APPLICATION
The SV9520H SmartValve™ System Controls combines
gas flow control and electronic direct main burner ignition
sequencing functions into a single unit. The ignition
source is 120V hot surface igniter lighting the main
burner flame. Two types of 120V igniters may be used;
see Table 1. Provides all gas ignition safety functions by
controlling gas flow, ignition source, and a 120 Vac
combustion air blower. The control also monitors the
appliance airflow proving switch circuit and limit string to
assure proper appliance operation. The SmartValve
System Controls provide prepurge, postpurge and timed
trial for ignition with multiple ignition trials and auto reset
from lockout. Diagnostic LED indicates system status.
The control communicates directly with the ST9160
Electronic Fan Timer (EFT) in typical forced warm air
furnace applications. It will also interface with the 208907
Terminal Board, providing compatibility with power
stealing thermostats. Or, it directly interfaces with the
appropriate power supplies and a system thermostat for
additional appliance applications. When controlled
directly by a thermostat, the control does not provide a
postpurge function, as power to the control is removed
when the thermostat call for heat ends.
This system is suitable for a wide range of fan-assisted,
combustion, gas-fired appliances including furnaces,
rooftop furnaces, boilers, unit heaters, infrared heaters,
water heaters and commercial cooking appliances. The
specific application of the SmartValve System is the
responsibility of the appliance manufacturer. See Table 2
for temperature ranges and regulator types.

Questions and answers
i have an Armstrong Furnace with a sv9520h8513 smart valve and the flame signal is fluctuating from positive to negative microamps. i have replaced the flame sensor and hot surface ignitor. This is the second Smartvalve in a year. Any ideas?
Fluctuating flame signal readings in a Honeywell SmartValve SV9520H8513 on an Armstrong Furnace could be caused by:
1. Contaminated or Misplaced Flame Sense Rod – The rod may be dirty, grounded to the appliance chassis, or incorrectly positioned.
2. Poor Wiring Connections – The hot surface igniter (HSI) element and flame sense rod wiring should be in good condition and properly connected.
3. Inconsistent Gas Supply Pressure – Low or fluctuating gas pressure can cause unstable flame signals, especially when other appliances are running.
4. Improper Appliance Grounding – The furnace and power supply must be properly earth-grounded for stable flame sensing.
Checking and addressing these issues can help stabilize the flame signal readings.
