Product Description
The Omega Ducted Gas Heater Circuit Board Control PCB IHE & EHE 100MJ-4 Star is a replacement control board for certain Omega ducted gas heaters. It is designed to regulate and control the operation of the gas heater, managing the various functions required for safe and efficient heating. Here is a detailed breakdown of the product:
Key Features:
-
Control PCB (Printed Circuit Board):
- The PCB is the central control board of the gas heater system. It controls multiple functions such as ignition, flame detection, and the regulation of the gas flow to the burner.
- It also manages the fan operation, ensuring that the heated air is distributed efficiently throughout the space.
-
Compatibility:
- The Omega Ducted Gas Heater Circuit Board is specifically designed for Omega gas heaters that fall within the IHE (Intermediate Heating Efficiency) and EHE (Enhanced Heating Efficiency) series.
- It is used in the 100MJ-4 Star models, which indicates a 100 megajoule (MJ) gas heater with a 4-star efficiency rating.
- This makes it ideal for homeowners or technicians looking to replace or repair the circuit board in these specific Omega ducted gas heaters.
-
Functions and Operation:
- Ignition Control: The PCB controls the ignition process by managing the spark generator and ensuring that the gas is ignited safely.
- Gas Valve Regulation: The PCB regulates the gas valve, controlling the flow of gas to the burner, ensuring efficient and safe combustion.
- Fan Control: The fan is controlled by the PCB to ensure optimal airflow and heat distribution throughout the space.
- Flame Detection: The PCB detects the presence of a flame to confirm that the gas is burning properly. If no flame is detected, it can shut off the gas supply to prevent any safety hazards.
- Error Code Display: Some PCB models can display error codes if there is an issue with the heater, making troubleshooting easier.
-
Durability and Design:
- The PCB is designed for reliability and durability under high-temperature conditions, which are typical in ducted gas heaters. It is built to withstand the operating environment and provide consistent performance.
-
Safety Features:
- Includes built-in safety mechanisms such as flame failure detection, which automatically shuts off the gas supply if a flame is not detected, preventing dangerous situations such as gas leakage.
- Also includes over-temperature protection and other safety features to protect the system and users.
-
Replacement Part:
- This circuit board is typically used as a replacement part when the original PCB has failed or is malfunctioning. It's important to ensure compatibility with your specific model of Omega ducted gas heater before purchasing.
