What it is

The Ideal 077389 is a distributor tube for the Concord CXi 160 range of commercial appliances. It sits inside the heat exchanger assembly and carries water into the tube nest so heat is spread evenly across the surface rather than concentrated at the inlet. Ideal lists this component against the CXi 160 series and its CXDI and CXSI variants.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Uneven or reduced heat output across the appliance
  • Repeated high-limit trips or overheating during demand
  • Visible scale, corrosion or pitting on the tube surface
  • Water weeping from the heat exchanger area
  • Kettling or knocking noises from the heat exchanger

Before you order

  • Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list before ordering.
  • Check the number stamped or printed on the existing component; 1174518 is also used to identify this item.
  • Inspect the seals and gaskets at the heat exchanger joint and renew them if they are disturbed during the repair.
