Flare Pilot Burners (electrical ignited)
Ignition of waste gas from pipe flares, air and steam assisted flares and ground flares. For most flare systems the pilot burner can not be accessed for service. Maintenance or replacement is not possible while the flare is in operation. To safeguard operation, Smitsvonk’s pilots provide reliable ignition and stable burning even under the most difficult climate conditions.
Overview

- Complete delivery; cables, junction boxes and ignition unit
- Easy fit cable connectors
- Self-aspirating or forced air supply
- Integrated and protected thermocouple
- Functionally tested to client specifications
- Construction completely out of high temperature-resistant stainless steel
Applications
- Ignition of flares in the (petro) chemical industry
- Ignition of flares in the oil and gas industry
- Ignition of flares in the steel industry
- Biogas flares
