Ideal Sensing Tube Silicone 176307

The Ideal 176307 is a silicone sensing tube supplied for Ideal Commercial appliances. It is a flexible tube that carries a pressure signal from one point in the appliance to the sensing device that monitors it, so the controls can read the condition of the flue or air circuit accurately. It is listed by the supplier under the Pipes & Hoses spare part category.

• The tube has hardened, split, cracked or become brittle with heat and age.
• A kink or blockage in the tube stops the pressure signal reaching the sensing device.
• The appliance locks out intermittently or reports an air pressure or flue-related fault.
• The pressure switch or sensing device does not operate when it should, or operates when it should not.
• A visible leak, loose fit or perished end at either connection point.

• Confirm your appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list, as Ideal Commercial covers a range of units.
• Check the tube currently fitted to your appliance and match the routing and connection points before removal.
• The alternative number 1180407 may appear on older Ideal documentation for the same item.
• Inspect the connection points and any seals while the appliance is open, and replace them if they show signs of wear.
