Hey all, we are almost done building out a 7BBL brewhouse but can't find much information RE: a spark ignition for the burners. Does anybody have some leads we can follow? Thanks!

Thanks for the replies!
Unfortunately, I don't think the Midco works with our style setup. We have two impingement jet burners that look like this:
One each under our HLT and our boil kettle. As of now, we're just going to light them manually, but would like a more permanent solution -- just a standing pilot or electronic spark thrower that can withstand the heat.

No Compression Fittings
Originally posted by mbird View PostThis is what we did for pilots for direct fire. It is run separate from our gas lines to burners because we force compressed air through our burner lines to increase burner efficiency and this will blow out the pilots if in-line.[ATTACH]64092[/ATTACH]
Its a mistake to ever use compression type fittings with any type of Fuel Gas. This is very dangerous.Warren Turner

compressed air with fuel gas
Also, you state that you are using compressed air mixed in the gas lines.... this can be EXTREMELY dangerous if you do not have "flash-back arrestors" installed. pressurized fuel gas will not ignite inside a gas line because there is no oxygen. If you provide oxygen in that line it can ignite with deadly results.
