto "Digi-Key" you'll find better, faster, cheaper op-amps than ever.$4.00 should buy the one you need-pretty cool,huh?Keep your input resistance high-Good Luck.

    Another Supplier

    If you want to order the Smart Valve Test Kits there is a company that sells them online. Go to www.patriot-supply.com. I bought them there in the past and they arrived in 3 days in UPS.

    Op Amps?

    Rich I have no clue what you're talking about. I'm no electronics tech. I bet I could put it together with a material list and schematic though. I can solder and follow a schematic and test. Thats it!

    Part #'s would be great or descriptions without abbreviations so I could look through digikey or bug the guy at radio shack, lol. Thanks.

  • Pete that is a great

    source thanks for the information. Ther are a lot hard to get parts and accessories on that site. It has amazed me that techs have been telling me that these test harnesses are not available. I have now four or five differnt places that hey are availalble.

    Sorry Thomas, Op-Amp is short for operational amplifier. If you are not familiar with these, you’ll need to do a little homework-and a bit of math. Radio Shack has some nice little starter books. It’s not as simple as wiring a control board to a furnace. You are responsible for making sure the Op-Amp does not go into oscillation if the gain is too high or your circuit board doesn’t have the proper layout. I’m not trying to be vague. Even in a small project like this, there are many variables that conspire against success. There simply is no substitute for a solid understanding of all the components you are using. If you do get a book on Op-Amps you’ll see that a voltage monitor is quit a simple thing. Ten bucks will buy a scientific calculator to make the math a breeze. Trust me, if you get your brain around this stuff (it’s really not difficult) it will make your job much easier. Plus, you can make cool stuff that nobody else has.
    Good luck Thomas. If you can do service work, you can do this.

    Allright thats'a point in the right direction. I have a scientific calculator, I can do My Dear Aunt Sally on it, LOL. Math was my worst subject in HS, hate it. OTOH, English was my best and I love to read so I'll be able to do it I think. Especially with a calculator and the formulas in the book.

    Math. More math dangit. This really is skilled labor, huh? I used to say it really wasn't, just a technology trade.

    Thanks!

    What is the difference between the 2 part numbers you have listed? patriot Supply list both as test leads for a smart valve? Thanks

    Scott,

    The Flame Test Harness plugs in between the Smart Valve and the ignitor/sensor and allows you to test the microamp flame signal.

    The Voltage Test Harness plugs in between the Smart Valve and the power harness and allows you to easily check the 24 volt input and ouput of the Smart Valve.
