1 MEET THE FLAMEBLAZER®!
The MAGICFX FLAMEBLAZER® is a special eects machine for controlled emission of
ame jets into the air in a xed direction.
The machine uses specic ammable fuels that are projected from a single outlet
across spark ignition probes to produce the ame jet. An integrated electric pump
draws the fuel from the 5 L can and generates the ring pressure.
There are three nozzles available with the MAGICFX FLAMEBLAZER®which are
interchangeable, allowing the user to choose a small, medium or large ame. Based
on zero wind the sizes are as follows:
• L nozzle, up to 10 m (included);
• S nozzle, up to 6 m (accesory);
• M nozzle, up to 8 m (accesory).
A specic nozzle exchange tool is available to change between the S, M and L
nozzles (SFX 1404)
The FLAMEBLAZER®has a dedicated safety circuit so must be used in conjunction with
a MAGICFX® FX-ARM CONTROLLER (MFX 3220).
The MAGICFX FLAMEBLAZER® is tted for operation:
• With DMX and RDM;
• With an external Low Voltage Pyro input (typical 12-40 Vdc);
• In sequence with multiple machines.
