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.
> 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 testo 330 LX must be checked before commissioning for
any visible damage. Do not commission the testo 330 LX if
there are signs of damage on the housing, mains unit or supply
lines. Electrical risk.

2 Safety and the environment
8
> Dangers may also arise from the systems being measured or
the measuring environment: Note the safety regulations valid in
your area when performing the measurements.
Use distilled water, or alternatively mild solvents such as
isopropanol to clean the flue gas analyzer. If using
isopropanol, please refer to the instruction leaflet for the
product. Isopropanol fumes have a slight narcotic effect,
and typically cause irritation of the eyes and sensitive
mucous membranes. When using it, please ensure that
there is adequate ventilation.
Do not store any objects that have come into contact with
solvents and/or degreasers (e.g. isopropanol) in the case.
Evaporating or leaking solvents and/or degreasers may
cause damage to the instrument and to the sensors.
The use of strong or harsh alcohol or brake cleaner can
result in damage to the instrument.
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.
> The button cell used in the instrument contains 1,2-
Dimethoxyethane (CAS 110-71-4). See EC Regulation No.
1907/2006 (REACH) Art. 33.

3.1. Use
The testo 330 LX is a handheld measuring device for the
professional flue gas analysis of furnace systems:
• Small furnaces (burning oil, gas, wood, coal)
The solid fuel measurement adapter (0600 9765) is
required for measurements on solid fuel systems. The
adapter protects the measuring instrument from harmful
substances (dust, organic compounds, etc.).
• Low-temperature and condensing boilers
• Gas water heaters
These systems can be adjusted using the testo 330 LX and
checked for compliance with the applicable limit values.
The following tasks can also be carried out with the testo 330 LX:
• Regulating the O2-, CO- and CO2-, NO-, NOx- values in
furnace systems 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.
• CO and CO2 environment measurement.
• Detection of CH4 (methane) and C3H8 (propane).
• The testo 330 LX can be used for measurements on CHP
stations in accordance with the first German Federal Immission
Control Ordinance (BImschV).
• In principal, the CO sensor can also be used for
measurements on CHP stations. If you should carry out
more than 50 measurements on CHP stations per year,
please contact your nearest testo service centre or send the
testo 330 for checking to testo Service.
A worn NOx filter of the CO sensor can be ordered as a
spare part (order no. 0554 4150) and replaced.
Testo guarantees the functionality of its products when

• as a safety (alarm) instrument
testo 330 LX with Bluetooth®option:
The use of the wireless module is subject to the
regulations and stipulations of the respective country of
use, and the module may only be used in countries for
which a country certification has been granted. The user
and every owner has the obligation to adhere to these
regulations and prerequisites for use, and

television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Caution
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Shielded interface cable must be
used in order to comply with the emission limits.
Warning
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
