This Guide provides basic information about how
to turn ON the analyzer and conduct a combustion
efciency test. Detailed information concerning
the analyzer’s operation, set up, and calibration is
contained in Instruction 24‑9428.
Turning ON the Analyzer
1. Place the probe tip in the area that contains
the burner’s combustion‑air source. This
step allows the analyzer to measure the
combustion‑air temperature during the
analyzer’s warm‑up period.
2. Press analyzer’s I/O button.
3. Wait for the analyzer to complete its
60 second warm‑up period.
Performing a Combustion Test
4. Press the or button to select the desired
fuel and then press ENTER. The fuel codes are:
F1 = Natural Gas F3 = LPG
F2 = Oil #2 F4 = Kerosene
Example: “F1” denotes
Natural Gas
Sampling Locations
Insert the probe in the areas shown in the
following illustrations to measure stack
temperature, ue‑gas O2 content, and ue‑gas CO
content (Model 60 only).
Water Trap / Filter Maintenance
Drain the water condensate collected in the water
trap after every test.
Replace the lter element (P/N 07‑1644) when dirty.

5. Press the or button to display the “Stack
Temperature & Efciency” Screen.
6. Insert probe into the burner’s ue‑gas stream
(see Sampling Locations on Pages 5 and 6).
7. Burner‑service procedures can now begin.
The readings diplayed on the analyzer will
update continuously, showing the changes in
burner performance.
8. Use the and buttons to scroll through the
analyzer’s other screen displays while a test is
in progress. (The order in which the screens
are displayed is shown on Pages 3 and 4.)
9. Press the HOLD button to stop the pump and
freeze all readings. Press ENTER to resume
testing.
Ending a Combustion Test
WARNING! Burn hazard. Do not touch
the probe after removing it from the ue-gas
stream. Allow the probe to cool before han-
dling (about 5 minues).
10. End a test by rst removing the probe from
the ue‑gas stream, and then allowing the
pump to run until the O2 reading reaches
approximately 20.9%.
Turning OFF the Analyzer
11. Turn OFF the analyzer by pressing the I/O
button. There is a 5‑second delay before the
analyzer actually turns OFF, during which
time the unit can be turned back ON by
pressing the ENTER button.
A Fyrite Tech 60 will not turn OFF if a high
level of CO is still being detected. The pump
will remain running and the message “PurG
CO” is displayed until the detected CO level
drops below 50 ppm. This purge process can be
bypassed by again pressing the I/O button.
