Wayne 23101-HS Transformer

Maintain consistent ignition performance on residential and commercial oil burners with the Wayne 23101-HS Burner Ignition Transformer. This heavy-duty recovery unit is engineered with a 120V primary input and a high-voltage 10,000V secondary output, delivering the necessary 250VA power capacity to generate a sustained electrical arc for reliable fuel atomization. Specifically optimized for the Wayne HS Blue Angel Series and Model FH oil burners (4-13 gph), this transformer ensures stable combustion even in demanding industrial environments. The 23mA secondary current provides the high-intensity spark required to overcome cold starts and high-static pressure conditions. Built to withstand the rigors of high ambient temperatures, the Wayne 23101-HS features a robust internal shielding design to eliminate radio and TV interference while protecting internal windings from moisture and thermal breakdown. This OEM Wayne Combustion transformer is a critical component for technicians looking to restore factory-spec ignition timing and efficiency to HVAC oil burner systems.

• High-Voltage Precision: Delivers a consistent 10,000V secondary output to ensure a strong, reliable arc for 4-13 gph burner applications.
• Broad Compatibility: Direct-fit replacement for Wayne HS Blue Angel Series and FH model oil burners.
• Durable Construction: Engineered to resist tar leakage and insulation failure caused by radiant heat or high-humidity environments.
• Noise Reduction: Integrated internal shielding prevents electronic interference with nearby communication equipment.
• Optimized Ignition: The 250VA power rating supports the secondary voltage requirements needed for efficient fuel ignition and clean combustion cycles.

Can I use the Wayne 23101-HS to replace an older 20358 or 23101-E model?
While they share similar primary and secondary voltages, always verify mounting base configurations. The 23101-HS is specifically designed for the HS and FH series; check the hinge or plate mount against your existing burner housing to ensure a secure fit.

What causes an ignition transformer to "smoke" or leak tar?
Internal failures are often caused by excessive radiant heat or a wide electrode gap (exceeding 1/8" - 5/32"). This increases high-voltage stress on the secondary coil, leading to insulation breakdown and thermal melting of the internal potting compound.

How do I verify if my current transformer is weak?
Using a high-voltage probe, technicians should measure the secondary output. If the reading falls below 9,000V with a steady 120V input, the transformer is likely nearing end-of-life and requires replacement to prevent ignition delay.
