My old man helped a mate out moving a load of stuff from his garage. This was left behind and his mate had no idea what it was so said he could keep it and sell it / weigh it in for scrap.

It looks pretty hefty and from what I can see and a bit of research it appears like an industrial 'burner'. I don't really know what the applications are for this thing but it appears in very good (if not new and unused) condition and almost too good to scrap.

I stuck it on eBay for him but got no bites but don't really want to scrap it if its worth something to someone (and some beer money to the old man). Im sure there must be specialist places for this stuff but I can't find any! Any help in selling it can be rewarded!

I suspect that it's of little use outside of a manufacturing plant and given that its a gas appliance, no one is going to buy it for that without proper provenance and service records.

The manufacturer went tits last year - but their website is on the wayback machine.

I'm guessing from the model number that you have a VJ15... The datasheet PDFs aren't archived, but this gives you a hint.

Top googling matey!

Perhaps the OP fancies throwing a few pots or opening a pet crematorium.

For some reason this won't let me upload many pics but have edited the original post to do what I can!
