FLARE Pilot Systems
Ignition System / Flame Front Generator
OUR EXPERTISE
Best-in-class combustion engineering.
Backed by industry leading advances gained from over 35 years of pilot supply and exposure, Prism has the knowhow to keep your flare system burning. The original “Premier Pilot” guarantees a long and dependable life, designed, and manufactured to endure the harshest environments. With decades of experience as a successful workhorse, the quality behind the Premier Pilot speaks for itself. Your best option for a new installation, we have installed hundreds of Premier Pilots as upgrades on competitors existing flare stacks as well.
The Premier Pilot couples with most flare stack’s, such as:

Why Flare Ignition Systems?
The number of pilots required also depends on the diameter of the flare tip. As the flare tip diameter increases, the number of pilots required to reliably light the flare increases, as shown below.
Min. Number of Pilots Recommended | Flare burner Diameter (mm) | Flare burner Diameter (in.) |
1 | Up to 200 | Up to 8 |
2 | Up to 600 | Up to 24 |
3 | Up to 1050 | Up to 42 |
4 | Up to 1500 | Up to 60 |
Prism Flare Ignition Systems
Backed by the best in the industry.
Unlike other industrial burner manufacturers, Prism has worked hard to tackle the numerous issues that have plagued competitor models, overcoming the ordinary, and offering you incomparable combustion engineering (or “combustion tech”). With a rugged 304 and 310SS design built for extreme environments, the Premier Pilot is fully welded and does not feature any threaded thin wall components. Straight and 45-degree models are available based on the application, both featuring an SS thermowell coupled with strategic thermocouple placements that extend the products life and aid in the precision of real time pilot temperatures.
Available Harnesses
General/CID1Rated
BASIC
- Parts Only: Parts are shipped loose and assembled on site during install.
Note: Electri-Lite harness will not have fuel line.
Note: Harness assembly costs are not covered in flare quote unless pre-built option is selected.
PRO
- Pre-Built: Parts are pre-built and arrange in the crate so parts install directly to stack. Decreasing on site crew costs and increasing install success.
Note: Electri-Lite harness will not have fuel line.
Note: Harness assembly costs are not covered in flare quote unless pre-built option is selected.

Controls
The Premier Pilot’s control panel has been designed around Prism’s many years of combustion solutions experience and four decades of customer feedback. Keeping your flare stack reliably lit, the controls are temperature rated down to -40 degrees and built for any classification of environment. Large displays provide real time feedback of individual pilot temperatures and alarm status, with the capability for remote programmability, alarm status output, and live pilot rod status information.
The robust circuit board baked into the burner management system are built to withstand six times the current load required and will defend against the breakdown of condensation from many years of temperature swing cycles. Locking spring lever wire connections ensure a solid connection to field wiring, while the side mounted switch allows for manual, automatic, and remote pilot rod ignition.
All controls come fully programmed, calibrated, and run-tested to meet your company’s individual needs with the quality you expect.
Prism is a member of CSA B149.3 Flare Working Group and has the knowledge to ensure the safety and field approval of combustion engineering appliances and equipment in Canada. Whether you are purchasing a new flare system or looking to upgrade your non-compliant equipment, Prism is ready to assist you through the process.
