Seemingly small and convenient cassette furnace
Why is it so powerful?
The reporter visited a number of restaurants in the center of Kunming, and did not find that any merchants used similar cassette stoves, and the merchants said that because the stove cylinders were too small, they were not practical in restaurants.
Some citizens said that they had used such cassette stoves.
Citizen: "There seems to be one at home, which is used when eating hot pot, and we have used this stove, but we should pay attention to safety when using it, and the pot cannot cover the entire stove." ”
Zhao Shiyu, deputy director of the fire rescue station of Baoshan Street, Panlong District: "The pot is larger than the size of the furnace, and the heat continues to be conducted through the pot to the vicinity of the gas cylinder, and the temperature around the gas cylinder continues to rise, resulting in an increase in the pressure in the gas cylinder, which will cause an explosion when it reaches a certain level. ”
According to the firefighters, the gas cylinders of the cassette furnace are mainly filled with butane as fuel, and if the pot exceeds the size of the furnace or even covers the entire gas cylinder, it is easy to cause the temperature of the gas cylinder to rise and cause an explosion. Experiments have shown that the temperature around the cassette cylinder is more than 30 degrees higher than that of a small pot when using a large pot, and the danger is self-evident.
Zhao Shiyu, deputy director of the fire rescue station of Baoshan Street, Panlong District: "The cylinder body of the cassette furnace cylinder is thin, and it is easy to be damaged and cause gas leakage when the external pressure is too large or collides with hard objects. ”
