Description
The Allanson 421-340 is an OEM-grade ferromagnetic ignition transformer built to deliver reliable high-voltage spark energy for Armstrong/ESSO oil burner systems and other HVAC combustion applications. It accepts a 120 VAC primary input and steps up to 10,000 VAC secondary output at ~23 mA (~250 VA), providing consistent ignition performance under constant duty. Designed with high-temperature internal wiring and a midpoint-grounded double-pole core, this transformer runs cool and quiet while meeting American and European noise emission (EMI/RFI) standards for compliant operation. It’s engineered to OEM specifications for long service life and safe, dependable ignition in residential, commercial, and industrial burner systems.
