Standard 2045 Pressure Lantern

  • Hi all,


    Here's a picture of the Standard 2045 lantern I've got, and I'm just wondering if anyone would be able to tell me more about it.
    Alan from Pressure Lamps Unlimited helped me out a bit allready...we know it's pre 2nd WW...that there are different one's of the type with or without a collar between the tank and glass holder or base plate...(this one is a collar-less type)
    The lamp was made by Standard Licht Gesellschaft m.b.H.Frankfurt am Main Alan says...

    Any (scanned) documentation, photo's or user manuals would be a good starting point to plot the history of this lantern...


    Thanks, Ive

    Cheers!

  • Thanks Orthotiger!


    I can read German a little bit, the website is very informative, and the info given wil sure let my Standard 2045 shine some light again...
    It's also good to see another collar less type...


    Thanks again, more info still welcome!

    Cheers!

  • Hi all,


    Today my dad and I got the Standard 2045 going, here's a picture...

    After a minute, the burning proccess was stoped when I noticed a minor leakage at the main control wheel...This was the best action regarding the fact that the lantern works on petrol (Benzine) instead of petroleum...
    When this is solved I'll take some more pictures :D ( that will be next year ;) )


    All tha best,


    Ive

    Cheers!

  • Hi Toothless,
    it looks fine :respekt: you are aproaching the target. I wish you a lot of luck for solving the problem.

  • The Standard 2045 trouble is not solved yet because of the Tilley FL6 getting into action...more later then...
    I'll get back with pictures when all is settled down :prost:

    Cheers!
