5" Horizontal Boiler

 

 

 

 

 

Designed to fill the gap between the 4" and 6" boilers, the 5" double burner boiler is a prolific steamer. The construction is similar to the 6" and, like its larger brother it has a coil superheater approximately 1.5 meters long.
Steam tests have shown that this boiler will produce over 1000 cubic inches of steam per minute at 50psi when running on pure butane and around 1300 ins/min @50psi when using a 65/35 butane/propane mix.
