During a barbecue in the wild

Just bought for one month

A cassette furnace that has only been used twice

Sudden explosion

Caused 7 people to varying degrees

Some injured were severely scalded and hospitalized

Mr. Chen said

The small gas tank is powerful

And there is no sign of explosion at once

Many people were bandaged into "mummy"

The danger of a cassette furnace cannot be underestimated

A cartridge furnace, also known as a portable butane gas furnace, is a non-fixed cooking kitchen utensil that uses butane gas as the main fuel gas (liquefied gas and other gases can also be used as fuel) and directly heated with fire.

The cassette stove is light and portable, and can be used for hot pot, barbecue, and grilled fish. It is very common in outdoor camping and restaurants. However, once used improperly, its destructive power can be quite considerable .

In order to test the "power" of the explosion of the cassette furnace, firefighters cut the cassette gas tank about 2 mm and put it into the cassette furnace to simulate the leakage state of the gas tank. Less than three minutes after ignition, accompanied by a loud bang, the cassette furnace was blown beyond recognition, and the gas tank even flew ten meters away.

Cassette furnace explosion occurs

On April 6 this year, a woman in Shijiazhuang, Hebei used a cassette stove to barbecue while camping outdoors. Suddenly, the cassette stove exploded, and the food and pots on the table were blown away. Fortunately, the personnel were not injured.

On March 4 this year, a fire broke out on the third floor of a residential building in a community in Nanming District, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province. After the firefighters arrived at the fire floor, they successfully rescued the trapped people. The cause of the fire is inadvertent use of the fire, which causes the gas cylinder of the cassette to explode and ignite the surrounding combustible materials to catch fire.

On December 10, 2024, Zhou Hei Ya founder Zhou Fuyu also posted a video saying that he encountered an explosion while using a cassette furnace to boil water outdoors, and his face and arms were bandaged on a large scale.

Such a dangerous thing, can the cassette furnace still be used?

Generally speaking, a cassette furnace has an overpressure protection device. When the temperature is too high, the cassette furnace will drive the door buckle through a spring and force the gas cylinder to eject. This device is mandatory for national standards and the cassette furnace must be installed. However, as a mechanical firmware, the overvoltage protection device may fail after use, so it is necessary to regularly check whether the overvoltage protection device can be used normally.

The cylinder body of the cassette gas tank is thin and may be deformed due to squeezing and collision during transportation. Before using the gas tank, be sure to carefully check whether the surface of the gas tank is damaged and whether it is leaking. It is strictly forbidden to tilt or invert the tank.

In addition, when using a cassette furnace, be sure to keep the gas tank away from the heat source , and do not use pots with a chassis larger than the bottom of the furnace body. Otherwise, the heat will be transferred to the gas tank through the pot, causing an explosion.

These scenarios cannot use card furnace

● You cannot use a cassette furnace as a heating furnace or in airtight occasions.

● Do not use under strong or hot air. Strong winds blow out the flames, while hot winds cause air pressure to rise and cause explosions.

● Do not use near flammable materials or curtains.

● It cannot be used in places with open flames or other heat sources nearby.

How to use the cassette furnace correctly?

First of all, you should choose products from regular manufacturers and do not disassemble or modify them by yourself. Read the instruction manual carefully before use.

Secondly, it is strictly forbidden to tilt the tank body. When using a cassette furnace, it is necessary to ensure that the gas is used for the first time. Check whether the interface is leaking before ignition. It is strictly forbidden to tilt or invert the tank body.

Third, choose the matching pot.

Finally, it cannot be used under strong winds, and in places with hot sun or nearby places with open flames and other heat sources.
