PilotEye2000™


PilotEye2000John Zink Company has more flares in use around the world than any other flare vendor. And with more than 50 years of successful flare-design experience, John Zink® is continuing to lead the industry in flare-technology developments at our world-class International Research and Development Test Center - the largest flare test center in the world.

John Zink's goal is to provide customers with the optimum flare equipment for their specific application. Consequently, John Zink offers the PilotEye2000 pilot monitor - durable, reliable and fast pilot verification.

Features and Benefits

1.0 The PilotEye2000 is the most sensitive infrared monitor on the market. With an enhanced design, the PilotEye2000 is able to see through the meanest weather - monitoring through 4-times more steam, fog, rain, and snow than the previous-generation PilotEye.
2.0 Both the original PilotEye and the new PilotEye2000 are dual-wavelength monitoring devices that greatly decrease false alarms often experienced with single wavelength devices.
3.0 Although a standard PilotEye2000 does not come with a CSA sticker, the John Zink representative in Calgary can quickly and efficiently attain CSA certification. As of 6/2000, the cost was US$350 for two units and two communication modules.
4.0 A Beldon Cable #83606 or equivalent cable connects the communication module to the optical-sensing device. The cable consists of six 20-AWG conductors with an overall braided shield and a Teflon jacket.

Troubleshooting

1.0 What happens when the PilotEye2000 loses power?

If power is lost, the contact is in the closed position (alarm condition).
2.0 Experiencing false alarms at sunrise and/or sunset.

Every day the sun changes position. Eventually, the edge of the sun becomes visible inside the target area, triggering the alarm. The alarm should go away in about 1 week. Another solution is to extend the sight tube 14 in. using a 1-1/2-in. pipe diameter that is 10-in. long (1-1/2-in. male coupling with a 4-in. female coupling). Then drill a weep hole at the base of the extension.
Clean Combustion. Clear Solutions.
