Operation
4.5 Performing a Combustion Test
Ensure that the following has been completed, and then proceed with the
combustion test as described below:
• Turn ON analyzer and allow it to warm up (Section 4.2).
• Select fuel being burned (Section 4.3).
• Inset probe into stack (Section 4.4).
• If necessary, insert optional primary air thermocouple into combustion-
air stream of burners that use an outside source of combustion air.
1. Press the RUN/HOLD button to start the test.
You should hear the pump start running and
see the word RUN appear at the top of the
Combustion Test screen.
Sensor Indicators: The following indicators
appear in the sensor's data field depending on
certain conditions:
(∗ ∗ ∗) Sensor that is not calibrated or installed.
(XXX) Sensor overrange
(
- - -
) The calculated data cannot be displayed
because the measured data necessary to make the calculation is out of
range (i.e., oxygen level above 16%).
2. Use the up and down arrow keys to scroll to the T-STK reading.
Loosen the thumbscrew on probe stop and move probe in and out of
the stack until the stack’s core temperature (hot spot) is located as
indicated by the highest T-STK reading; then tighten thumbscrew to
prevent further probe movement. Locating the highest stack tempera-
ture is very important for accurate efficiency calculations.
3. You can now begin burner-service procedures. The analyzer readings
will change quickly to show changes in burner performance.
CAUTION: Position the Water Trap with its gas-flow arrow
pointing upward. Do not let water condensate go above the tip
of the riser tube. The sensors could be damaged if water would
enter the analyzer. Empty the Water Trap after every combus-
tion test (refer to Section 4.9)
4. Pressing the RUN/HOLD button freezes all readings, stops the pump and
displays the Combustion-Test HOLD screen. Press the ENT button to view
all test values at the moment the RUN/HOLD button was pressed. Press-
ing RUN/HOLD again restarts the pump and resumes testing.
