These new burners will allow us to perform chemistry labs much more safely than we can now. These new burners will be used by chemistry students, biology students, and physical science students. They will allow for more versatility in our labs.
Some of our Bunsen burners are 20 years old! As burners age, they become more unpredictable. Some of the valves become stuck and it becomes impossible to regulate the air flow through them in order the adjust the flame. In others, the gas flow adjustment knob is stuck and the only way to adjust the flame height is at the actual gas valve. That makes it difficult.
