PyroTechnical Ignition System (PTIS)

The pellet type ignition system (PTIS) was introduced in the North Sea in 1995. The installation of a Flare Gas Recovery system would result in the flare normally being unlit - the consequence being that the ignition system had to be completely reliable. A review of systems at the time led to the conclusion that such reliability was unattainable, and the first ignition system was developed to establish the required high reliability.
The business has developed two generations of ignition systems.

guided launching of ignition pellets by low pressure air.

The flare ignition system guarantees safe ignition of the flare whenever required. It is designed to ignite the flare gas exiting the flare tips in a reliable manner. The reliability of the flare ignition system is high enough to obviate the need for pilot burners which might be considered as an extra precaution for flares with a high H2S content. The fragment collector, located next to the flare tips is designed to withstand the maximum heat emitted at the maximum flaring case.
Significantly, the system does not require any sensitive equipment such as instruments, cables or other rigorous ignition or detection items near the flare tips.

Zero Routine FlaringThe World Bank - Zero Routine Flaring By 2030 Initiative is an important initiative to reduce cold-flaring and the environmental impact this have.
LTI contribute to aid operators in achieving the goal of reducing the need to cold-flare. Read more about how LTI contributes in link below; ZERO ROUTINE FLARING |
New Systems
LifeTime Igniton (LTI) can supply Flare Gas Ignition systems such as:
LTI cooperates with 20-years-fabricator of Pyrotechnical Ignition Systems: FRAMO Services in Norway. FRAMO have fabricated both Low Pressure (LP PTIS) as well as High Pressure Pyrotechnical Ignition Systems (HP PTIS) and is the sole fabricator for Legacy Spare Parts. Standard delivery time for new LP PTIS systems is 26 weeks - depending on Client involvement and Delays. |
