Brahma T11, T13, T16, T17 – Reliable Ignition Transformers for Gas and Oil Burners

Brahma T11, T13, T16, and T17 are classic high-voltage ignition transformers engineered for efficient and reliable spark generation in gas and oil burner systems. Depending on the model, they are suitable for both domestic heating appliances and industrial equipment such as hot air generators, pressure washers, or steam systems.

These transformers differ in output voltage, current, duty cycle, and number of output poles (single or double). Discover the full range of Brahma ignition transformers to find the best match for your application.

Model Overview

The series includes four main variants:

• T11 – single-pole, 9 kV, 20 mA, 33% duty cycle
• T13 – single-pole, 8 kV, 16 mA, 100% duty cycle
• T16 – dual-pole, 2×5 kV, 20 mA, 33% duty cycle
• T17 – dual-pole, 2×4 kV, 16 mA, 100% duty cycle

T11 and T16 are designed for intermittent operation, while T13 and T17 are made for continuous operation, ideal for industrial burners and commercial heating systems.
