ZEUS Spark-Ignited Flare Pilot
The conventional means of lighting elevated flare pilots is by simple flame-front ignition. However, it often takes several minutes to relight a pilot, and it can take even longer if conditions are not ideal. For this reason, John Zink has developed the ZEUS ignition system which has been successfully applied to the well-proven JOHN ZINK‚® model EEP pilot. |

WindPROOF
InstaFire Flare Ignition System The industry choice for safe, reliable
flare ignition.
At John Zink Company, we understand that a single pilot failure can bring your
operation to a sudden, expensive halt. That why we designed our InstaFire
ignition system to include our patented WindPROOF technology a proven
technology so stable it operates even in the most extreme conditions. |

PilotEye 2000
The PilotEye 2000TM from John Zink provides
precise flame detection, using an at-grade mounted infrared sensor
- revamped with digital logic and communication capabilities. |
 |
Flare System Controls
John Zink Company, one of the world's largest manufacturer of flare systems, offers complete flare control packages. John Zink's experience with thousands of flare systems ensures well-designed and proven controls technology. |
 |
Liquid Seals and Knock-Out Drums
A properly designed flare system includes at least two special purpose vessels as safety devices. Each has a specific function: the liquid seal protects the flare header from air infiltration; and the knock-out drum collects liquids before they enter the flare system. |
 |
Purge Conservation Systems
The safety of the flare system is dependent upon the prevention of air infiltration into the flare. The most effective method for the prevention of air infiltration is the introduction of purge gas. John Zink engineers can provide flare systems and accessories to minimize the purge gas required and ensure the safety of your relief system. |

The Wave of the
Future is SoundProof®
John Zink® introduces SoundProof®, a patented flare pilot monitor that continuously verifies the pilot flame status. SoundProof is unlike any other in the industry. |
