Usbeck cartridge burner, DIN, air regulation, including cartridge
This cartridge burner is a powerful and flexible solution for a wide range of applications in laboratories, workshops and educational institutions. Equipped with a precise needle valve and reliable air regulation, it guarantees optimum flame characteristics for precise results. Thanks to its compact design and enclosed cartridge, it is easy to transport and ready for immediate use. Anyone who values quality and safety will find this model an excellent alternative to conventional gas burners on the market.
Features and possible uses
The burner complies with all relevant DIN specifications, is certified in accordance with DIN-DVGW reg. no. DG-2411CM0440 and therefore fulfils high safety and quality standards. With a temperature of up to 1620°C, it enables fast heat-up times and even heat distribution. As it is operated with a butane/propane gas mixture (70% butane, 30% propane), the flame remains stable and can be precisely adjusted thanks to the intuitive air regulation.
The integrated 400 ml cartridge in accordance with EN 417:2012 is equipped with a safety valve that reliably protects against unintentional gas leaks. With a burn time of up to three hours, the device proves to be a long-lasting companion in many areas of application. The robust metal housing ensures a long service life, while the optional plastic handle (available as a spare part) further optimises handling. For a secure stand and greater convenience, an additional adhesive foot is only available in other versions for an additional charge.

Other important aspects such as the tube diameter (14 mm) and the optional availability of a plastic handle facilitate customisation for a wide range of applications. Despite its moderate gas consumption, the burner produces very efficient flames, which is an advantage in laboratories, workshops or educational facilities.
In many laboratories, for example, it is used to heat test tubes, flasks or petri dishes. Soldering work can also be carried out on small metal parts, whereby the fine regulation of the gas flow supports precise work. Anyone who has experimental applications with metal powders or glass processing will find this torch a reliable tool. The device is also a frequently used aid in training contexts for demonstrations of flame colouring or basic heat treatments.
The appliance is manufactured in accordance with DIN standards and exceeds many industry-standard safety requirements. For example, the safety valve effectively protects against gas leaks. When it comes to maintenance, it is advisable to regularly check the rubber sealing ring on the underside of the burner valve to ensure it is intact. This promotes a long service life as well as maximum safety.
Certifications and standards
With the DIN-DVGW reg. no. DG-2411CM0440, the manufacturer confirms compliance with strict safety and functional requirements. This certification, combined with fulfilment of the EN 417:2012 standard for cartridges, ensures that users can have absolute confidence in the reliability of the torch. This is a decisive criterion, especially in professional laboratories with high quality standards.
Concrete application examples
- Sterilisation of glassware in the laboratory at around 1600°C
- Soldering work on delicate workpieces, for example in precision mechanics
- Heating test tubes for solution production or distillation
- Demonstration experiments in educational institutions, e.g. flame colouring in chemistry
The flame cone can be precisely adjusted by easily regulating the air supply and gas flow, which emphasises the flexibility of the burner wherever clean and controlled work is required
FAQs
How does the air regulation work
?
An adjustable air supply on the burner makes it possible to precisely adjust the size and temperature of the flame. The needle valve allows a finely tuned release of the gas mixture, so that both a soft flame for sensitive materials and an intense flame for rapid heating can be set.
How long does the cartridge last?
The enclosed 400 ml cartridge enables a burning time of up to three hours, depending on the flame intensity setting.
Which gas mixture is used
The cartridge contains a propane/butane mixture in a 30:70 ratio, which ensures a high flame temperature and a stable flame at the same time.
What to look out for during maintenance
It is particularly important to regularly check the rubber sealing ring on the burner valve. If it is damaged, it must be replaced immediately to ensure a secure and tight connection.
Conclusion
This powerful torch offers a successful combination of precision, safety and excellent handling. Thanks to the DIN certification, the integrated cartridge and the high maximum temperature of up to 1620°C, it can be used for a wide range of professional applications. The device shows its strengths particularly in laboratories, training centres or for fine soldering tasks. The robust design, intuitive control and reliable safety standard contribute significantly to this. All in all, this cartridge torch is a clever choice for realising heat-intensive tasks flexibly and in compliance with standards.
