FLAMEBOY from Integra Bioscience is a handy and practical instrument that provides intrinsically safe flame sterilization.

The compact FLAMEBOY comes supplied with three nozzles providing optimal operation with propane/butane, natural gas or town gas. The size of the smooth flame is adjustable and when used with a gas cartridge safety adapter the DVGW safety certified FLAMEBOY is at hand wherever you need it, be in a production plant, fermenter, laboratory or outdoors. With no interfering cables or tubes the 'hands-free' FLAMEBOY is extremely easy-to-use.

Operation using a piezoelectric activator ensures that gas ignition is both rapid and safe; with the FLAMEBOY no lighter or matches is needed. If required the FLAMEBOY may also be connected to gas tubing and used as a fixed installation in a fumehood or laboratory.
