Brahma Control box 18049601

The Brahma Control box 18049601 is a microprocessor-based burner manager for single-stage liquid fuel (diesel) burners. It operates in intermittent cycle mode and uses a photocell for flame detection. The device features a flame loss reaction time of less than 1 second and includes a manual reset lockout safety feature. It is designed for use with Brahma DR1 burners.

When selecting a replacement control box of this type, confirm the exact series and type designation, supply voltage, safety and pre-purge times, and flame detection method. The mounting base or plug pattern must match the existing wiring harness. Parts of this type are not interchangeable across different series, even within the same brand.

Common failure modes include lockout due to flame detection issues, such as a faulty photocell or dirty lens. Symptoms may include the burner failing to start or shutting down unexpectedly. Check the flame detector and wiring connections for faults.
