Solar and Battery Backup – The ignitor model has a redundancy unit within the control panel. This redundancy unit is wired to a direct power source to charge the batteries. If this power supply is ever interrupted, the ignitor will automatically switch its input power over to a solar panel to charge the batteries.

FlareTech - Electronic Spark Ignition System for Waste Gas Streams
FromFlareTech Inc.
Designed by FlareTech Inc., the Electronic Spark Ignition System (ESI) is tailored for emergency relief applications involving waste gas streams that are readily ignited. This system uses a continuous, intermittent arcing cycle, factory set for a 1-second arc every 10 seconds, to directly ignite waste gas streams. Intended for flaring when gas contains less than 1% sour content, the ESI features robust construction: the main body is made from 316 Stainless Steel, while the heat-affected zone uses 310 Stainless Steel for the probes. The precision-engineered ½” electrode probes, also from 316 Stainless Steel, are designed to prevent warping under heat. The center electrode pivots to avoid carbon build-up in the spark gap. It includes advanced proprietary high-heat insulators superior to traditional ceramic insulators. The ESI, adaptable to multiple voltages, integrates a redundancy unit that switches between solar and direct power sources, ensuring uninterrupted operation.Most popular related searches

The Electronic Spark Ignition System is utilized most commonly on emergency relief applications of waste gas streams that are easily ignited. The ESI is designed for a continuous, intermittent arcing cycle. The systems are factory set to arc every 10 seconds for approximately 1 second, to directly ignite the waste gas stream. To meet regulatory requirements and, as recommended by FlareTech, the ESI is only used when the waste gas being flared is less than 1% sour.
FlareTech’s Electronic Spark Ignitor main body is constructed from 316 Stainless Steel. The probes in the heat-affected zone are constructed from 310 Stainless Steel. The design of the ESI has been developed with over 30 years of experience and knowledge in the flare industry. The electrode probes are a ½”, 316 Stainless Steel rod; they are short, preventing any warping in the heat. Wind causes the center electrode to pivot across a fixed spark gap; this pivoting center electrode eliminates any potential problem of carbon build up in between the electrode’s spark gap. The insulators have been updated to a proprietary high heat material which has given excellent results over glazed ceramic or porcelain insulators.
