ACV Ionisation electrode 53437009

The ACV Ionisation electrode 53437009 is an OEM certified flame-proving component for gas burners. It is designed for use in the Kompakt series and fits ACV HM100 bg and ACV Kompakt HR 18 models. This electrode detects the rectified current in the flame to confirm combustion, and is resistant to soot. It is a consumable part that operates directly in the flame zone.

Parts of this type are selected by the length and bend of the electrode rod, the diameter and material of the insulator, the mounting flange configuration, and the specific burner series for which they were shaped. Before ordering, verify that the tip is clean, the gap matches the burner-manufacturer specification, and the ceramic is free of hairline cracks. Always cross-reference the original part number against the burner's manual.

Common failures include a drifted spark gap or a cracked ceramic insulator, which can cause intermittent flame loss or delayed ignition. The equipment may lock out and close the gas valve if the flame signal is absent within the safety time. Check the electrode for sooting, thermal erosion, and cracks, and ensure the lead is sound and routed away from high-voltage ignition cables.
