2 Tirrill (Bunsen) Burner

3 How the parts work. Turning the barrel Controls type of flame (orange or blue) by opening and closing the air vent. Always use blue flame (open vent); however, vent should not be wide open for initial igniting.

4 How the parts work. Gas Flow Control  Controls the height of the flame through controlling the amount of gas flowing.  Use appropriate flame height. NO TORCHES.

5 Operation of the Tirrill (Bunsen) Burner  Hook the hose to the gas inlet and gas jet  Place spark ignitor next to top of barrel  Turn on gas and ignite with sparker  Make barrel and gas flow control adjustments for proper flame

6 Trouble Shooting  You should be able to hear the gas flowing. If not:  Check if gas flow control valve is open  Check if jet valve is clogged. If so see your teacher.

7 Troubleshooting  Gas attempts to light but goes out. Possible causes are:  Air vent is to far open. Turn the barrel down.
