Manual Ethanol Burner Cores

Three non-electric burner formats for custom fire features.

SEFB flip-cover, SEMB sliding-cover and SERB round burners create a real bioethanol flame without app control or electrical ignition. Each series has a different mechanism and geometry and should be specified separately.

SEFB Flip-Cover Linear Burner

Five long-format models from 24 to 72 inches.

SEFB is the larger-capacity manual linear range in the verified quotation source. A hinged flip cover controls the opening and helps extinguish the flame.

Quotation dimensions list a 190.5 mm body width and 101.6 mm body height. Confirm the current model drawing before cutting the opening.

SEMB Sliding-Cover Linear Burner

Six linear sizes with a lower 76.2 mm body height.

SEMB uses a sliding cover and covers smaller through long linear installations. It is separate from SEFB and has its own body dimensions, capacities and output values.

SERB Round Manual Burner

Circular manual burners for island and centerpiece designs.

SERB is the round manual family. The verified summary confirms 304 stainless steel, double-layer tank protection, ceramic-fiber filler, a damper design, capacities from 1.5 to 12 L and output of approximately 4.5 to 27 kW depending on model.

Evidence boundary: the available editorial source does not contain a complete model-by-model SERB table. Exact diameter, height, capacity and output must come from the current quotation rather than an inferred website table.

Selection Guide

Choose the mechanism and geometry before choosing the finish.

Choose SEFB flip cover

For a long linear opening where the larger verified capacities and the hinged cover format suit the firebox detail.

Choose SEMB sliding cover

For linear work requiring an 18-inch starting size or a lower verified body height.

Choose SERB round

For circular tables, island fires and custom centerpieces where a linear burner would conflict with the concept.

Choose smart ethanol instead

When the buyer requires electronic ignition, remote/app control or sensor-based monitoring. See smart ethanol fireplaces.

Before quotation: provide the firebox opening, burner length or diameter, viewing direction, finish, project country, quantity and desired runtime. Leave room for safe operation and the supplied extinguishing tool.

Operating Boundaries

Manual operation transfers more responsibility to the user.

Filling

Fill only when the burner is extinguished and fully cool. Never pour fuel onto a flame or hot burner.

Extinguishing

Use the supplied cover or damper tool. Do not improvise with water and do not touch hot metal.

Room conditions

Provide ventilation and follow local fire and building requirements. A ventless appliance is not permission to ignore room volume or occupancy conditions.

Construction

Use the approved model drawing for opening size, non-combustible surroundings, clearances and service access.

Technical FAQ

Questions to answer before ordering a manual burner.

Does it need electricity?

No. Ignition, flame control and extinguishing are manual.

Can it be refilled while operating?

No. Extinguish it and allow complete cooling before refilling.

SEFB or SEMB?

Compare the opening mechanism, verified body height, length range and capacity. Do not select only by the product photograph.

Can the burner heat a room?

It produces heat, but suitability depends on room conditions and local requirements. Do not treat output as a complete heating design.

Can it be built into a custom firebox?

Yes, when the firebox is designed around the exact burner drawing and required non-combustible construction.

Why is SERB not listed model by model?

The verified source available for this page contains only the family range. Publishing inferred rows would be less reliable than requiring the current quotation.
