Brahma Ignition transformer TC1SVPAF 15910416

The Brahma Ignition transformer TC1SVPAF 15910416 is a compact device used in gas and liquid fuel burners for ignition. It operates on a high-frequency electronic generator with a ferritic core, increasing voltage to 15 kV. The transformer has a supply voltage of 110-120 V 50/60 Hz, secondary voltage of 15 kV, and secondary current of 20 mA. It features a duty cycle of 50%, one pole, and a net weight of 0.42 kg. The unit includes an integrated EMC filter, built-in short circuit protection, and complies with directive 2004/108/ec. It is designed for ambient temperatures up to 60 °C and operates in -10 to 60 °C.

When selecting an ignition transformer of this type, ensure the supply voltage, secondary voltage, and current ratings match the burner controller and electrode requirements. The duty cycle must be compatible with the burner's ignition sequence to avoid overheating. Mounting options include various systems, with M4x45 screws for direct attachment to compatible controllers. The high-voltage cable connection can be threaded or a Ø4 mm connector, and the ignition cable length should not exceed the specified maximum. Always verify the connector pattern and mounting dimensions before ordering.

Typical failures of ignition transformers include short circuits, open circuits, or insulation breakdown, often due to moisture or overheating. When a transformer fails, the burner may not ignite, or the flame may be unstable. Check for visible damage, measure secondary voltage with a suitable probe, and inspect the spark gap and cable connections. A faulty transformer may also cause the controller to lockout.
