Brahma Ignition transformer T13/M 15177061

The Brahma T13/M ignition transformer (SKU 15177061) is designed for burners operating on liquid or gaseous fuels. It operates with a supply voltage of 220 V at 50 Hz, delivering a secondary voltage of 8 kV and a secondary current of 16 mA. The transformer has a duty cycle of 100%, power consumption of 145 W, and an input effective current of 0.65 A. It features a PBT body with 30% fiberglass, polyester resin insulation, and a single grounding center. The unit measures 110x96x78 mm, weighs 2 kg, and has a protection class of IP00.

When selecting a replacement ignition transformer of this type, verify that the supply voltage, frequency, secondary voltage, and secondary current match the burner's requirements. Check the mounting system and dimensions to ensure compatibility with the existing bracket. The connection insulator is typically a screw terminal unless otherwise specified; confirm the high-voltage cable connector type. The transformer can be installed in any position, but the grounding point must be securely connected to the system ground.

Common failure modes for ignition transformers include shorted or open secondary windings, insulation breakdown, and grounding issues. Symptoms may include weak or no spark at the electrodes, intermittent ignition, or burner lockout. Check the secondary voltage with a suitable probe, inspect for visible damage or burning, and verify that the grounding shield is properly connected.
