  • Page 5: K9206 Overview

    K9206 OVERVIEW The K9206 is broadly based on the KM9106 and while retaining many of its core features has been significantly enhanced. The most visible difference is the large graphical display on the handset. Up to 15 lines of text/data can be displayed. The handset links to the main analyzer unit using Bluetooth or the normal cable.

  • Page 30: Sampling The Flue Gas

    SAMPLING THE FLUE GAS Once the automatic calibration procedure has been completed and the specific fuel has been selected the probe can be inserted into the desired sampling point. It is recommended that the sampling point be located at least two flue diameters downstream of any bend and that the probe tip is in the center of the flue (this is normally the point of the hottest temperature).
  • Page 31: Kmdm220 Gas Conditioning Module

    KMDM220 GAS CONDITIONING MODULE This module is fitted in the front compartment of a standard K9206 carry case and comprises a Peltier fan cooled chiller assembly, a peristaltic pump to automatically remove condensate, the control electronics and a power supply module. The module is supported on an aluminum alloy chassis.
  • Page 32: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE EMPTYING AND CLEANING THE IN-LINE WATER TRAP The water trap should be checked and emptied on a regular basis. Water vapor will condense in the probe line, which may cause the water trap to fill beyond the maximum level mark. If this occurs water could be drawn into the analyzer causing damage.
  • Page 33: Charging The Battery

    CHARGING THE BATTERY It is important that the battery is charged on a regular basis. The instrument constantly powers the inter- nal sensors and may discharge the battery if left unattended for serveral months. Connect the charger supplied with the instrument to the correct mains supply. Note: The correct charger type may be required for your local voltage i.e.

  • Page 44: High Co Purge Operation

    HIGH CO PURGE OPERATION If there is a requirement to measure CO to concentrations above 10,000ppm then a High Purge module should be fitted (this comprises both a purge pump and a solenoid) in addition to the IR triple gas bench. When the electrochemical sensor’s reading passes 9800ppm the solenoid operates and the high purge pump switches on and pumps fresh air across the electrochemical CO sensor.
