The Ideal 180653 Electrode Detection is a factory‑specified flame detection device used in compatible Ideal boiler models to verify that the burner has successfully ignited and is maintaining a stable flame. This electrode works by sensing a very small electrical signal produced when a flame is present; that signal is sent back to the boiler’s control board so it can confirm proper combustion. Accurate flame detection is critical for safety, because if the control board cannot confirm a flame exists, it will shut down the gas supply to prevent unburnt gas from accumulating.
Constructed with heat‑resistant ceramics and robust metallic elements, the detection electrode is designed to withstand the high‑temperature environment inside the combustion chamber. Over time, electrodes can become worn, coated with combustion residue, or misaligned due to thermal cycling and vibration. If this happens, symptoms can include ignition failure, intermittent flame detection errors, repeated boiler lockouts, or specific diagnostic fault codes relating to flame sensing.
Replacing a faulty or degraded electrode with the genuine Ideal 180653 Electrode Detection restores consistent flame sensing accuracy, supports safer operation, and contributes to dependable and efficient boiler performance. This part should be installed by someone qualified, ensuring the correct positioning and electrical connection for reliable signal feedback to the control system.

We partner with several of the best UK carriers (such as TNT, Royal Mail, DPD etc) depending on the type of product and the warehouse it is coming from, and also with some pallet companies for larger items. All of these operate during normal Monday – Friday working hours, and we expect all deliveries to arrive in 5 days. For more details checkout this page.
For all Gledhill Cylinders, a flat delivery charge of £33.00 (ex-VAT) applies, regardless of order value or delivery method. This will be added automatically at checkout.
Having to return a product because it doesn’t fit, or is not what you wanted, is really annoying! To try and make sure this isn’t necessary we have lots of helpful advice on our site, and you should feel free to call our experts on the number above to check if you are in any doubt at all – we’re always happy to help.
But if you do, don’t worry, just contact us and we’ll get it sorted (note that for trade customers there may be a restocking fee). If you need it, we can usually arrange the carrier to pick it up.
