Ideal Thermostat Capillary Clamp 098183

The Ideal 098183 is a thermostat capillary clamp used on Ideal Commercial boilers. It secures the capillary tube of the thermostat sensor so the sensing element stays in firm, consistent contact with the point it is monitoring, which keeps the temperature reading stable and the boiler's control response accurate. The clamp is listed under Ideal's brackets and clamps group and is shared across the Concord CX commercial range.

• The capillary tube is loose and can move or vibrate against the boiler casing
• Thermostat readings drift, or the boiler short-cycles because the sensor is not held correctly
• The clamp is cracked, corroded or has been lost during previous service work
• The capillary tube is chafed or kinked where it passes through the clamp
• Overheat or lockout faults traced back to poor contact between the sensor and its mounting point

• Check the GC number on the appliance data badge against the list above before ordering
• Confirm the model and series, as Concord CX140 and CX170 variants are covered by different assemblies
• Cross-reference the alternative number 1175243 when working from older documentation or parts lists
