Delta Elite - 4-Port Torch w/ Compressed Air Option - GTT
Details
GTT's instructional DVD is now available to view at www.glasstorchtech.com and will no longer be included with torches.
The Delta Elite torch is a 2 stage torch that uses the powerful Lynx 7 Jet for the center fire and 3 rings of jets with a total of 50 jets for the outer fire. This completely surface mix torch uses the patented Triple Mix technology and 57 total jets to provide unparalleled power for all types of glass.
The Delta Elite is great for soft or hard glass with the ability to produce many flame types from a soft bushy flame to a hard driving flame. The flame chemistry that is achieved with the Triple Mix technology has a wide range including a fuel rich reduction flame, a neutral flame, an oxygen rich oxidizing flame, and an over-oxidizing flame. These flame types make any type, color or effect of glass easy to work and manipulate.
The Delta Elite comes standard with a 4 stud manifold that allows for the most flexibility for any setup to be run. The primary use is for a foot pedal to be used to turn the outer fire on and off with the outer fire valves preset to the desired setting. Also the 4 stud can make use of different oxygen sources such as a concentrator on the center fire and tanked oxygen on the outer fire. In this situation the fuel will be "Y"ed together at the torch for simplicity. A foot pedal is NOT required for a 4 stud torch, the hoses can be "Y"ed back together to use a single fuel source and a single oxygen source with the option to use a foot pedal in the future.
The Delta Elite comes with 1' of 3/16" hose and adaptors with filter screens to adapt to standard 1/4" ID grade "T" hose on each stud. The adaptors have a barb that the 1/4" ID grade "T" hose slides over and is clamped securely. The Delta Elite comes standard with a purple manifold, red, blue and green valve caps and rack and pinion adjustment. It is mounted on a powder coated base that has holes for securing the base to the work table. Also included are complete instructions and a cleaning kit.
-----------------------
Compressed Air Injection Technology injects compressed air directly into the fuel system of the torch. By precisely controlling the ratio of fuel and compressed air, the temperature of the flame can be controlled while maintaining flame chemistry and flame type. From the cooler, driving flame to the wide, bushy cool flame, any combination is now possible. Thin hollow work is now easier and more controllable than ever before. Colors that are tough to work become easier than ever before and appear sharper and true to form. And if that’s not enough, this step up is foot pedal ready! Now, not only can each stage of the torch be individually controlled, but each stage of compressed air injection can now be controlled with a foot pedal.
Triple Mix Technology combined with Compressed Air Technology adds a new dimension to the flame characteristics that no other torch on the market can achieve. GTT Compressed Air Systems encompass everything GTT is known for: Quality, Safety, Versatility, Outstanding Engineering and Unsurpassed Functionality.

Compressed air is worth it!!!
by Ben Nance
This is the largest GTT I've every used or owned. Largest torch I've had period. I swear this torch can operate at near 80psi o2 and possibly still have more potential with more pressure. I've ran it at 40-60psi on the oxygen side and the second stage still appears to have more flame capability than even 60psi oxygen can produce. The compressed air is amazing! Some of the color or materials like dichro tubing and other sensitive colors and materials take longer to work but the end result is so much cleaner.
