    SAFETY WARNING This analyser extracts combustion gases that may be toxic in relatively low concentrations. These gases are exhausted from the back of the instrument. This analyser must only be used in well-ventilated locations by trained and competent persons after due consideration of all the potential hazards.

    During this sequence the analyser pumps fresh air into the sensors to allow toxic sensors (if fitted) to be set to zero and the Oxygen sensor to be set to 20.9 %. After switch-on the analyser will briefly display header information :- Kane International KANE905 SW19604 Version: 1.02...

  • Page 15: Sampling The Flue Gas

    SAMPLING THE FLUE GAS Once the automatic calibration procedure has been completed and the specific fuel has been selected (See SELECT menu) 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 centre of the flue.

TAKING A FLOW READING In the UNITS menu set the pressure units to metres/sec (m/sec). These are the only units available for flow measurement.

     The in-line particle filter is clean and does not become blocked. NORMAL SHUTDOWN SEQUENCE DO THIS EVERY TIME YOU USE THE ANALYSER Remove the probe from the flue - TAKE CARE! THE PROBE WILL BE HOT - and allow it to cool naturally. Do not immerse the probe in water as this will be drawn into the analyser and damage the pump and sensors.

    PRESS.: Flue draught can be displayed in millibar (mbar), hectaPascals (hPa), millimeters water gauge (mmWG) or inches water gauge (in WG). EFF.: Efficiency can be selected for gross or net values. Gross efficiency assumes latent heat of vaporisation is lost in the boiler and hence will be lower than net efficiency.

    10. MAINTENANCE EMPTYING AND CLEANING THE IN-LINE WATER TRAP The in-line water trap should be checked and emptied on a regular basis. Water vapour will condense and gather in the probe line. This may move suddenly to the trap when the probe is moved. Care should be taken at all times.
  • Page 34: Problem Solving

    The following is a list of problems that may occur on the instrument through its operating life. If the cause of the fault is not easy to identify then we advise you contact Kane International Service Department or an International Distributor for expert advice.
  • Page 35: Annual Service & Re-Certify

    12. ANNUAL SERVICE & RE-CERTIFY Whilst the sensors have an expected life of more than two years in normal use it is recommended that the analyser is serviced and re-certified at least annually. This is so that long term drift on the sensors and electronics can be eliminated.

  • Page 42: Combustion Efficiency Calculation

    Since the fuel air mixture is never consistent there is the possibility of unburned/partially unburned fuel passing through the flue. This is represented by the unburned carbon loss. Losses due to combustible matter in ashes, riddlings, dust and grit, radiation, convection and conduction are not included. Efficiency Calculation: Known Data - Fuel: Qgr = Gross Calorific Value (kJ/kg) Qnet = Net Calorific Value (kJ/kg)
