Features:
- The 220 V control supervises burner flame on 50 or 60 Hz panel circuits.
- A 15-second safety-switch interval and 0.8-second flame-failure response handle separate safety events.
- SPDT alarm contacts provide a changeover path for external burner-status indication.
The RA890F architecture is panel wired, so supply, detector, interlock, and alarm circuits meet at defined control terminals.
Flame sensing may use rectification, photocell, or approved ultraviolet detection according to the burner arrangement.
Exact suffix matching prevents a unit with different voltage, timing, or contact behavior from being treated as the same control.
The Honeywell RA890F 1304 RA890F Flame Safeguard Primary Control may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
Burner-Flame Monitoring Path
- Control task: The primary control supervises the selected flame detector during the burner operating sequence.
- Detector methods: RA890F equipment can receive rectification, photocell, or ultraviolet flame-sensing signals.
- Fuel scope: The family is applied to gas, oil, and combination gas-oil burner systems.
- Wiring form: Panel wiring carries detector and control signals through point-to-point field circuits.
Startup and Flame-Loss Intervals
- Safety interval: The 1304 configuration uses a 15-second safety-switch timing.
- Loss response: An established flame failure is acted on within the documented 0.8-second response.
- Separate functions: Startup safety timing and flame-failure response are different control intervals.
- Suffix importance: Other RA890F suffixes can have different timing values, so the 1304 identity remains essential.
Supply Configuration
- Nominal supply: The exact 1304 control is listed for 220 V AC.
- Frequency: Its supply-frequency range covers both 50 and 60 Hz.
- Panel circuit: Supply and burner interlock wiring are connected through the installed control panel.
- Pre-service check: Voltage and frequency are verified at the installed control before an exchange is planned.
External Status Contact
- Contact form: The documented alarm output uses a single-pole double-throw changeover arrangement.
- Circuit choice: The external alarm circuit selects the required normally open or normally closed path.
- Status use: The contact can pass the control state to an annunciation or supervisory circuit.
- Wiring record: Existing terminal and interlock assignments are recorded before the control is disconnected.
