Allanson Transformers 2270-U Ignitor

The Allanson Transformers 2270-U OMNI Universal Electronic Oil Ignitor is a heavy-duty ignition solution specifically engineered for 12V DC power systems, making it the industry standard for mobile heating units, pressure washers, and remote oil burner applications. As a universal oil burner ignitor, this unit is designed to replace most 12VDC ignitors by mounting directly to any manufacturer’s existing mounting plate. It delivers a 17.5kV peak secondary voltage (14,000 Vac nominal) with a 20mA current, ensuring a consistent arc even in challenging environmental conditions or during system brownouts. The mid-point ground configuration and large spring contact HV terminals provide a secure, low-resistance connection for high-efficiency oil heating. With a wide operating temperature range of -30°C to 40°C and a robust air gap tolerance of 1/16" to 3/16", the 2270-U ensures reliable cold-start performance for field contractors and HVAC technicians.

Key Benefits for the Technician:

• Universal Mounting Compatibility: Fits all major OEM burner plates, reducing the need to carry multiple SKU variations on the service truck.
• Optimized 12V DC Performance: Engineered for mobile applications requiring stable electronic ignition without 120V AC availability.
• Advanced EMI/RFI Shielding: Built-in protection meets stringent noise emission standards to prevent interference with nearby electronic controls.
• Low Energy Consumption: High-efficiency design maintains low operating temperatures, extending the life of surrounding components.
• Field-Ready Hardware: Includes all necessary mounting hardware to facilitate immediate swap-outs and minimize downtime.

Common Questions:

Can the 2270-U be used on a standard residential 120V burner?
No, this is a dedicated 12V DC ignitor. Applying high-voltage AC current will cause immediate component failure. For 120V applications, use the Allanson 2275 series.

Does this unit handle fluctuating battery voltage?
Yes, the Allanson 2270-U is specifically designed to maintain a consistent spark during brownout conditions, common in 12V mobile heating systems.

Is a separate mounting plate required?
This OMNI Universal Ignitor is designed to bolt onto your existing plate, eliminating the requirement for manufacturer-specific adapters.
