3Product description
The MULTILYZER®STe flue gas analysis computer is a multiple-
function analyser with integrated calculating functions. Measure-
ments are in accordance with the general regulations set forth by the
German “BImSchV” at all kinds of combustion plants within the
framework of the monitoring of exhaust systems.
The MULTILYZER®STe flue gas analysis computer has an infrared
printer interface, a Bluetooth®interface (Bluetooth®low energy) and
can be fitted with a memory card (MicroSD).
User-friendly, color-coded menus support improved and intuitive op-
eration. The individual measuring programs, configuration menus,
etc. are assigned distinctive colors.
The innovative measuring device doesn’t have a traditional key-
board. A state of the art „Touchpad“ technology with an almost wear-
free operation provides perfect user interface. The sensibility and
speed of the control panel is individually adjustable.

Pressure/draft
Piezo-resistive sensor with internal tem-
perature compensation
Measuring duration
Short-term, stable measurements of max.
60 minutes are possible, followed by a
new calibration phase with ambient air.
Flue gas measurement
Via an external water separator and filter,
the flue gas is supplied to the sensors by
means of a gas pump.
Sensor calibration
After switching on the instrument, there is
a calibration phase that takes 30 seconds
after a cold start.
CO Sensor protection
The standard CO sensor with dynamic H2
compensation is protected automatically
by separate flushing pump. When the
permissible concentration of CO is
reached (>4000 ppm), the additional CO
pump turns on and flushes the sensor
with fresh air. The measurement starts
again automatically when the CO concen-
tration drop below 1600 ppm.
Flue gas sampling
Flue gas sampling is done by means of a
probe which enables either a “one-point
measurement” (combi probe) or a “multi-
point measurement” (multi-hole probe).
WARNING
The life of the sensors depends essentially on utilization and
use of the instrument. The expected life of the gas sensors is
about 24 months.
