12. Outdoor Fire Effects Electronic Ignition Fire Pits: Started manufacturing ~ 6 years ago. All come fully assembled, tested, & ready to drop- in. Also come with Template, Vinyl Cover, DVD, & Remote or Wall Switch. Has grown incredibly over the past 2 years. Std. pits range in size from 13” ~ 43”, 90K ~ 300k Btu Use Hot Surface Ignition.

13. Outdoor Fire Effects Fire Pit- Major Components: Fire Ring: Use only Stainless Steel ring in Fire Pits. Sizes- Round 12”, 18”, 24”, 30” & 36” Square & Rectangle- All 3 sizes Pan: 4 Types Bowl: 13” ~ 43” Flat Round 18”~42” Flat Square Flat Rectangle Pilot Assembly: Honeywell Hot Surface Valve Box: Stainless Steel construction, water resistant.

14. Outdoor Fire Effects Fire Pit- Major Components: (cont’d) – Valve Box- Internal components: Control Valve / Module: Use 150k or 300k valve. Transformer: 24v w/ 40 VA power rating. 175º Snap Switch: In-line with 24v power to valve.

15. Outdoor Fire Effects Component Purpose: Control Valve: Used to control gas to pilot; Also gas to main burner via signal from remote location- primarily remote control or wall switch. Control Module (in valve): Provide ignition sequence, flame monitoring, and safety shutoff for fire pit. Transformer: Steps down 115 VAC to 24v to power control valve and module. Pilot Assembly: System uses Hot Surface Ignition (HSI) method. There is no standing pilot- turns off when main burner turns off.

16. Outdoor Fire Effects Why New Hot Surface Ignition system? 1) Ignition- Use silicone nitride element- no spark loss due to moisture or poor connections. 2) Improved stability of flame rectification current due to grounding fork. 3) Continuous re-light (never locks out) 4) Wires integrated into head of igniter. 5) Module integrated into valve- less wiring. 6) Improved production efficiency to offset SS cost.

17. Outdoor Fire Effects Fire Pit- Operation Sequence: 1) Gas and power are turned on at remote location. 2) Unit On: Remote control or wall switch signals control module to cycle unit “on”. 3) Pilot Lights: HSI element glows, pilot gas valve opens. Note: 90 second total cycle; element will turn off after 30s, then back on the last 30s of cycle) 4) Pilot Flame sensed- HSI element “off”. Uses flame rectification- pilot flame creates path for 1.5 micro A to return to module;

18. Outdoor Fire Effects Fire Pit- Operation Sequence: (cont’d) 5) Burner lights: Main valve opens. 6) Unit Off: Main valve stays open until remote signals control module to turn “off”. Note: If pilot flame is lost, main valve is closed- then back to step 2.
