Electronic Spark Ignition (ESI)

Category:

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.

Flame front generators (FFG)

Flame front generators are effective, time proven ignition systems which have been widely used in flaring applications for decades. The inherent reliability, rugged construction, ease of operation, and its economic advantages have allowed the flame front generator (FFG) to remain one of the most popular forms of pilot ignition in the industry. The FFG is easily adaptable to any pilot system which incorporates an ignition tube and may be installed up to 1 mile (1600m) from the base of the flare stack. Both Automatic and manual modes are available.

Model 250 Energex Pilot

The Model 250 Energex Pilot is a high alloy, stainless steel pilot which combines a high voltage electronic excitor and a high energy spark rod to provide rapid, reliable ignition. More importantly, the Energex pilot provides instantaneous re-ignition if the pilot should ever lose its flame. This pilot system uses a fuel gas line much like other standard pilots, however, instead of a flame front generator it utilizes an excitor capable of producing a high voltage arc inside the pilot nozzle. Due to the integral location in the pilot head, the spark rod can initiate ignition immediately.

Model 245 Flame Front Generator Pilot

The Model 245 Fuel Efficient Flare Pilot is a high alloy, stainless steel pilot composed of fuel gas line, ignition line, inspirator, and optional thermocouple. The pilot head assembly includes a 310 stainless steel flame retention nozzle and wind shroud for extended service life while maintaining a capable of sustaining a stable flame in winds of up to 150 mph. Fuel gas passes through an inspirator at the base of the pilot, inducing air into the line and providing a combustible air/gas mixture. This gas exits the pilot head and is ignited by a fireball that travels up an ignition line.
