FARVIS burners are designed for site use and made from heavy duty steel.  These units were designed for industrial process applications such as meat cooking and other operations where there is a need for easy cleaning and a robust, hard working burner.

Burners can be made to your required length and are economic to buy and to run.  As standard we fit a heavy duty full length base plate but as they are made to order we can include mounting brackets and  custom flame positions to suit your needs.

18"  burner at full power

 Larger units can supply 100 kW at full output pressure which is more than adequate for most uses!  Progressive control from off to maximum is available instantly by altering the gas pressure at the regulator ( see details on regulator sets below ).

SPECIAL EFFECTS BURNERS

We can supply special effects units for film work and sets.  The burner above was designed to simulate a burning car in a South African riot (!!) and we also specialise in equipment to produce a 'heat haze' effect for filming.  With years of experience in the application of LPG equipment we are always interested in a new challenge.

12"micro burners ( special order only ).  Specification and mountings to your requirements.

HIGH OUTPUT SPECIAL PURPOSE 'RIBBON' BAR BURNER

This has a mesh ribbon giving a very even flame and a uniform height throughout the burner length.  They are easier to block and not as robust as the previous type, but give a more uniform linear heating effect and are quieter at full power operation.

To special order only.

Standard lengths are 1.5 and 1 metre bar length with a flame length of slightly less. Other sizes to order as required.

FLAME FAIL SHUT OFF

THIS WILL SHUT OFF THE SUPPLY OF GAS IN THE EVENT OF THE FLAME GOING OUT, PREVENTING AN UNCONTROLLED ESCAPE OF GAS. IT HAS MANY ADVANTAGES BUT IT IS A RELATIVELY SENSITIVE SYSTEM AND CAN BE SUBJECT TO DAMAGE IF USED IN WET OR AGGRESSIVE CONDITIONS. HENCE IT IS NOT FITTED AS STANDARD TO INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT.

THIS MODIFICATION MUST BE SPECIFIED AT THE TIME OF ORDER.
