Allanson Transformers 1196-S Transformer
The Allanson 1196-S Ferromagnetic Ignition Transformer is a high-performance constant duty gas ignition transformer engineered specifically for technical compatibility with Gordon Piatt burners and similar high-demand heating systems. Operating with a 240Vac supply voltage at 50Hz, this unit delivers a robust 6000Vac secondary voltage and 150VA power capacity, ensuring a stable and reliable arc for commercial and industrial applications. Built with high-temperature wire and a single porcelain design, the 1196-S runs cooler and quieter than standard alternatives. It features superior EMI and RFI protection, meeting stringent American and European noise emission standards to prevent interference with sensitive electronic controls. Whether you are performing a burner transformer replacement or upgrading a commercial gas ignition system, this ferromagnetic transformer provides the durability required for continuous operation in rigorous environments.
Key Benefits of the Allanson 1196-S- Constant Duty Rating: Engineered for continuous operation without overheating, making it ideal for large-scale industrial gas burners.
- Enhanced Safety: The single porcelain insulator design increases dielectric strength and prevents voltage leakage.
- EMI/RFI Suppression: Advanced shielding reduces electromagnetic interference, protecting modern digital burner controllers.
- OEM Compatibility: Specifically tailored to meet Gordon Piatt and other major burner manufacturer specifications for seamless installation.
- Operational Efficiency: Designed to run cooler and quieter, which extends the service life of internal components and surrounding hardware.
What is the difference between constant duty and intermittent duty ignition?
A constant duty transformer like the Allanson 1196-S is designed to provide a continuous spark for as long as the burner is powered, whereas intermittent models are only intended for short ignition cycles.
How do I know if my ignition transformer is failing?
Common signs include a weak or orange spark instead of a crisp blue arc, loud humming noises, or the burner failing to ignite (locking out) despite receiving power.
Can I use a 240V transformer on a 120V circuit?
No. The Allanson 1196-S requires a dedicated 240Vac 50Hz supply. Utilizing the incorrect voltage will result in failure of the transformer or improper ignition arc intensity.
