Loading…Igniters
Igniters for Kepo MC and AC pellet boilers are used to ignite the pellets reliably during the start-up process. A correctly functioning pellet igniter is important for stable start-up, proper combustion and safe boiler operation.
When replacing an igniter, always check the exact Kepo model, output, version, part number, connection, length, mounting position and power rating of the igniter. This helps prevent incorrect installation and unnecessary start-up issues after maintenance or repair.

Kepo MC and AC igniters for pellet boilers
Igniters for the Kepo MC and AC Series start the combustion process in the pellet boiler. During the start-up phase, the igniter heats the supplied pellets so the boiler can ignite automatically and then switch to normal combustion operation.
The correct igniter selection depends on the Kepo model, boiler output, series, part number, electrical connection, length, mounting position and technical version. Always check the original component before replacing a pellet igniter.
Important checks for Kepo igniters
- Check whether the igniter is suitable for the correct Kepo MC or AC series.
- Compare part number, power rating, voltage, length, diameter, connection and mounting position with the original component.
- Look for visible damage, discoloration, breakage, contamination, loose connections or overheating.
- Check start-up behaviour, ignition time, fault codes and control from the PCB.
- Also assess connected components such as pellet feed, burner pot, fan, flue gas path, wiring and sensors.
Application, replacement and technical points of attention
A Kepo igniter is often replaced when the pellet boiler does not ignite, ignites slowly, needs several start attempts, reports an ignition fault or when the igniter has an electrical interruption. Start-up issues can also be caused by contamination, poor pellet feed, insufficient airflow or incorrect control signals.
Diagnosis and installation of electrical parts should be carried out by a qualified technician. After replacement, the connection, insulation, mounting position, start-up phase, fan operation, pellet feed, burner pot and flue gas extraction must be checked carefully to ensure reliable ignition.
Frequently asked questions about Kepo MC and AC igniters
What is a Kepo igniter used for?
A Kepo igniter is used to automatically ignite the pellets during the start-up phase of the pellet boiler. This part is important for reliable and safe boiler start-up.
When should a pellet igniter be replaced?
Replacement is usually required when the boiler does not ignite correctly, displays fault codes, needs multiple start attempts or when the igniter is electrically defective.
Does every igniter fit every Kepo MC or AC pellet boiler?
No, the correct igniter depends on model, output, version, part number, voltage, connection, length and mounting position. Always compare it with the original component.
Can an ignition fault also be caused by another part?
Yes, an ignition issue can also be caused by contamination in the burner pot, poor pellet feed, insufficient airflow, a faulty sensor, wiring or a PCB control problem.
Can users install a Kepo igniter themselves?
Because this is an electrical component inside a pellet boiler, installation by a qualified technician is important for safety, correct connection and reliable operation.
