1A Smoke Candle (30 Second) Superior Signal

1A Superior Signal Smoke Candles produce large quantities of dense, white smoke for tracing air flow patterns and leak-testing.  Start the 1A smoke candles with a match or lighter.  They produce no flame, only 4000 cubic feet of smoke by a thermogenic chemical reaction over a 30 second burn time. 

 

Leak Detection:  Smoke from a 1A Superior Smoke Candle is highly visible, blending readily with air and gases.  While a burning smoke candle is hot, the resulting smoke is cool and does not support combustion.  Invisible leaks become readily detectable when Superior Smoke is added.  To detect leaks in small- or medium- sized enclosures--such as furnaces, tanks, piping systems and ductwork--use enough smoke to fill a volume at least 2-3 times greater than that being tested.  

 

Air-Flow Studies:  Superior 1A Smoke Candles simplify the observation of flow patterns in all types of wind tunnels, air-moving equipment, and natural airflow, indoors or out.  Generally, 1 part smoke to two parts air (volume:volume) provides readily viewable results.
