Dietz Famous Kerosene Lanterns
Cold Blast Lanterns are so constructed that the supply
of air taken through the side tubes does not mingle with the products
of combustion and the flame is supplied with fresh air both through
the globe plate and the side tubes. The spent products of combustion
escape to the outer air through a central metal chimney in the
Lantern head. From an air chamber surrounding the metal chimney,
which is provided with injectors for taking in fresh air, fresh
air is taken into the side tubes, down which it flows to the lower
air chamber and thus to the burner. The "Cold Blast"
Lantern design produces a perfectly white flame and approximately
twice the volume of light of the older style "Hot Blast"
Lantern with the same size wick. This fact has rendered the "Cold
Blast" Lantern a favorite with users.
Approved Fuels for use in all wick lamps and lanterns include:
Kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, clear or colored lamp oil, paraffin
oil, or citronella oil. Wicking is consumed at the rate of approximately
1/8"-3/16" per gallon of fuel burned. Wick consumption
does vary according to the fuel used, the more refined the fuel,
the longer the wick lasts and the cleaner the lantern burns. Paraffin
oil is the cleanest burning, and generally is reserved for use
indoors due to it's cost. Citronella oil is for outside use only,
and is commonly used for combating insects. At no time should
gasoline, Coleman fuel/white gas, paint thinner, wood alcohol,
diesel, or any other explosive fuel be used in a wick lantern.
