Valued Connental Hearth Partners,
In response to the unprecedented global supply chain backlog and to provide our customers with product where
possible, Connental will begin oering an electronic ignion alternave on the CB36, CB42 and CX36 models
for sale in all regions. While this change does not aect the overall look or performance of the replace, it is
something you need to be aware of from a sales and service standpoint.
We want to ensure your team is aware of some dierences between the SIT electronic ignion system used
in the CB36NTRE-1, CB42NTRE and CX36NTRE and the new Dexen alternate system that we are introducing
in the CB36NTREA-1, CB42NTREA and CX36NTREA. Knowing these dierences will be key to providing clear
communicaon with your customers.
Your sales team will need to know that the EFCN/EFCP remote opon is not compable with the CB36NTREA-1,
CB42NTREA and CX36NTREA models and that an an-condensaon switch (ACS) is not available. If a remote
opon is required, the CF45/CF60 will need to be purchased. You will also need to be aware that the following
opons for these models are dierent and ask them to refer to the list below.

The Dexen control system is powered by a 3V AC adaptor/transformer and has a baery backup that uses 2 D
cell baeries. The pilot on the CB/CX Tradional models remains the same, however new to the system is an
alternate Dexen H3V gas valve. For those familiar with the original Dexen 6003 system we used previously, the
troubleshoong remains mostly the same with some minor dierences. A troubleshoong manual will be available
at the end of September. Dexen H3V wiring diagram shown below for your convenience. Please also refer to the
product installaon manual for the replacement part numbers.
Orders will be automacally switched out to the CB36NTREA-1, CB42NTREA and CX36NTREA. You will receive a
new order conrmaon as soon as completed. Should you have any quesons please contact your Connental
Account Execuve and as always thank you for your support.
