Bradford White 415-49655-00 Spark Rod
The Bradford White 415-49655-00 Spark Rod is a critical OEM ignition component designed for precise arc delivery in commercial gas water heaters and high-efficiency power vent systems. This direct-replacement pilot electrode features a high-grade Kanthal alloy electrode tip encapsulated in high-dielectric ceramic insulation to prevent current leakage and ensure consistent spark arrival at the pilot burner. Designed for electronic ignition modules, this assembly maintains the necessary air gap for reliable flame rectification and pilot flame sensing. The unit includes a pre-installed neoprene gasket to maintain a hermetic seal within the burner chamber, preventing combustion gas bypass. Contractors should verify the burner assembly alignment during installation to ensure the spark gap meets manufacturer specifications for rapid light-off and stable ionization current signals. This robust high-voltage igniter is engineered for high-cycle environments where intermittent pilot ignition reliability is paramount for system uptime.
Key Benefits:- OEM Bradford White replacement part ensures exact fit and factory-spec tolerances.
- Integrated mounting gasket streamlines installation and ensures an airtight combustion seal.
- Durable ceramic insulator resists thermal shock and high-temperature carbon tracking.
- Compatible with a wide range of Bradford White commercial units and power-vented residential models.
- Facilitates accurate flame rectification to reduce nuisance lockout codes and ignition failure.
Why is my water heater clicking but not igniting?
A cracked ceramic insulator or carbon buildup on the spark rod can cause the high-voltage arc to short to the burner chassis instead of jumping the gap to the pilot. Inspect the 415-49655-00 for hairline fractures that dissipate the ignition spark.
Is the gasket included with the 415-49655-00?
Yes, this specific kit includes the necessary replacement gasket required to maintain the pressure seal on the burner access plate, preventing atmospheric interference with the combustion mix.
How can I test the flame sensor function of this rod?
Using a multimeter set to microamps (µA), measure the flame rectification current. A clean, properly positioned rod should provide a stable signal back to the Honeywell ignition control or integrated board to confirm the presence of flame.
