The testo 300 NEXT LEVEL is a measuring instrument which enables the
professional flue gas analysis of combustion systems, such as
•small combustion plants (oil, gas, wood, coal)
•low-temperature and condensing boilers
•gas heaters.
Using the instrument, these systems can be adjusted and checked for
compliance with the applicable limit values.
The instrument has been verified as a short-term measuring instrument and
should not be used as a safety (alarm) device. It is intended for indoor use only.
The following tasks can also be carried out using the instrument:
•Regulating the O2, CO and CO2, NO, NOxvalues in combustion plants to
ensure optimum operation.
•Draught measurement.
•4Pa measurement.
•Measuring and regulating the gas flow pressure in gas heaters.
•Measuring and optimising the flow and return temperatures of heating
systems.
•Measuring the CO concentration in the ambient air.
•The instrument can be used for measurements on CHP plants in accordance
with the first German Federal Immission Control Ordinance (BImSchV).
•In principle, the CO sensor can also be used for measurements on CHP
plants. If you carry out more than 50 measurements on CHP plants per year,
please contact your nearest Testo service centre or send the instrument to
Testo Service for checking.
An NOxfilter for the CO sensor can be ordered as a spare part to replace a used
filter.

6.1 Mains unit / energy storage unit
The measuring instrument is supplied with an energy storage unit.
Fully charge the energy storage unit before using the measuring
instrument.
If the measuring instrument is completely discharged, charge it for at
least 30 minutes before turning the meter on and using it again.
If the mains unit is connected, the measuring instrument is
automatically powered via the mains unit.
Only charge the energy storage unit at an ambient temperature of 0 to
35°C.
6.1.1 Charging the energy storage unit
1
Connect the instrument plug of the mains unit to the mains unit socket
on the measuring instrument.
2
Plug the mains plug of the mains unit into a mains socket.

The charging process will start. LED in the condensate trap will flash.

The charging process will stop automatically when the energy storage
unit is fully charged.
If the energy storage unit is fully drained, the charging time at room
temperature is approx. 5-6 hours. LED in the condensate trap lights up
continuously in red.
