Gas cartridge with butane/propane gas, with standard EN417 screw thread and safety valve. The content of this gas cartridge is 500g.
You screw on the gas cartridge directly under the Safari Chef HP, or you can use it in combination with a gas pressure regulator such as the Dual Power Pak.
Ideal for camping holidays, picnics or hiking.
With 1 can of CA500 you can barbecue for about 2 to 4 hours, depending on the type of BBQ. More information on how long you can cook with gas cartridges can can be found in the table below:
BLOG | Safe barbecue on gas
A gas barbecue works on butane, propane or a mixture of these two types of gas. The difference is the boiling point; the temperature at which it changes from liquid to gas and vice versa. At a lower temperature, gas becomes liquid and therefore unusable for your barbecue. With butane this boiling point is around 0°C and with propane at about -42°C. Butane is therefore unusable for a winter barbecue or when used high in the mountains. Butane gas, on the other hand, is cheaper than propane and gives off more combustion heat.
After use, you can dispose of your empty gas can or cartridge with the residual waste in the gray container or hand it in as scrap iron at the recycling center in your area.
The PowerPak is secured against leaking. When the gas valve of the PowerPak is opened while not being attached to a barbecue, it automatically blocks the gas flow. The PowerPak has to be reset (outdoors);
NOTE: Before the gas valve on the PowerPak is opened it must be connected to a device.
As long as the bottle/cartridge and the tap/connector look good, no rust on the bottle/cartridge or corrosion of the copper, it is good to use them
