    Depending on your options these parameters are measured or calculated: ● Oxygen (O2) ● Nitric Oxide (NO) ● Nitrogen oxides (NOx) ● CO/CO2 ratio ● Combustion Efficiency ● Losses ● Excess Air ● Differential Pressure ● Differential Temperature Your KANE458s has a protective rubber cover with magnets for “hands-free” operation and is supplied with a flue probe with integral temperature sensor and battery charger with 3 NiMH batteries. Your KANE458s has a low gas flow detector switching off the analyser pump if it detects water entering the analyser from an overfilled water trap. Your KANE458s has a large 6 line display showing data & test reports based on your actions. The display’s bottom line also highlights analyser status at all times. Your KANE458s can print test reports to an optional infra-red printer or wirelessly transfer them to KANE’s Apps. Your KANE458s stores up to 45 logs of any combination of Combustion, AUX, Temperature & Pressure test results. 25 Tightness Tests,25 Commissioning tests & 25 Room CO tests You can add 2 lines of 16 characters to your test results header. KANE LINK wirelessly connects optional KANE LINK devices to your analyser. 4 KANE 458s MANUAL...

  • Page 9: Batteries

    BATTERIES BATTERY TYPE This analyser uses rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries - Using other battery types may void your analyser warranty. WARNING Although you can use Alkaline batteries you must not charge your analyser with Alkaline batteries fitted. Do not mix NiMH cells of different capacities or from different manufacturers - All batteries must be identical. REPLACING BATTERIES Turn over your analyser & remove its protective rubber cover to find trhe battery compartment & fit 3 NiMH “AA” rechargeable batteries ensuring they are fitted with correct battery polarity. Replace battery cover & protective rubber cover. TIME AND DATE After changing batteries reset your analyser time & date. CHARGING NIMH BATTERIES Your analyser uses a standard Micro USB connector - For best results turn it off then connect your charger. The charging indicator will illuminate and turn off when the need for charge is over. Your first charge should be for 8 hours - Thereafter NiMH batteries can be “topped up” at any time, even for short periods. If your batteries discharge and your analyser enters a low power shutdown, 1 hour’s charge provides approx 2 hours continuous use. BATTERY DISPOSAL Always dispose of depleted batteries using approved disposal methods that protect the environment. KANE 458s MANUAL...
  • Page 10: General Safety

    SAFETY WARNING This analyser extracts combustion gases that may be toxic in relativity low concentrations. These gases are exhausted from the bottom of the analyser. This analyser must only be used in well-ventilated locations by trained and competent persons after due consideration of all the potential hazards. Portable gas detectors users should conduct “bump” tests before relying on units to verify atmospheres are free from hazard. A “bump” test is a way to check an instrument works within acceptable limits by briefly exposing it to known gas mixtures to change the output of all sensors present. Note: This is different from a calibration where the instrument is also exposed to known gas mixtures but allowed to settle to a steady figure with readings adjusted to the stated gas concentration of the test gas. Protection Against Electric Shock (In accordance with EN 61010-1: 2010): This analyser is designed as Class III equipment and should only be connected to SELV circuits. The battery charger is designated as: ● Class II equipment ● Installation category II ● Pollution degree 2 ● Indoor use only ● Altitude to 2000m ● Ambient temperature 0°C-40°C ● Maximum relative humidity 80% for temperatures up to 31°C decreasing linearly to 50%RH at 40°C ● Mains supply fluctuations not to exceed 10% of the nominal voltage 10 KANE 458s MANUAL...

  • Page 22: Pressure Measurement Good Practice

    Before using your analyser to measure an appliance gas/air ratio valve, read the appliance manufacturer instructions thoroughly. If in doubt contact the appliance manufacturer. After adjusting a gas/air ratio valve it is essential CO, CO₂ & CO/CO₂ ratio readings are within appliance manufacturer specified limits. LARGE BORE TUBING ISSUES If using large bore tubing when performing pressure tests: Push orange tube over rim of spigot to ensure a gas tight seal. This may not produce a gas tight seal. TESTS COMMISSIONING TEST Your analyser commissioning test uses the test outlined in the UK’s TB143 but is not a substitute for an appliance manufacturer instructions. Rotate dial to COM TEST position. Press followed by & follow your analyser instructions. TEST 1 – CHECK THE APPLIANCE AT MAX GAS RATE Switch on appliance to max rate & zero your analyser in outside fresh air. Once stable at the appliance maximum gas flow rate, insert your flue probe into the flue’s air inlet to measure CO2 levels - Readings must be stable & greater or equal to 0.20%. 22 KANE 458s MANUAL...
  • Page 23: Test 2

    TEST 2 Insert your flue probe into the appliance exhaust outlet to measure CO, CO₂ & RATIO levels – these must be within manufacturer instructions. If manufacturer instructions are not available CO must be under 350ppm & RATIO under 0.0040. TEST 3 – CHECK APPLIANCE AT MINIMUM GAS FLOW RATE WHERE POSSIBLE Select NEXT on status bar using The appliance is stable at minimum gas rate, measure CO, CO₂ & RATIO levels – these must be within the manufacturer instructions. If manufacture instructions are not available, CO must be under 350ppm & RATIO under 0.0040. To finish press . To continue next press followed by TEST 4 – MEASURE APPLIANCE FLOW & RETURN TEMPERATURES All measured readings are logged & can be printed to our optional KANE IRP-2 printer or wirelessly to our KANE Apps.

Electronic devices that become really cold, by being left in a vehicle overnight, suffer when taken into a warm room the next morning. Condensation may form which can affect the analyser performance & cause permanent damage. Electrochemical sensors used in flue gas anlysers can be affected by condensation or water being sucked into the analyser, as the small apertures on top of sensors can become blocked with water, stopping sensors seeing flue gas. When this happens, oxygen or carbon dioxide reading will display as “—” & sensors may be permanently damaged. If you think that your analyser is affected by condensation or water ingress, it may be possible to rectify the problem yourself. Simple leave the analyser running in a warm place, with the pump ‘ON’ sampling fresh air for a few hours (use mains adapter/battery charger if needed). If, after doing this, you still experience problems please contact our Service Centres. KANE 458s MANUAL...
