Usbeck Bunsen burner all gas, needle valve, air regulation
The Usbeck Bunsen burner all gas, needle valve, air regulation is a reliable tool for precise heat applications in professional laboratory environments. It is based on a straight burner tube and is characterised by its versatility with different types of gas such as natural gas, propane or butane. Especially in analytical laboratories, where precise flame control and high temperature stability are crucial, this model offers outstanding performance compared to conventional burners. The needle valve allows fine regulation of the flame intensity and the sliding air sleeve ensures optimum control of the air flow. As a result, an extremely clean, even flame can be achieved for a wide range of heating, sterilisation and melting processes.
Reliable performance for a wide range of laboratory applications
The sophisticated design with needle valve and air regulation ensures safe, comfortable working when heating samples, killing germs or welding certain materials. At the same time, the torch is flexible enough to be quickly adapted to different types of gas. Whether in university research, industrial laboratories or training centres: This laboratory torch scores points with its durability and practical design, which is impressive both in everyday continuous use and in special applications.
Special features:
- Precise flame control thanks to needle valve
- Air supply via adjustable air sleeve, lateral air intake
- Straight burner tube for reliable, even flame control
- Compatible with natural gas, propane and butane (all-gas)
- High operating temperature up to 1460 °C
- Powerful with low consumption (110 l/h)
- Optional adhesive foot variant on request
In addition, the appliance has a load of 1.2 kW and weighs just 270 g. The height of 170 mm, combined with a tube diameter of 13 mm and a head diameter of 17 mm, makes this burner pleasantly compact. It can therefore be easily integrated into standard laboratory set-ups and quickly adjusted or replaced if necessary. It is designed to be as easy to maintain as possible, which further increases its service life.
Certifications and standards
The burner fulfils common quality and safety requirements in laboratory environments. In the professional sector, compliance with all regulations for the use of gas-powered burners and CE labelling is also essential to ensure smooth operation in accordance with European standards. Users can therefore rely on a tested and compliant product solution that meets the high requirements in the laboratory.
Application examples
- Heating sample solutions in chemical or medical laboratories, for example to evaporate solvents
- Sterilisation of microbiological instruments such as inoculation loops or pipette tips by brief, intensive exposure to flame
- Welding of small glass vessels and quartz tubes, e.g. for analysis purposes or for microreactors
- Melting of low-melting-point metals and alloys for material testing or repairs
Thanks to its all-gas functionality and precise controllability, the burner can be used for a wide range of applications. Whether you use propane for a particularly hot flame for rapid heating or natural gas for AAS applications (atomic absorption spectroscopy), the cleanly regulated flame supports precise material testing, calibration processes and general laboratory routines.
FAQs
How to clean the burner
Regular removal of soot and gas residues extends the service life. The best way to do this is to brush the burner tube with a mild cleaning brush, then blow out any residue with compressed air or a gentle jet of water. The appliance should be cooled down and disconnected from the gas supply before cleaning.
Which gas connections are required?
Most laboratories use standardised gas connections that are suitable for natural gas, propane or butane operation. A quick check with the house installation or the gas supplier prevents incompatibilities. Depending on the model, an adapter solution is also possible.
Can the flame be adjusted individually?
Yes, the gas supply can be very finely controlled using a needle valve. The oxygen supply can be regulated via the adjustable air sleeve, which allows the flame colour (e.g. glowing or sizzling) and intensity to be adjusted.
Is there a safety-relevant automatic switch-off function?
In many laboratories, a separate gas regulator or shut-off valve that can stop the gas flow is used for safety reasons. This allows the gas to be turned off quickly in an emergency, even if the burner itself is controlled manually.
Conclusion
This Bunsen burner offers precise handling, high temperature output and flexible gas utilisation - ideal conditions for safe use in demanding laboratory environments. The combination of needle valve, air regulation and robust design ensures reliable results in a wide range of applications. The result is a durable, professional tool that fully meets the quality requirements of modern research and industry.
