Preparing for measurement
Connecting probes/sensors
The instrument needs to detect which probes or sensors are connected, before
switch on. If you fail to do this simply turn off instrument connect probe and
re-start unit.
➣Connecting the probes:
❯Insert the connector into the flue gas
socket and lock by turning it clockwise
gently (bayonet lock).
There must be no more than one extension
lead (0554 1201) between the measuring
instrument and the flue gas probe.
➣Connecting the sensor:
If no ambient air temperature sensor is connected, the temperature
measured by the thermocouple of the flue gas probe during the zeroing
phase is used as the ambient air temperature. All dependent parameters
are calculated using this value. This method of measuring ambient air
temperature is sufficient for systems dependent on ambient air. However,
ensure that the flue gas probe is near the intake duct of the burner during
the zeroing phase.
If an ambient air temperature sensor is connected, the ambient air
temperature is measured continuously by this sensor.
❯Insert the connector of the sensor into the sensor socket.
Using the flue gas probe
➣Checking the thermocouple:
The thermocouple of the flue gas probe must not lie against the probe cage.
❯Check before use. Bend the thermocouple
back if necessary.

Using the product 13
➣Aligning the flue gas probe:
The flue gas must be able to flow freely past the thermocouple.
❯Align the probe by turning it as required.
The tip of the probe must be in the centre of the flue gas flow.
❯Align the flue gas probe in the flue gas duct
so that the tip is in the centre of the flow
(area of the highest flue gas temperature).

Functions
1. Flue gas: flue gas measurement with flue gas probe and central measurement menu for
displaying/printing out all readings obtained from the various measuring functions.
2. Let by: timed measurement of differential pressure with differential pressure set (accessory).
3. tightness: timed measurement of differential pressure with differential pressure set (accessory).
4. Draught: flue draught measurement with flue gas probe and differential pressure measurement with
gas pressure set (accessory).
5. Smoke/Oild: enter smoke number/oil derivative (only available if a liquid fuel has been activated).
6. HCT: enter the heat carrier temperature.
7. Diff-press: measurement of differential pressure with differential pressure set (accessory).
8. Diff-temp: measurement of differential temperature with differential temperature set (accessory).
9. Ambient CO: timed measurement of ambient CO with flue gas probe.
Flue gas function: When the measuring cells are first called up after the
measuring instrument is switched on, they are zeroed (length of time: 30 s).
Exception: the Ambient CO function has already been started.
During the zeroing phase, the fuel can be selected. Any connected probe
must be in the open air during the zeroing phase!
Performing the measurement
➣Measuring:
✓The steps described in the chapter Preparing for measurement have
been completed.
Let by and tightness function: The Diff Press Kit (0554 1203) must be
connected.
Warning! Risk of explosion due to dangerous mixture of gases!
❯Make sure there are no leaks between the sampling point and the
measuring instrument.
❯Do not smoke or use naked flames during measurement.
Draught function: The pressure sensors are zeroed when the Draught
function is started (length of time: 5 s). The measuring instrument must
not be pressurised during zeroing!
To help position the flue gas probe in the centre of the flow (area of the

Using the product 15

highest flue gas temperature), the flue gas temperature measured is
shown graphically.
Do not measure for longer than 5 minutes, as the readings may fall
outside of the tolerances due to a possible drift of the pressure sensor.
Smoke/Oild function: Only available if a liquid fuel has been activated.
Diff-temp. function: The differential temperature set (0554 1208)
must be connected. The ambient air sensor must be unplugged (located
bottom left of unit) before connecting the T1 sensor. Be aware that the
connector is a firm fit, when disconnecting.
The differential temperature is calculated from T1 - T2.
Diff-press function: The gas pressure set (0554 1203) must be connected.
The pressure sensors are zeroed when the Diff.-press function is started
(length of time: 5 s). The measuring instrument must not be pressurised
during zeroing!
Do not measure for longer than 5 min, as a drift of the pressure sensor
may result in readings outside the tolerance limits.
Ambient CO: When the measuring cells are first started after the measuring
instrument is switched on, they are zeroed (length of time: 30 s).
Exception: The Flue gas function has already been called up.
Any connected probe must be in the open air during the zeroing phase!

Maintaining the product
Condensate trap
The fill level of the condensate trap can be read from the markings on the
condensate trap.
➣Emptying the condensate trap
Flue Gas condensate consists of a weak mix of acids. Avoid contact with the
skin. Make sure that the condensate does not run over the housing.
Caution! Failure to empty the condensate trap when the fill level is
reached results in condensate entering the sensors and pump. This
voids the warranty and results in costly repairs and replacements.
❯Do not empty the condensate trap while the flue gas pump is in operation!
1Keep measuring instrument in an upright
position (condensate outlet pointing upwards).
2Open the condensate outlet on the
condensate trap: pull out approx. 7 mm to
the stop.
3Let the condensate run out into a sink.
4Mop up any remaining drops on the
condensate outlet using a cloth.
5Close the condensate outlet.
The condensate outlet must be completely
closed, otherwise measuring errors could occur if external air gets in. It is
advisable to empty water trap at regular intervals, (preferably daily).

Maintaining the product20
Particle filter
➣Checking the particle filter:
❯Check the particle filter of the flue gas
probe for contamination at regular intervals:
check visually by looking through the
window of the filter chamber. Replace the
filter if there are signs of contamination.
➣Replacing the particle filter:
The filter chamber may contain condensate.
1Open the filter chamber by turning it gently
anticlockwise.
2Remove spent filter and fit new filter
(0554 3385).
3Fit the filter chamber and lock it by turning
it gently clockwise.
Housing
➢Cleaning the housing:
❯Clean the housing with a damp cloth (soap suds) if it is dirty. Do not use
aggressive cleaning agents or solvents!
Rech. batt.
➣Rechargeable battery care:
❯If possible, always discharge the rechargeable battery fully before
recharging it.
❯Do not store the rechargeable battery for long periods when discharged.
The best storage conditions are at 50 - 80 % charge level and 10 - 20 °C
ambient temperature; charge fully before further use.
