Burner Tirrill (Product Code: SLE/B/15) is a Tirrill-pattern laboratory gas burner used for hotter heating work, such as crucible ignitions and glass bending, in senior school, college and analytical teaching labs. Both supplies can be adjusted, gas through a brass needle valve and air through adjustable air ports, and balancing the two gives a flame that can reach up to 1550°C. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

The extra heat helps wherever a plain Bunsen flame is slow: heating a crucible to constant mass when finding water of crystallisation, igniting precipitates in gravimetric analysis, burning magnesium ribbon in oxide-formation experiments and softening glass tubing for simple bends. Light the burner with the needle valve partly open, then widen the air ports until the inner blue cone is sharp and well defined; the hottest zone lies just above the tip of that cone.
For crucible work, rest the crucible in a pipe-clay triangle on a tripod and lift it only with crucible tongs once heating is complete. Keep the burner tubing clear of the base while the flame is high, and let the tube cool before the burner is handled or stored. Colleges building up their chemistry lab equipment often keep a few Tirrill burners alongside standard Bunsen models.
This Tirrill burner is an OEM product of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab. The company makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and sells it straight from the factory to schools, colleges, analytical teaching labs, dealers and importers, instead of passing it through a trader. For replacement parts or further burners to match an existing set, ask us and the manufacturer will respond directly. Find out more on the company profile page.

How hot does the Tirrill burner get?
The Burner Tirrill (SLE/B/15) can reach up to 1550°C. Temperature varies across any gas flame, and on this burner the hottest zone lies just above the tip of the inner blue cone once the gas and air are balanced.
How does the Burner Tirrill differ from a standard Bunsen burner?
On the Burner Tirrill, both the gas supply (through the brass needle valve) and the air supply (through the adjustable air ports) can be regulated. That allows a better-balanced gas-air mixture and a hotter flame than a simple Bunsen burner.
What is the needle valve on the Burner Tirrill made of?
The needle valve that adjusts the gas supply on the Burner Tirrill is made of brass. For details of other parts or materials that your purchasing specification requires, ask us through the contact page before ordering.
