FPS leads the market in the supply, service and support of reliable ignition equipment, with an international installed base of over 11,000 ignitors, in a wide variety of burner designs and fuel applications. Installations range in size from single burner package boilers to the largest boilers in the world. Our largest installation was a 1300 mw boiler with 112 ignitors.

FPS conceives, designs, tests and fabricates all of our ignitors at our head office/factory in NS, Canada. This process has been in place since our very first ignitor and allows our product application/service engineers, ignitor design engineers and fabrication personnel to work closely together ensuring a quality ignitor product.

FPS recognizes that our customers have unique ignition requirements; due to the inherent differences in their boilers, burners or fuel supply systems. Each ignitor application is different and must be studied to ensure that the correct ignition product is supplied. Our dedicated team of product application engineers work directly with users of the ignition products to ensure that the correct ignitor is selected and customized for each application. All aspects of the application will be reviewed, including but not limited to: fuel type, fuel source, fuel supply piping, valves, fuel pressure control, desired firing rate, air delivery system, atomizing media, burner type and ignitor location within the burner.

All FPS products are backed by outstanding customer service and more than thirty years of quality, integrity and field experience. Through the careful integration of electrical and mechanical components, FPS developers have been able to achieve optimal performance in fuel atomization, combustion, flame stability and flame monitoring.

 

Gas Ignitor Small ImageStainless Steel Gas Ignitor Nozzle

FPS Gas Ignitors  are available in heat releases ranging from 1,000,000 btu/hr to 30,000,000 btu/hr. All gas ignitors feature three-stage ignition to create a continuous, lively, self-renewing flame unaffected by burner and furnace conditions. Stainless steel gas nozzles and furnace side components are designed to withstand the boiler environment.

 

 

OIL Ignitor Small ImageFPS Oil Ignitors

FPS Oil Ignitors  are available in heat releases ranging from 2,000,000 btu/hr. to 30,000,000 btu/hr. The reliability of FPS oil ignitors is enhanced by the atomizer design which produces small, readily combustible droplets of oil. The nozzle design then distributes the atomized oil in a staged manner producing a continuous, lively, self-renewing flame unaffected by burner and furnace conditions.

 

 

Plasma Arc Ignitor Smaller ImageFPS Oil Ignitors

FPS Plasma Arc Ignitors  are designed to provide a high output pulsed spark (3 sparks/sec) for the forceful ignition of fuel oil. Each powerful spark pulse creates a shock at the spark plug tip, which disperses any material collecting on the tip of the spark plug. This continuous cleaning of the spark tip reduces the need for manual cleaning which is characteristic of continuous voltage ignition systems.
