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.

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 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 the ignition line.
