Configuració i instal·lació

Installation of the ignition transformer should only be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or electrician. Incorrect installation can lead to equipment damage, fire, or serious injury.

  1. Desconnexió d'alimentació: Before starting, ensure all electrical power to the oil burner and heating system is completely disconnected at the main service panel. Verify with a voltage provador.
  2. Access Old Transformer: Locate the existing ignition transformer on your Becket A, AF, or AFG burner. Note its mounting position and wiring connections.
  3. Desconnecteu el cablejat: Carefully disconnect the primary (low voltage) and secondary (high voltage) wiring from the old transformer. Label wires if necessary to ensure correct reconnection.
  4. Remove Old Transformer: Unmount the old transformer from its bracket or housing.
  5. Mount New Transformer: Mount the new Allanson 2721-628G transformer in the same location and orientation as the old one. Ensure it is securely fastened.
  6. Connecteu el cablejat:
    • Connect the primary (120V) input wires to the designated terminals on the new transformer. Refer to the burner's wiring diagram for specific connections.
    • Connect the secondary (high voltage) output wires to the electrodes of the oil burner. Ensure a secure and proper connection to the spark gap.
  7. Verifica les connexions: Double-check all wiring connections for tightness and correctness according to the burner's specifications. Ensure no wires are pinched or exposed.
  8. Restaura l'alimentació i prova: Once all connections are secure and verified, restore power to the burner. Initiate a call for heat and observe the ignition sequence. The transformer should produce a strong, consistent spark.

Principi de funcionament

The Allanson Ignition Transformer operates by stepping up the incoming 120V AC line voltage to a high voltage (10,000V) at a low current (23mA). This high voltage is then applied across the burner electrodes, creating an electrical arc (spark) that ignites the atomized fuel oil. The transformer is designed for intermittent duty, meaning it only operates during the ignition cycle of the burner, typically for a few seconds until stable combustion is established.

Manteniment

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and reliable operation of your ignition transformer. All maintenance should be performed by a qualified technician with power disconnected.

Resolució de problemes

If your oil burner is experiencing ignition issues, the ignition transformer may be a contributing factor. Always ensure power is disconnected before inspecting components.
