Meker Burner
Meker Burner (Product Code: SLE/B/18) is a high-heat laboratory gas burner used to heat crucibles, dishes and samples strongly and evenly in analytical, college and research laboratories. It is rated for temperatures up to 1750°C and sits on a one-piece die-cast base carrying its own gas and air regulators. The burner is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as part of its scientific laboratory equipment range.

What Is the Meker Burner Used For?
Meker burners are the usual choice for igniting precipitates to constant mass, heating crucibles red hot, fusing samples and driving off water from hydrated salts quickly. The wide, even flame heats the whole base of a crucible or evaporating dish at once, so samples reach temperature faster and more uniformly than over a Bunsen flame, which makes this burner a staple of college chemistry lab equipment in India.
Set the gas regulator first, light the burner, then open the air regulator until the flame is at its hottest and least luminous. Support crucibles on a pipe-clay triangle, keep the one-piece base on a clear, heat-resistant surface, and allow the burner head to cool fully before it is touched after a long run at high temperature.
OEM Manufacturer
ScienceLab is the brand under which Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited makes this burner. The company is its OEM (original equipment manufacturer), and the burner is produced at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, not sourced from a trading house. Colleges, research institutes, dealers and importers therefore receive quotations straight from the manufacturer, and repeat orders for matching burners come from the same source. See the company profile for more about the company.

Frequently Asked Questions
How hot does the Meker Burner get?
The Meker Burner is rated for temperatures up to 1750°C. The temperature reached in practice depends on the gas supply and on how the separate gas and air regulators are set, so adjust both for the hottest, least luminous flame.
Should I choose a Meker Burner or a Bunsen burner?
Choose the Meker Burner for strong, even heating of crucibles and evaporating dishes, such as igniting precipitates. A Bunsen burner remains the practical choice for general heating of test tubes and beakers on a school bench, where such high temperatures are not needed.
How are gas and air controlled on the Meker Burner?
The Meker Burner has separate gas and air regulators on its one-piece die-cast base. Setting the gas first and then opening the air lets the user tune the mixture until the flame is at its hottest and most even.
How does the Meker Burner compare with the Heavy Base and Economy models?
All three are Meker-type burners. This Meker Burner is the model with a stated rating of up to 1750°C and a one-piece die-cast base; the Heavy Base and Economy versions differ in base and construction.
Which gas is the Meker Burner set up for?
The fuel gas for the Meker Burner is not stated in our product details. Tell us whether your laboratory uses natural gas or LPG when you enquire, and we will confirm the right configuration before quoting.
Who manufactures the Meker Burner?
The Meker Burner is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) as the OEM, at its own factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Laboratories deal directly with the manufacturer for pricing, repeat orders and any replacement-part enquiries.
Can you supply Meker Burners for a college lab or export order?
Yes. The Meker Burner is supplied to colleges, research laboratories and distributors in India and international markets, in single units or bench quantities. Send your quantity, fuel gas and delivery location through the contact page or enquiry cart.
