The Danfoss EBI Series Electronic Ignition Units are advanced solid-state ignition devices engineered to deliver reliable burner ignition while maintaining compact dimensions and low energy consumption.
Designed for use in oil and gas burners, the EBI Series generates a powerful high-voltage spark using high-frequency electronic technology. The units are available in multiple configurations to suit different burner designs and ignition requirements.
The EBI model is designed for standard two-pole ignition systems, the EBI M version features a secondary midpoint connected to earth/frame, while the EBI 1P model provides single-pole ignition between one electrode and the burner frame.
With 230V operation and optional 120V versions available, the EBI Series offers flexible installation options and reliable ignition performance for a wide range of combustion applications.

Technical Description
The Danfoss EBI Series converts the incoming supply voltage into a high-frequency ignition output operating at approximately 20 kHz. This technology generates a stable ignition spark while reducing size and improving efficiency compared to conventional ignition transformers.
The standard EBI version delivers 15 kV output, the EBI M version provides 2 × 7.5 kV output, and the EBI 1P version provides 11 kV output for single-electrode ignition systems.
The units operate within a voltage range of 187–255 V and are designed for burner applications requiring dependable ignition performance and compact installation.
