Description
The Trane IGN00054USA Hot Surface Ignitor initiates combustion by heating to incandescent temperatures that ignite gas-air mixtures in burner assemblies. This silicon carbide element reaches approximately 2500F within seconds when energized, providing reliable ignition without pilot flames or spark electrodes. It mounts directly in the burner path of HVAC systems where its glowing surface ignites natural gas or propane as the gas valve opens. The silicon carbide construction and thermal shock resistance compared to earlier nitride designs. Its highly accurate resistance features provide consistent heating cycles that meet ignition timing requirements.
