•t Reliable Ignition
95% ignition rate in most applications.
The DURAFire® can be used as a Class 1, Class 2, or Class 3 igniter,
depending on the burner capacity. The DURAFire® is easily installed as a retrofit
The DURAFire® oil igniter consists of five major components: a guide
tube, an atomizer/head assembly, an oil/air mixture transport tube, a spark rod,
internals, which are attached to the head and easily removed from the guide
tube for maintenance purposes by releasing a “V” band retainer, requiring no
and maintain the primary combustion zone during operation. This controlled
mixture of fuel and air in the primary combustion zone results in a highly
reliable, stable igniter flame. While out of service, airflow cools the igniter and
prevents debris from entering the end of the guide tube.
•t High Efficiency Air Atomizer
The internal mix atomizer is selected from a
standard set of sizes for each project.

The DURAFire® oil igniter comes standard with Forney’s High Energy
Spark Igniter (HESI) as the spark source. The HESI produces a powerful 12joule spark approximately three times per second at the primary combustion
