ABSTRACT:
A pilot burner has a saddle whereby it is attached to a flare pipe. The top of the pilot burner is at the flame end of the flare pipe so that a torch or flame from the pilot burner will ignite any waste gas being flared. The pilot burner is of tubular construction and includes a combustion chamber. The combustion chamber has a drain in the lower portion so that any fluids within the tubular pilot burner may be drained from it without impeding the flow of gas/air mixture entering the combustion chamber. A spark from a plug in the combustion chamber ignites the pilot flame. The electrical connector to the spark plug is in the form of 1/4" diameter stainless steal rod which is supported by ceramic insulators to avoid the electrical system being damaged by fire.
