The biggest worry with spirit lamps in a busy classroom is a lamp being knocked over and spilling burning fuel. This burner tackles that directly: it resists tipping and does not leak if it does go over, which makes it a sensible choice for younger students and crowded benches. One filling lasts over an hour, enough for a double practical without refuelling mid-lesson.
Typical tasks include heating small volumes of water or solutions on a stand, evaporation and simple distillation demonstrations, and heat experiments in physics. Its low 3 in height suits short burner stands. Fill it only when cool and unlit, light the torch, and cover it with the aluminium snuffer cap to extinguish. Schools planning a school laboratory setup in India without gas lines often choose wickless burners for every workstation.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known by its trade name ScienceLab, is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of this wickless burner. It is built at the company's own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, not sourced from a reseller, and dispatched factory-direct to schools, science clubs, distributors and importers. Enquiries about replacement snuffer caps or repeat orders go straight to the manufacturer, so just ask us. See the company profile page.
