Record 1 2000-04-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Combustion and Fuels (Fireplaces)
  • Burners and Steamfitting
DEF

A mixing device in which a jet of gas is used to entrain primary air at a rate proportional to the gas flow rate.

CONT

An inspirator mixer, does not require a blower but does require high pressure gas, (can be dangerous) and is not very economical or efficient. The tip or nozzle is usually always a flame retention type tip. The reason this burner requires high pressure gas is that the gas needs to be moving at a high rate of speed in order to induce enough air for proper combustion. It is usually used for propane and in a situation where no electricity is available. If you have high pressure gas it is recommended that you use a regulator and switch to an aspirator mixer type system.
