Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100006169 Electrode
The Lochinvar and A.O. Smith 100006169 Electrode is the direct performance-grade replacement for the legacy 024221-000 electrode. Designed for precision gas water heater ignition, this component ensures reliable flame sensing and spark delivery in high-demand commercial and residential systems. As a veteran-preferred HVAC replacement part, it features an upgraded ceramic insulator and high-alloy conductor to withstand the thermal stress of constant cycling within the combustion chamber. When diagnosing a locked-out burner or inconsistent flame signals, replacing the OEM flame sensor is a standard preventative measure to restore water heater heating efficiency. This electrode assembly is engineered for a exact-fit installation, maintaining the necessary gap for optimal dielectric strength. For technicians managing Lochinvar boiler maintenance or A.O. Smith service calls, transitioning to the 100006169 ignition electrode ensures long-term operational stability and compatibility with existing flame rectification circuits without requiring field modifications to the mounting bracket.
Key Benefits:- Direct OEM Replacement: Seamlessly replaces the discontinued 024221-000 without the need for adapter kits.
- Enhanced Thermal Resistance: Durable ceramic housing prevents voltage leakage in high-temperature environments.
- Consistent Flame Sensing: Optimized for precise flame rectification, reducing nuisance water heater ignition failure codes.
- Standardized Fitment: Compatible with a wide range of Lochinvar and A.O. Smith commercial gas-fired units.
Is the 100006169 compatible with units using the 024221-000?
Yes, the 100006169 is the officially designated updated version of the 024221-000, maintaining original specifications for mounting and terminal connection.
What causes this electrode to fail in high-use systems?
Failure is typically caused by carbon fouling or micro-cracks in the ceramic insulator, which disrupts the spark gap or the flame sensor signal to the control board.
Can I clean the electrode instead of replacing it?
While light cleaning of the probe can temporarily restore current, any degradation of the ceramic or oxidation of the tip requires a full replacement to ensure system reliability.
