1. Overview

for use with:

Fyrite INSIGHT Plus Combustion Analyzer

Fyrite InTech

Combustion Analyzer

Thank you for investing in the Bacharach CO Appliance Kit. The kit is to be used in
conjunction with the Fyrite



INSIGHT Plus combustion analyzer, Fyrite InTech

combustion analyzer, and the Monoxor Plus carbon monoxide analyzer.

Figure 1. Bacharach Analyzers with CO Appliance Kit

The kit consists of two interchangeable probes and a tubing assembly. The special
probes included in the kit are used in place of the probe assembly that is supplied with
your Bacharach combustion analyzer, and are designed to standardize the measurement
process and normalize readings of CO gas from common appliances when adhering to
European standard EN7967.

IMPORTANT: The CO Appliance Kit is to be used only with the Bacharach
Monoxor® Plus CO analyzer and Bacharach combustion analyzers configured
to use Siegert combustion equations. Refer to your instrument’s instruction
manual for complete operation instructions.

2. Safety

Be sure to read, understand, and follow all safety warnings listed below and included
with your combustion analyzer.

WARNING: The Bacharach combustion analyzer is not intended to be used as
a safety device.

CAUTION:

CAUTION: When the instrument is used in an inefficient oil-fueled appliance

WARNING: When testing an appliance, a full visual inspection of the

appliance should be performed to ensure its safe operation.

The Bacharach analyzer is not intended to be used on a

continuous basis.

CAUTION: Do not store instrument or its sensors with solvents or products
that contain solvents.

HAZARDOUS AREA WARNING: The Bacharach instrument has not been
designed to be intrinsically safe for use in areas classified as hazardous
locations. For your safety,

CAUTION: Do not use flammable or combustible substances (like carburetor
fluid used for cleaning the probe) near an open flame.

where there is a high emission of soot, the probe’s sample filter may become
clogged. Before every use check the filter to confirm it is clean. If not,
replace it with a new filter.

To prevent soot intake and a clogged filter, a smoke test should be performed
before operating under such conditions. This ensures that the furnace or
boiler is burning at a level appropriate for the use of this instrument.

When the CO

level exceeds the allowable threshold, a warning will prompt

2

the user to consider performing a smoke test. This screen is cleared by
pressing the ENTER button. Once the warning is cleared, it will not be
displayed again for that particular test. If a new test is started (by pressing
the HOLD button), the warning will be displayed again if the limit has been
exceeded.

DO NOT use it in hazardous (classified) locations.

4. Overview of Standard EN7967

IMPORTANT: The CO Appliance Kit (P/N 0024-8555) is intended to be used in

accordance with the carbon monoxide standard EN7967 which provides
specific guidelines for identifying and managing sources of hazardous
combustion byproducts. Be sure to read, understand, and follow those
guidelines when using your combustion analyzer with the CO Appliance Kit.

The EN7967 standard provides information on:

• identifying and managing sources of fumes, smells, spills, and leaks of
combustion products

• CO detector activation

• using portable CO gas analyzers

• determining combustion performance

• response guidelines based on measurements (e.g., CO/CO

ratios).

2

Refer to the EN7967 standard for detailed flowcharts and guidelines on how to safely
diagnose appliance problems and potential CO leaks. Use the CO Appliance Kit and your
Bacharach combustion analyzer to monitor CO levels as described in the standard.

5. Instrument Configuration and Testing Procedure

Follow the steps below and the instructions in your combustion analyzer manual in
preparation of appliance testing.

Step Description

1 Refer to appropriate manual for the combustion instrument you are using.

3 Check the probe’s filter for signs of soot and/or moisture. Replace if

necessary.

4 Attach the desired probe to the probe handle. Attach the probe tubing to

the GAS inlet on the bottom of the instrument. Use the female gas
connector to attach to the INSIGHT

NOTE: The first screen will show a “T-STK” error as the
thermocouple is not used in this test. Press the “ENTER” button
to step past this screen.

5 Power on the analyzer and wait while it initializes. Follow the instructions

provided in your analyzer’s instruction manual.

6 If using either the InTech® or INSIGHT® Plus c ombustion analyzer, confirm

that your analyzer is configured for Siegert combustion equations. (Go to
the COMBUSTION EQ
information.)

7 When instructed to perform a CO test based on EN7967 procedures, place

the CO appliance probe as instructed in EN7967.

8 Navigate to the CO AMBIENT TESTING option of the analyzer’s MAIN MENU.

9 Follow the on-screen instructions to begin the CO testing.

10 After the testing is complete, analysis results will be displayed.

11 Review the results based on the criteria set forth in EN7967.

12 Make appliance and/or installation corrections, then re-test as required.
