The amazing Arizona Hydrogen Flame Generator makes
its own hydrogen and oxygen gasses from distilled water and burns them
in a torch producing a 6000º F. flame. No separate tanks of fuel gasses
are required.
This safe torch makes an ideal tool for welding,
brazing, soldering, drilling, cutting, polishing and annealing for
metals, ceramics, glass and plastics. All at an operating cost of just
pennies per hour.
The Flame Generator internally produces hydrogen
and oxygen gasses from the distilled water fuel, utilizing the
electrolytic process. The gasses are generated naturally in the
two-to-one ratio needed for efficient flame combustion.
Ordinary 110 or 220V AC power is converted to DC
and used in the separation process. The line voltage is regulated
through a step-down transformer with the voltage control to produce the
desired rate of gas generation.
By varying torch tip size and gas pressure, the
flame length may be adjusted from .01" to 6" through tips with openings
from .003" to .062". With this flexibility, the Arizona Hydrogen Flame
Generator is especially useful in applications where clean burning and
close flame control are needed. With gas production and pressure easily
adjustable, regardless of tip size, and the high temperature generated,
the Flame Generator is well suited for welding and fusing platinum,
copper, beryllium, nichrome, Chromel and other hard-to-handle metals.
Among the Flame Generator's applications are
thermo-couple manufacture, annealing, spot welding, connecting
terminals, butt welding and joining sheet stock.
For applications where torch temperatures of less
than 6000º F. are needed, an optional alcohol Booster is available. The
introduction of alcohol vapor lowers flame temperature to 4000-4500º F.,
while increasing BTU output. Even lower temperatures may be achieved by
varying flame size, varying flame distance and application time. Fluxes
may be added to the Booster and fed directly into the flame for ease in
soldering gold and silver, silver brazing and soft solder applications.
The Flame Generator is equally easy to use for glass polishing and hole
drilling in quartz and ceramics, as well as in metal cutting. The wide
range of torch tip sizes and the regulation of gas pressure allows use
with metals from .0005" to a .25" thickness.
