How it is used
For high-temperature work the burner has to stay put: a crucible on a pipeclay triangle or a heavy vessel on a tripod above it should not be disturbed if the gas tube is knocked. The heavy, wide die-cast base of this Meker burner gives that stability, and its 150 mm height keeps the flame at a practical working level under a tripod.
The rotatable air regulator around the jet sets how much air is drawn in with the gas. Opening it until the flame over the perforated plate becomes a close bed of small blue cones gives the hottest, most even heat; closing it gives a softer flame. The perforated top plate keeps the flame stable over long heating runs such as ignition of precipitates or heating crucibles to constant mass.
- Stand the burner on a heat-resistant surface and connect the riffled inlet to the gas tap.
- Close the air regulator, open the gas and light the burner.
- Turn the air regulator gradually until the plate shows an even bed of blue flames.
- Set the crucible or vessel on a support above the plate and heat as required.
- Close the gas tap after use and let the burner cool on the bench.
