Ignition Control Modules feature MPU-based design.

Capable Controls, Inc. Introduces Their Series 5X Microprocessor-Based Intelligent Direct Spark or Intermittent Pilot Ignition Control Module

Capable Controls, Inc. introduces their Series 5X microprocessor based intelligent direct spark or intermittent pilot ignition control modules, designed for OEM and replacement applications.


The 5X series Ignition control module is designed for commercial, residential and industrial systems. This control provides standard wiring and configuration allowing simplified installation and replacement. The internal circuitry monitors system gas valve, wiring and igniter while automatically shutting down the system in the event of a failed or shorted circuit.

The 5X Series has been approved by CSA for US and Canada usage. The microprocessor based design provides software control of all of the thousands of timing options, igniter control, gas valve operation, flame sensing along with safety shutoff/lockout operation and a diagnostic LED.

Other options include: Quick Start, Flame Stabilization, Re-ignition, Spark Restoration, Independent alarm outputs: 5vdc- 24Vac/dc- 120Vac/dc, Combustion Blower Output, Rollout Switch, Universal Model with field selectable DIP switch, along with thousands of various timing combinations.

The 5X has proprietary designed ODL "Optical Data Link" which allows programs to be downloaded wirelessly per custom OEM specifications. This allows Capable to stock base units and install the various custom OEM programs within seconds.

Boston Dynamics Webinar - Why Humanoids Are the Future of Manufacturing

Boston Dynamics Webinar - Why Humanoids Are the Future of Manufacturing

Join us November 18th for this Webinar as we reflect on what we've learned by observing factory floors, and why we've grown convinced that chasing generalization in manipulation—both in hardware and behavior—isn't just interesting, but necessary. We'll discuss AI research threads we're exploring at Boston Dynamics to push this mission forward, and highlight opportunities our field should collectively invest more in to turn the humanoid vision, and the reinvention of manufacturing, into a practical, economically viable product.
