Features of this product
Heat panel to accelerate the vaporization of gas
As the vaporization of gas progresses during combustion, the temperature
drops, the heating power weakens, and it becomes impossible to use all the
gas in the canister.
Topreventthis,amoderateamountofheatfromtheameoftheburnerduring
combustion is transferred to the canister to accelerate the vaporization of gas,
which maintains the heating power so that all the gas can be used up.
This makes the canister slightly warm, but this is not a problem.
Detachable canister with magnet
The canister is installed using the magnet instead of a lever.
Thismakesitdi󰀩culttoinstallanincorrectorfaultycanister.
Pressure sensor safety device
Ifthepressure(temperature)insidethecanisterbecomes
abnormallyhigh(about104ºF/40ºCorhigher),thecanister
isdetachedautomatically,andtheameisextinguished.
