Hello. I have a question about constant duty ignitors vs. cad cell ignitors. Carlin list both under differnt mfg #.
I know you can make an interrupted ignition constant by elliminating or bypassing the blue wire and it will run but can you put a interrupted primary control on a constant ignitor such as a carlin 41000? Does the transformer for ignition have to match the type of primary control.
Just getting educated. Thank you.James

    Yes you can

    But you don't want to put an interrupted duty t-former on a constant/intermittant control as the ignitor isn't rated to be run all the time

    Thank you. Makes perfect sense but I wanted to be sure.
