ABSTRACT:
In accordance with the method and the device according to the invention, previous pure pyrotechnic primers for initiating the ignition charges (6a,6b) of the oxygen lance igniters (13) are replaced by a small quantity of powdered zirconium (7). Zirconium is pyrophoric and therefore ignites, providing it has a sufficiently large surface area, in the presence of a sufficient quantity of pure oxygen, although in ordinary air it is no more flammable than ordinary wood.
