Measuring Flue Gases - Kane 456 Manual

7. MEASURING FLUE GASES

After the countdown is finished and the analyser is correctly set up, put its flue probe
into the appliance's sampling point. The tip of the probe should be at the centre of the
flue. Use the flue probe's depth stop cone to set the position.
With balanced flues, make sure the probe is positioned far enough into the flue so no
air can 'back flush' into the probe.
NOTE: Ensure that the flue probe handle does not get hot!
Make sure you do not exceed the analyser's operating specifications. In particular:
o
• Do not exceed the flue probe's maximum temperature (600 C)
• Do not exceed the analyser's internal temperature operating range
• Do not put the analyser on a hot surface
• Do not exceed the water trap's levels
• Do not let the analyser's particle filter become dirty and blocked
View the displayed data to ensure that stable operating conditions have been achieved
and the readings are within the expected range.
Press and quickly release / to start the analyser printing. The analyser
displays a series of bars until this is completed. Press and release the key again to
abort printing.
Make sure the printer is switched on, ready to accept data and its infrared receiver is
in line with the analyser's emitter (on top of the analyser).
