Heat Controller R68GF0005 Hot Surface Ignitor
Secure reliable ignition for your heating equipment with the Heat Controller R68GF0005 Hot Surface Ignitor. This OEM-spec furnace ignitor replacement is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of gas furnace ignition systems, providing rapid, consistent heat-up to ensure clean burner light-off. Designed for compatibility with specific Mortex furnace models, including the G18D060, G18D070, G18D077, and G18D090 series, this HVAC replacement part eliminates the inefficiencies and failures associated with aging pilot light systems. By utilizing a high-durability ceramic heating element, the R68GF0005 maintains precise ignitor resistance levels, typically measured between 40-100 ohms at room temperature, which is critical for proper communication with the integrated control board and prevents nuisance lockouts. For technicians performing emergency furnace repair, this component offers a direct-fit solution that withstands extreme thermal cycling, optimizing heat exchanger performance and overall system efficiency in both residential and commercial applications.
Key Benefits- OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed for Mortex furnace models G18D060, G18D070, G18D077, and G18D090.
- High-Speed Ignition: Rapidly reaches temperatures exceeding 1,000?F to ensure immediate burner combustion and minimize gas wastage.
- Durable Ceramic Construction: Engineered to resist oxidation and withstand the high-temperature environment of the combustion chamber.
- Simplified Installation: Features a standard plug-and-play design for fast field replacement during service calls.
- How do I know if my hot surface ignitor is failing? If the furnace inducer motor runs but you do not see a bright orange glow near the burners, or if the ceramic element shows visible hairline cracks or white deposits, the ignitor likely needs replacement.
- Can I touch the ignitor element during installation? No. Always handle the unit by its ceramic base. Skin oils transferred to the element create "hot spots" that cause premature failure when energized.
- How do I test the R68GF0005 with a multimeter? Set your multimeter to the Ohms (?) setting and measure across the leads. A functional ignitor should show continuity with resistance usually between 40 and 100 ohms; an "OL" reading indicates a broken internal circuit.
