Additional information:
Sprint Pro is designed to meet the requirements of
EN50379-1 and EN50379-3 and to support the work-
ing practices defined in Standard BS7967.
It is highly recommended that users are fully con-
versant with local regulations when using a flue gas
analyzer for servicing or installing a boiler system.
When performing any CO measurements ensure
the unit is zeroed in clean air. A suitable location
for sampling clean air will be outside of the build-
ing where the boiler system is installed, away from
exhaust vents.
Sprint Pro offers a timed let-by/tightness test.
If the Sprint Pro has not been used for more than
6 months it should be put on charge for at least 4
hours without use. This will allow the oxygen chan-
nel and if present the NO channel, to read correctly.
Failure to do this may cause the oxygen measure-
ment, the NO measurement and any calculations
depending upon them to be incorrect.
Magnets on the reverse of Sprint Pro can be used to
place the Sprint Pro in location on the boiler system
for easy hands-free operation.
Diagnostics and usage data from Sprint Pro is acces-
sible at service and can be viewed at service centers.
We reserve the right to update and enhance the soft-
ware at times of service without prior knowledge.
WARNING: Take care not to place items which may
be sensitive to strong magnetic fields near this mag-
net, e.g. credit cards or magnetic storage devices like
computer hard drives.

Probe connections
Flue gas analysis
Connect the flue probe to the flue sample inlet and the thermocouple to either
K-connector.
To measure flue draught pressure connect pressure tube to (-) pressure inlet.
Differential temperature test
Connect one (or two) thermocouple probes to the K-type connectors.
When using one probe, Sprint Pro will display a soft key option to switch
between T1 and T2 snapshot measuring points.
Note: When using (a) two thermocouples on metal pipes, or (b) any thermocouples
whilst the Sprint is on charge - electrically isolated thermocouples should be used.
Alternatively, cover the thermocouple contacts with plumbers tape to electrically isolate
the thermocouple contacts from the pipes.
Switch on and using the Menu
Press and hold the ON/OFF/ENTER key for two seconds.
Sprint Pro will emit a few rising beeps, display the
splash screen and then enter the Main Menu.
Use the soft keys to scroll, select and edit menu items
(see icon list – inside front cover). Press accept to
make a change or the ESC key to cancel. Press the ESC
key to return to the Main Menu.
Switch off
Note: Ensure flue probe is attached to Sprint Pro (including water trap and filters) prior
to following the switch off procedure and allow the sensor readings to return to their
ambient levels.

Turn off in clean air and allow Sprint Pro to complete purge cycle. Press and
hold the ON/OFF/ENTER button for approximately two seconds. The power off
screen will be displayed and the pump will run to purge the sensors. The pump
will run for up to 30 or 40 seconds to purge if gas is present. Sprint Pro will
normally switch off in 10 seconds. Press the ESC key to abort the switch off
sequence.
Charging battery
It is recommended that Sprint Pro is fully charged before first use.
Note: Sprint Pro’s battery must not be charged at temperatures below 32°F or above 140 °F.
1. Plug the USB charger into a mains socket.
2. Connect the charger to the Sprint Pro using the USB-C connector on
the unit.
3. Sprint Pro would normally be left switched off for charging. The
display will show the battery charging icon during charging. The
battery will recharge in three hours from flat and when fully charged
the battery icon will turn green in color.
Please see specification in section VII for Sprint Pro run times. A shorter charge
time can be applied, such as 1/2 hour, though it will give limited length of
operation from that charge.
Low battery
When the battery is low, Sprint Pro will display a low battery icon. If the battery
gets too low, then Sprint Pro will give further warning before switching off.
On a low battery alert, plug in the charger. If this cannot be done immediately
finish the test in progress and then place on charge as soon as possible.
Use of the charger as a power adaptor
The Sprint Pro charger can be used to power the unit and will continue to
charge whilst operating Sprint Pro.
