The
model #5049 12V DC Igniter was developed over several years and has become one of
our flagship products. We are proud of the fact that the
model #5049 igniter is manufactured in the USA.
Custom
Coils builds DC ignitors for several different industries
and applications.
Our ignitors can be found in:
Heated
pressure washers
Steam
cleaning applications
DC
HVAC industries.
Tar Buggies
Custom
Coils sell several different variations of DC ignitors
and we have the ability to custom design ignitors to meet
the specific needs of customers that have applications
that require special design requirements.

The
#5049 12V DC Igniter is constructed using components and techniques that allow the 12V ignitor
to function in harsh environments (-20C to 60C).
The
igniter consists of both a primary and a secondary
winding. Both windings are constructed using high dielectric
tapes and 155C magnet wire. The windings are located within
the part such that they are isolated from each other.
The combination of these 2 design elements keeps the 12V
DC igniter from breaking down during operation. The rest
of the components are selected such that they have enough
head-room to absorb many of the irregularities that comes
from different ignition systems from different manufacturers
of small engines.
The
key components used in the 12V igniter have
been selected because their specifications allow them
to be used in elevated operating temperature environments.
The entire design and layout maximizes heat dissipation
and keeps the DC igniter running as cool as possible.
The entire part is then placed in a molded shell and encapsulated
in a two part, class F black epoxy resin. The encapsulating
epoxy is tough, flexible and resists thermal shock. Once
fully cured the epoxy is flame retardant and has a high
dielectric strength. This allows the 12V DC Igniter to
operate in extreme environments.
The
Custom Coils Ignitor has been designed such that it REQUIRES
air flow over the heat sink of the ignitor. It is imperative
in all applications that there is a good amount of airflow
across the heatsink.

The
Custom Coil Igniter, Model #5049 is a 12V
DC igniter mainly used to light oil burners. Oil burners
require a very high voltage spark to initiate a burn cycle.
The Custom Coils igniter takes 12V DC from a standard
small engine ignition system and converts this 12V DC
to a 20KV+ spark. This 20KV+ voltage jumps the spark gap
while resting in the combustion chamber of the oil burner.
The high voltage spark initiates the combustion of the
oil in the burner.
This
portable burning solution, a small engine, a burner and
an ignitor is used to heat water for many applications.
In any industry that requires portable hot water, usually
a 12V DC ignitor can be found. In the heated pressure
washer industry and the heated steam cleaning industry
is where the Custom Coils 12V DC ignitor really shines.
In these industries equipment portability is a requirement
and many units contain an oil burner and a Custom Coils
12V DC ignitor to generate the hot water required in these
industries. Another newer industry of portable hot water
heaters for showers and personal hygiene has also popped
up and is using 12V Ignitors. All these various industries
are being serviced by several name brand oil burner manufacturers;
Custom Coils 12V DC Ignitors fits on many of these brands
of oil burners.
Most
industries that these portable devices go into are harsh
environments. These pieces of equipment are subjected
to high moisture and high temperature environments. Many
are cleaning facilities where harsh chemicals, oils and
corrosive fluids are used. That is why the Custom Coils
12V DC Ignitor has been designed to work in harsh environments
from -20C to 60C. The internal components of the ignitor
are protected by a shell made of Rynite and are completely
encapsulated in a high temperature, non-flammable 2-part
epoxy. The Custom Coil ignitor, model # 5049 is a rugged
ignitor that is versatile and can be used in many different
applications.
