The ESI ignition system provides rapid, reliable ignition and more importantly, instantaneous re-ignition if the pilot should ever lose its flame. This ignition system uses a fuel gas line much like other ignition systems, however, instead of a flame front generator it utilizes the “Excitor” which produces a high voltage spark directly in the pilot nozzle. This cutting edge innovation originated in the aerospace industry.
The Model 255 pilot is a combination of our Model 245 pilot and Model 250 Energex pilot. The Model 255 pilot can be ignited using a flame front generator and/or the high-energy excitor (electronic sparking device). This pilot inherently provides redundancy in the event that one ignition system should fail to ignite the pilot for any reason. This pilot is a popular selection in critical applications that require redundant ignition systems.
