Bunsen Burner - LPG

This LPG Bunsen burner is an essential piece of equipment for any school science laboratory, designed to deliver safe and reliable heat for various experiments. Constructed with a heavy die-cast zinc base, it ensures stability during use, reducing the risk of tipping. The burner features a nickel-plated brass tube with an adjustable air regulator, allowing students to control flame size and quality for different applications. Compatible with both propane and butane gas, this versatile burner supports hands-on learning in chemistry and physics, helping students explore heat transfer, combustion principles, and laboratory safety practices.

Educational Benefits:

• Provides hands-on experience with flame control and heat application.
• Supports chemistry lessons on combustion, oxidation, and gas flow regulation.
• Reinforces laboratory safety by teaching correct gas connection and burner setup.
• Demonstrates the effect of air supply on flame colour, temperature, and stability.
• Enables structured, practical learning in heat-related scientific experiments.

Classroom Applications:

• Conducting boiling, evaporation, and crystallisation experiments.
• Teaching safe gas connection techniques and routine equipment checks.
• Performing flame tests to identify different metal ions.
• Using with tripods and wire gauze for even heating of laboratory glassware.
• Demonstrating controlled heating processes in physics and chemistry experiments.
