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.
Battery Indicator. The KANE905 has a rechargeable NiMh battery which uses a different Ensure the correct charger is charger than other Kane analysers. used or damage may occur to the instrument. Check that you have all the items you have ordered.
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...
To obtain the quoted specification an instrument should be calibrated with clean ambient air at standard temperature and pressure (STP). Once the time has reached zero an audible beep will be heard and NATURAL GAS will show the selected fuel on the following display:- * PRESS –...

LINE SCROLL MODE Line scroll mode allows you to customise the display. Use the keys to change the bottom line of the display. Once the correct line is displayed press to confirm and move the line up. Select the next parameter and repeat until all lines display the desired parameters.
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.
2.00 To perform a combustion test and display draught pressure at the same time a special probe is required. Contact Kane International or Authorised Distributor for details. 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.

level in the flue and hence dilute any toxic gas reading. Oxygen referencing gives readings as if they were undiluted. SMOKE: Allows the user to enter a smoke test number from 0-9. This value will be printed on the standard printout. Default value is OFF.
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.

The KANE905 can communicate with a PC and mobile devices. Compatibility with 2.1 for Android / PC. Please see the KANE905 software tab at: https://www.kane.co.uk/products/kane905-commercial-flue-gas-analyser Data can either be printed from a ‘live’ test or from stored data. Printing of stored data is detailed in STORING AND RETREIVING DATA.
8. STORING AND RETRIEVING DATA The KANE905 can store combustion tests. Once stored, the data can be viewed on the display or downloaded to a PC or printer. STORING A ‘LIVE’ TEST While performing a test and viewing the data on the MAIN display access the STORE menu as follows :- STORE MENU Press...

. You can now look at the first sample using the keys. The ‘*’s indicate that you are in the Average of Three mode and by the position of the ‘*’ which sample you are currently viewing. Press to pass to the next sample. Eventually you will be looking at the averages.
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.
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.
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.
APPENDICES A. MAIN DISPLAY PARAMETERS The parameters and their meanings are detailed as follows : - DATE: Analyser date. See SET UP MENU to change TIME: Analyser time.

Temperature measured by the optional inlet air probe. INLET: This probe is plugged into the instrument through the (Ti) RS232 socket. This figure is used to calculate the NET temperature instead of AMBIENT when fitted. AMBIENT: Temperature measured by the internal sensor, used in the NET temperature calculation if an INLET probe is not (Ta) fitted.

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.

C. CALCULATION OF FUEL DATA For any fuel not specified by Kane International the net calorific value, gross calorific value and composition should be obtained from the fuel supplier. The following fuel data has been calculated with reference to the efficiency calculation.
