Using It on the Job

1. Always begin by isolating power and gas supply to the heater. Follow appropriate lockout/tagout procedures.
2. Locate the existing ignition electrode within the pilot assembly. Document its position and wiring connections if unsure.
3. Carefully disconnect the high-tension lead from the electrode and unmount the old unit.
4. Install the new SIT ST0915024 electrode, ensuring it is correctly seated and positioned relative to the pilot flame.
5. Reconnect the high-tension lead securely, checking for any frayed wires or damaged insulation.
6. Once assembly is complete, restore gas and power, then initiate the heater to verify proper ignition and operation.

Limitations & Safety Notes

• Work on gas appliances must only be performed by a currently licensed gas fitter in Australia.
• Always ensure power and gas supplies are isolated and verified before commencing any work.
• Confirm this electrode's part number (ST0915024 / 0915024) matches your specific heater model and pilot type.
• Not suitable for heaters that do not use a Catoba 3-way Pilot or the specified Braemar/Vulcan models.

Tradie Pro Tip: Before ordering, grab a good look at your existing pilot assembly. Sometimes, what looks like a standard straight electrode can have slight variations in length or connection that'll stop a heater from firing up reliably when you need it most.

Pair With

Consider pairing this electrode with an ignition module, a multi-meter for electrical checks, and quality thread sealant for gas connections when servicing your heater.
