Introduction
The ability to control and direct heat in the lab is essential to many
experiments. Many lab burners are tethered to large fuel tanks and
lack mobility. Your Butane Burner, however, is a small, portable unit
that carries its own refillable fuel tank in its tip-resistant base. It is
built with a simple on/off trigger ignition design and can create an
adjustable flame with an approximate maximum temperature of 1300°
C (2450° F) that will burn between 40 and 60 minutes on a single tank
of butane.
How to Use
Familiarize yourself with the following instructions to ensure safe use of your Butane Burner:
Fueling
1. Locate a quality
filtered butane fuel
and move to a well-ventilated area.
(Note:
Never fill near an open flame.
)
2.
Make sure that your gas knob is in the OFF position, and flip you burner upside down.
(Note:
Be careful to not
touch or damage your flame head or ignition pin.
)
3.
Insert the tip of your butane canister into the filler valve on the bottom of your burner. Back spray of liquid
fuel from your valve will indicate that your tank is now full. Do not over fill.
4. Wait 5 minutes for your gas to stablize before igniting.
Igniting, Adjusting, and Turning Off the Flame
1. Place your burner on a level surface.
2.
Turn your gas knob counter-clockwise until you hear a
soft “hissing” noise.
3.
Press the red button on your knob to ignite the flame.
4.
Adjust your flame’s intensity by turning your gas knob
counter-clockwise. Low to medium gas flow is ideal.
(Note:
Your flame should burn
blue.
A
red
flame
indicates that you are low on fuel and need to refill.
)
5. Turn your gas knob clockwise until it is in the OFF
position to extinguish your flame.
6. Allow your unit to cool before you store it or leave it
unattended.
