Hi,
Hoping someone has an idea of how to fix my pool heater. I have a Raypak P-R406A-EN-C Pool Heater that wont stay lit. I turn the unit on, the pilot lights, the main burner lights and runs for a short time, then goes out. The pilot then tries to light but doesn't. Just clicks over and over.
Units faults are the following that alternate over and over
High Limit 2 Fault
No Pilot Sensed
I recently replaced the heat exchanger and then began having problems with the unit. It was turning off and on the same as it is now however with large explosions. I replaced the circuit board and pilot light thinking that might take care of it. It stopped the explosions but not the failure to stay lit. I broke down and had a local technician out to work on the unit and he thought the gas valve might be faulty and replaced it. He also said the pressure on both sides of the gas valve was low, likely due to the 3/4" supply line. I have been running this size of unit on this pool for 10 years and have never had these problems so while it appears that the gas pressure isn't what is called for, i'm skeptical that it is the problem. This particular unit is 3 years old. I am also getting banging in the unit when heating. One would assume this would be from scaling however I just cleaned it all out when I replaced the heat exchanger. Thanks for any help you can offer.
