Usbeck micro burner for cartridge
This compact special burner with piezo ignition is ideal for precise heating and flaming tasks in laboratories, educational institutions and the catering industry. Thanks to its ease of use and low gas consumption, the device is particularly recommended where a clean, focussed flame is required. Anyone looking for a robust burner that can be used in a variety of ways in both professional kitchens and research environments should consider this appliance. The reliable temperature achievement up to 1640 °C makes it the preferred tool compared to similar products on the market.
Precise control and high safety
Equipped with piezo ignition, it is particularly easy to start up: just press a button and the flame is safely ignited. The air regulation makes it possible to adjust the flame ratio precisely to the desired application. This is particularly essential in laboratories or for delicate soldering and ignition work in order to protect sensitive materials or process them in a targeted manner. In addition, an integrated needle valve ensures precise regulation of the gas supply so that long burning times can be realised if required without compromising on safety.
When used in the catering industry, the same precise air and gas balancing is helpful for flambéing with pinpoint accuracy. Typical challenges such as uneven heating or unintentional burning of food are significantly reduced thanks to the infinitely variable control. Another advantage is the lightweight design, which makes everyday work easier for the operating staff.Important technical features
- Temperature range up to around 1640 °C
- Fuel consumption of approx. 0.1 l/h
- Output of around 1 kW
- Compact weight of just 145 g
- Height of only 60 mm
- Head diameter of 15 mm
- Optional adhesive base for an extra charge (to increase stability)
In addition to these points, other details are often decisive for the purchase. These include, for example, the space-saving compact design, which allows the burner to be placed directly next to other appliances without taking up much space.
Designed for cartridge operation, the transition from the gas container to the micro burner is secured so that the risk of gas leaks is minimised when used correctly. The flame cone is emitted in a stable and finely adjustable manner, which enables reproducible heat development in a short time. The fact that it can be used as a highly focussed flambé burner, for example for preparing crème brûlée, demonstrates its user-friendliness in a catering environment.
Certifications and standards
According to current information from the manufacturer, there is no DIN certification, but the appliance fulfils all relevant safety and quality standards that are required in professional environments. When used correctly, safe working is guaranteed, which is demonstrated by the stable flame guidance and the carefully processed components. In the laboratory area, attention should always be paid to proper testing and internal safety regulations.
Concrete application examples
- Rapid heating in the laboratory: Whether for sterilisation work or the rapid heating of small glass parts, the burner provides controlled heat without a long lead time.
- Soldering work in model making: Precision mechanical components can be safely welded or soldered thanks to the precise flame dosing.
- Gastronomic flambéing: From crème brûlée to browning desserts - the focussed flame gives food a crispy caramel coating.
- Heating speciality chemicals: Ideal for quickly heating various substances on a small scale, for example for vaporising or briefly tempering solvent residues.
FAQs
How do I change the gas cartridge safely?
Always disconnect the burner from the cartridge and allow it to cool down. Then attach the new cartridge until all seals are correctly seated. Always ensure that the screw cap is tight, but not too tight, so that the cartridge remains reliably sealed.
Which cartridge is suitable for this model?
Cartridges with a compatible screw thread or bayonet connection can be used. As there are various adapters and standards, we recommend consulting your specialist dealer to find the right model.
How do I clean the burner?
Use a soft cloth and clean the housing with a little detergent. The burner tube should be uncovered and carefully blown out to remove any dust residue or soot. Make sure that all components are completely dry before using the micro burner again.
Can the burner be in continuous operation?
Yes, as long as you ensure a sufficient gas supply and neither the valve nor the nozzle are blocked. For longer applications, always ensure a safe installation surface and good ventilation of the room.
What safety measures must be observed when using in the kitchen?
Always work on a sturdy, heat-resistant surface and keep children and unauthorised persons away. It is also advisable to have a suitable extinguisher within easy reach and never leave the burner burning unattended.
Conclusion
This versatile micro burner is characterised by its user-friendly piezo ignition and stable, reliable heat development. The air and gas regulation allows the flame intensity to be precisely adjusted, making it an indispensable tool for laboratory work, model making, catering and educational institutions. Thanks to its compact design, the appliance takes up very little space and can also be stowed away quickly and safely. If you are looking for a lightweight, powerful and flexible burner, this model is the ideal solution for a wide range of applications.
