2.2. Ensure safety
> Only operate the product properly, for its intended purpose and
within the parameters specified in the technical data. Do not
use any force.
> Do not operate the instrument if there are signs of damage at
the housing, mains unit or feed lines.
> Do not perform contact measurements on non-insulated, live
parts.
> Do not store the product together with solvents. Do not use any
desiccants.
> Carry out only the maintenance and repair work on this
instrument that is described in the documentation. Follow the
prescribed steps exactly. Use only original spare parts from
Testo.
> Any further or additional work must only be carried out by
authorised personnel. Testo will otherwise refuse to accept
responsibility for the proper functioning of the measuring
instrument after repair and for the validity of certifications.

2 Safety and the environment

> Only use the device in closed, dry rooms and protect it from rain
and moisture.
> Temperatures given on probes/sensors relate only to the
measuring range of the sensors. Do not expose handles and
feed lines to any temperatures in excess of 70 °C unless they
are expressly permitted for higher temperatures.
> The objects to be measured or the measurement environment
may also pose risks: Note the safety regulations valid in your
area when performing the measurements.
For products with Bluetooth®(optional)
Changes or modifications that have been made without the explicit
consent of the responsible approval authority, may cause the
retraction of the type approval.
Data transfer may be disturbed by equipment that uses the same
ISM-band, e.g. WLAN, microwave ovens, ZigBee.
The use of radio communication links is not permitted, among
others, in aeroplanes and hospitals. For this reason the following
points must be ensured before entering:
> Switch off the device:
> Isolate the device from any external power sources (mains
cable, external rechargeable batteries, ...).
2.3. Protecting the environment
> Dispose of faulty rechargeable batteries/spent batteries in
accordance with the valid legal specifications.
> At the end of its useful life, send the product to the separate
collection for electric and electronic devices (observe local
regulations) or return the product to Testo for disposal.

3.1. Use
The testo 320 is a handheld measuring device for the professional
flue gas analysis of combustion plants:
• Small combustion plants (burning oil, gas, wood, coal)
• Low-temperature and condensing boilers
• Gas water heaters
These systems can be adjusted using the testo 320 and checked
for compliance with the applicable limit values.
The following tasks can also be carried out with the testo 320:
• Regulating the O2, CO and CO2 values in combustion plants
for the purpose of ensuring optimal operation.
• Draught measurement.
• Measuring and regulating the gas flow pressure in gas water
heaters.
• Measuring and optimising the flow and return temperatures of
heating systems.
• Ambient CO measurement (only possible with additional
ambient CO probe 0632 3331).
• Ambient CO measurement (only possible with additional
ambient CO probe 0632 1240).
• Detection of CH4 (methane) and C3H8 (propane) (only possible
with additional gas leak probe 0632 3370).
testo 320-S must not be used:
• as a safety (alarm) instrument
The Bluetooth®option may only be operated in countries in which it
is type approved.
