Typical Uses for the V100 Venturi

  1. Used for general heating in Gas Annealers, "Garages," and Bead Furnaces. Mate with a Giberson Headhead image, a needle valve and a gauge for a complete High Pressure burner system.
  2. Can be used for Pipe Warmers where from 12,000 to 40,000 Btu output is required.
  3. Mate with a pipe to power your glass blowing "garage."
  4. Or mate with a "Baby Bear" ribbon burner for that special addition of heat somewhere.

In our diagram to the left you can study the sectional drawing of the V100. This shows how a venturi works: the gas, under pressure, goes through a small orifice at a high rate of speed and passes through a throat (a general restriction). As the air/gas mixture opens on the other side of the throat restriction this causes a reduction of pressure at the back of the tube. Air rushes in through the air baffel (disc) to compensate.

This system requires no electricity to operate. It is a great help in the backup arsenol against electrical failure. This little venturi is capable of keeping a furnace or kiln in a holding pattern until power is restored. For proper operation this venturi should be mated to a burner head (like a Ransome "B-2" or a Giberson "3/16"). Call Dudley at 603-456-3569 to discuss options. Or simply e-mail.
