Will this replace R7184A

Answer This Question

The 7284 replaced the 7184. Both are adjustable. Therefore, if you know how your older version was configured the new version could be configured to act the same way.

    Answer This Question

    Yes it will. The newer version being offered by The Home Depot has the additional option of TT contacts which a contractor may choose to use in certain installations. As the version you are replacing does not have this feature the contractor will most likely leave them unused.

      Answer This Question

      Both this and the model you reference are universal oil burner primary controls. Hence the U in the model number. So to that extent they are the same and one can be used in replacement of the other. But it is not as simple as just swapping them out. Because they are universal controls they need to be configured to operate correctly for the specific application. To do this you would need an understanding of the logic utilized in the appliances ignition logic. Based on this you would set the parameters of the control.

        Answer This Question

        As this is a universal control in the vast majority of cases it can. However, to do it properly requires an understanding of the logic built into the oil appliances cascade of burner operations. The industry does not use a standardized system of wiring color codes so it is not as easy as just matching up wires. It requires a knowledge of what is going on. I also want to mention and I mean know insult if you are familiar with burners, that many times when the button pops customers assume that the control has gone bad and needs to be replaced. Often it is not, and in fact it is doing its job. This devise is called often referred to as a Cad Cell relay. The cad cell is a light detecting bulb. If it senses a bad or dirty flame it shuts the system down to prevent the serious consequences that come from a bad flame. So you may want to confirm that the appliance does not need a cleaning or service.

          Answer This Question

          Yes, it is a universal replacement for any cad cell equipped older intermittent ignition controller. Upon initial setup make sure you select NO for the 'TT' connection

            This universal Resideo oil burner primary control could be used to replace most residential oil burner primary controls; the ICM control you mention included. A qualified oil tech would have no problem with that. However it is not a simple task for the untrained. Going to this control would require having a working knowledge of the appliances control strategy so that you could program the control to respond properly. As well as a working knowledge of the systems wiring logic as the wire colors are not universal.

                  I just installed one of these to replace my Honeywell R8184G 4009, which it will replace and it works great. Was also cheaper than the simple electro-mechanical old one. Its universal so it will work with any cad cell setup. My only complaint was the directions that didnt give clear instructions for my particular setup. One noteworthy thing is that the limit connection must be connected to Line 1 on a direct thermostat setup like mine. The only other issue I had was that in the installer setup the setting for using "TT" seems to be reversed, no means yes and yes means no, so basically if you enable using the TT terminals it will run forever until it triggers thermal protection, but if you dont it works fine and listens to the thermostat. Someone should fix that or clarify it in the manual, the definitions of some of the settings are pretty lacking. A simple, this does this, and that does that, this connection is for this.... that type of thing would be great for more amateur installers and would probably help more than a few professionals. Besides the manual, its good! My furnace is up and running again and now I've got a neat real time OHM meter for my CAD sensor, this will enable me to monitor sensor degradation over time.

                    Have been replacing about once a year. Works great - until it doesnt anymore. I would recommend using in emergency only and get your manufacturer's replacement

                    The cross reference that the showed online did not match the ones on box. Very little information to go on as far as replacing old red popup/push button unit. If anyone needs helo using on an oil fired forced air unit, I figure the wiring out.
