Pitco 60130901 Pilot Burner/Ignitor Assembly - Commercial Equipment Replacement

OEM Part Details

• Manufacturer: Pitco
• OEM Number: 60130901
• OEM Status: VERIFIED
• MPN: 60130901
• SKU: 60130901
• Part Type: Pilot Burner/Ignitor Assembly

Product Overview

Pitco 60130901 is a pilot burner/ignitor assembly used in the ignition and gas train area of commercial fryer equipment. This OEM-identified component brings the pilot burner and ignitor functions together in one assembly, making correct part-number identification especially important when servicing equipment that depends on a reliable ignition sequence. A properly selected assembly helps a technician restore the original component arrangement rather than adapting a similar-looking ignition part with different mounting, connection, or orientation details. In commercial kitchen service, ignition-related components deserve close attention because they work alongside the fryer gas control system. Damage, wear, loose connections, contamination, or an incorrect replacement component can complicate diagnosis and delay return to service. Pitco part number 60130901 gives buyers a specific manufacturer part number to compare against the removed assembly and the equipment data plate before ordering. This part is intended for commercial equipment service where the original Pitco 60130901 pilot burner/ignitor assembly has been identified. Review the original component, mounting arrangement, and connected wiring or gas-side connections carefully. Confirming those details before purchase helps reduce wrong-part orders and supports a more orderly repair process.

Product Function

The Pitco 60130901 pilot burner/ignitor assembly supports the ignition process within a commercial fryer ignition and gas train application. Its pilot burner portion is associated with the pilot flame area, while the ignitor portion is associated with initiating ignition. Together, these functions support the equipment’s normal burner-lighting sequence when the surrounding gas controls, electrical connections, and safety-related components are operating correctly. Because this is an assembly rather than a general hardware item, it should be selected by the verified manufacturer part number and compared with the original component. The assembly’s physical arrangement, mounting points, connected lead arrangement, and gas-side connection details can all matter during service.

Why Choose a Genuine OEM Replacement?

Pitco OEM part number 60130901 provides a reliable identification point for this pilot burner/ignitor assembly. Matching the manufacturer part number to the original component helps avoid ordering an ignition part that appears similar but differs in its assembly layout or service connection details. Using the verified OEM number also gives technicians and purchasing teams a clearer reference when reviewing equipment records, parts documentation, and the removed component before installation.

How This Part Works

A pilot burner/ignitor assembly takes part in the fryer’s ignition sequence. The ignitor portion is positioned to support ignition at the pilot burner area, and the pilot burner portion is part of the gas-side arrangement associated with establishing pilot operation. The exact sequence depends on the equipment configuration and the condition of related controls and connections, so the assembly should not be treated as the only possible cause of an ignition concern. For dependable operation, the assembly must remain correctly positioned and connected within the original equipment arrangement. Its mounting, ignition connection, pilot gas connection, surrounding burner components, and related control circuit should be evaluated as appropriate by qualified commercial gas equipment personnel. Replacing a visibly damaged or incorrectly identified assembly without reviewing related components may leave the underlying service issue unresolved.

Technician Service Tip

Before removing the original assembly, document its mounting position, lead routing, and connection orientation. Compare the removed component directly with Pitco 60130901, then inspect nearby mounting hardware and connected ignition or gas-side components for damage, looseness, or contamination. Commercial gas equipment service should be performed by qualified personnel.

Common Failure Symptoms

• Failure of the fryer ignition sequence may indicate that the pilot burner/ignitor assembly and related components should be inspected.
• An intermittent ignition condition can indicate a need to evaluate the ignitor connection, assembly position, and surrounding controls.
• Visible damage to the pilot burner or ignitor portion should be inspected before returning equipment to service.
• A loose, damaged, or poorly routed ignition lead may indicate a connection issue near the assembly.
• Signs of contamination around the pilot burner area can indicate that the assembly and nearby gas-side components need evaluation.
• An assembly that does not match the original mounting arrangement should be inspected for incorrect part selection.
• Repeated burner-lighting concerns may indicate that the pilot burner/ignitor assembly and related gas control components require diagnosis.
• Corrosion, bent mounting areas, or damaged connection points can indicate that replacement of the assembly may be needed.
• A pilot-related concern after other ignition components have been evaluated may indicate that this assembly should be considered during diagnosis.

Commercial Applications

Pitco 60130901 is identified for commercial fryer ignition and gas train service. It is suited to commercial kitchen repair work where the original pilot burner/ignitor assembly carries the same Pitco manufacturer part number. Typical buyers include restaurant maintenance teams, foodservice equipment service companies, institutional kitchen personnel, and technicians responsible for commercial cooking equipment. Application should be confirmed against the equipment data plate, service documentation, and the removed component before ordering. Although this assembly is associated with fryer ignition and gas train service, equipment-specific fitment has not been provided here. A matching OEM number is the primary identification reference, followed by a careful comparison of the original assembly’s connections, mounting arrangement, and orientation.

Before You Order

• Match Pitco OEM part number 60130901 to the original component and applicable equipment documentation.
• Confirm the manufacturer is Pitco and compare the equipment data plate details before purchase.
• Compare the removed pilot burner/ignitor assembly with the product image and product title.
• Review the original assembly’s mounting points and overall orientation.
• Confirm the location and arrangement of the ignition lead or connector on the original component.
• Inspect the pilot gas-side connection arrangement before selecting a replacement.
• Check for damage, corrosion, bent brackets, or missing mounting hardware that may affect installation.
• Verify the equipment model and serial number against available service documentation.
• Have qualified commercial gas equipment personnel evaluate related ignition and gas control components when a service concern is present.

Related Components

• Mounting hardware: Inspect screws, brackets, and retaining hardware because secure positioning can affect how the assembly sits in the original equipment arrangement.
• Ignition lead or connector: Inspect the connected ignition lead and connection point for damage, looseness, or routing concerns before replacing the assembly.
• Pilot gas-side connection: Inspect the connection serving the pilot burner area for condition and proper attachment as appropriate during qualified service.
• Related gas control components: Evaluate the surrounding gas control components when an ignition concern continues after the assembly has been inspected.
• Burner-area components: Inspect nearby burner-area components for contamination, damage, or alignment concerns that may contribute to an ignition-related service issue.
