They become shorted, wear down, or fail due to the harsh environment. SureFire saw this liability and engineered a more reliable ignition system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The Problem with Spark Ignition<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional ignition relies on a high voltage coil to generate a spark across an apparatus to ignite fuel gas. Moisture, corrosion, vibration, standard wear and tear, and poor grounding can often cause ignition failure. Every ignition issue means downtime, venting of raw natural gas, loss of production and unnecessary field visits.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The Future \u2013 Sparkless Ignition<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SureFire\u2019s sparkless ignition design eliminates many of the susceptibility points associated with spark ignition:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span> <\/span>Doesn\u2019t require a coil<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span> <\/span>There isn\u2019t a gap to maintain to ensure the spark can occur<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span> <\/span>Freezing and moisture rich environments don\u2019t cause shorts<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span> <\/span>Burner designs limit the susceptibility to application-based wear and tear<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span> <\/span>Reduces maintenance and service calls out<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The sparkless, hot surface igniters are integrated in a variety layouts based on the application.
