What It Does

Reliable ignition and system upgrades for flare performance

D.B.I.’s ignition systems and retrofit solutions ensure dependable light-off, stable operation, and improved system performance across both high-pressure and low-pressure applications.

From pilot ignition to full system retrofits, each solution is designed to maintain operational continuity and reduce maintenance complexity.

Why It Matters

A flare system is only as reliable as its ignition system

  • Reduces downtime caused by ignition failure
  • Improves operational reliability in remote and harsh environments
  • Simplifies maintenance through accessible system design
  • Extends the life of existing flare systems through retrofit solutions

How It Works

D.B.I. ignition and retrofit systems are engineered to integrate directly with existing flare infrastructure or new system configurations.

  • Pilot systems provide consistent ignition performance
  • Control systems ensure reliable operation in remote locations
  • Retrofit solutions upgrade combustion performance without full system replacement
  • Designs prioritize accessibility for easier inspection and maintenance
