High Pressure Retrofit Tips

Upgrade existing flare systems for improved performance and emissions control

  • D.B.I.’s High Pressure Retrofit Flare Tips are engineered to meet the unique needs of your facility. Designed for smokeless flaring of high-pressure vapors, both Fixed Orifice (TBone®) and Variable Orifice Pressure Tips (VOPT) can be added to existing flare systems or used as standalone high-pressure units.
  • These retrofit solutions are built for simplicity, cost-effectiveness, reliability, and broad operating capacity, helping reduce emissions while improving combustion performance.

What It Does

Enhances flare performance without full system replacement

High pressure retrofit tips allow existing flare systems to be upgraded for improved combustion efficiency and smokeless operation.

  • Improves combustion performance
  • Reduces visible emissions
  • Extends life of existing flare systems
  • Avoids full system replacement
Retrofit Options

Two proven retrofit paths for high-pressure flare upgrades.

D.B.I. offers both VOPT and TBone® retrofit configurations so systems can be matched to actual flow rates, pressure thresholds, and site operating needs.

Both options are engineered for smokeless operation, improved combustion performance, and practical integration into existing flare infrastructure.

Variable Orifice Pressure Tip (VOPT)

Self-aspirating smokeless performance

The VOPT is engineered for smokeless flaring of high-pressure vapors typically released from treaters and compressors during emergency events.

  • Smokeless operation from 0 to 10 MMSCFD per tip
  • No external power or sacrificial components required
  • Self-aspirating combustion design
  • Can be configured with up to six tips in dual pressure systems

TBone® Fixed Orifice Tip

Cost-effective high-volume flaring solution

The TBone® provides a reliable solution for high-volume emergency release flaring.

  • Custom-sized to match flow rates and pressure thresholds
  • 98%+ destruction efficiency (third-party verified)
  • 99% turndown ratio
  • Maintains low operating pressures

System Integration

  • Installed on existing flares using a 6" flange connection
  • Integrated into dual pressure systems (AF Series)
  • Deployed as standalone high-pressure flare units
  • Used in both new installations and retrofit projects

Key Features

  • Custom-Engineered for Compliance
  • Built for Performance
  • Smokeless Flaring
  • Tailored Solutions
  • Cost-Effective Retrofit Approach

Where It Fits

  • Existing high-pressure flare systems
  • Emergency release applications
  • Facilities targeting smokeless performance improvements
  • Sites needing emissions reductions without full replacement

Variable Orifice Pressure Tip Retrofit – Before and After

In this video, the flare on the left has been retrofitted to accept a VOPT, while the flare on the right operates without one. The visual difference is striking.

VOPT’s can be added to existing flares by installing a 6" flange at the tip.
