Introduction

The KM900CO/P is designed for commercial and light industrial
c o n t r actors and technicians. Includes seven preprogrammed fuels with
two positions for user-specified fuels. With 150 memory locations, tests ca n
be stored and downloaded to the optional IR printer through the infra r e d
port or to a PC through the RS 2 32 port utilizing the optional Firew o r k s ™
s o f tware package. The unit comes complete with a large ca r ryi ng case,
12” 1200˚F probe and battery charger.

Features include

• Measures O2 and CO

• Calculates CO2, efficiency and excess air

• 0 to 10,000 ppm H2 compensated CO sensor

• Large 4 line display

• Long life rechargeable battery

• Large cordura case

• 150 memory positions

• Upgrades available include NOx, SO2and Draft

Safety Notes

Before using this instrument, read all safety information carefully. In
this manual the word "WARNING" is used to indicate conditions
or actions that may pose physical hazards to the user. The word
"CAUTION" is used to indicate conditions or actions that may
damage this instrument.

WARNING!

Exceeding the specified limits of this instrument is dangerous and can
expose the user to serious or possibly fatal injury.

WARNING!

This analyzer extracts combustion gases that may be toxic in relatively
low concentrations. These gases are exhausted from the side of the
instrument. This instrument must only be used in well ventilated
locations. It must only be used by trained and competent persons after
due consideration of all the potential hazards.

WARNING!

This instrument is designed as Class III equipment and should only be
connected to SELV circuits. Protection against elctrical shock in accor­dance with EN 61010-1 : 1993.

The battery charger is designated as:

Class II equipment
Installation category II
Pollution degree 2
Indoor use only
Altitude to 2000m
Ambient temperature 0˚ to 40˚C
Maximum relative humidity 80% for temperatures up to 31˚C linearly
to 50% RH at 40˚C
Mains supply functions no to exceed 10% of the nominal voltage.

The calibration time will count down in seconds to zero. Calibration
time may be changed from 2 to 6 minutes. See SET-UP MENU section.

NOTE: Three minutes is recommended to allow the sensors to stabilize
fully. Anything less than this may result in drift of the toxic and oxygen
sensors in clean ambient air.

To obtain the quoted specification the instrument should be calibrated
with clean ambient air at standard temperature and pressure (STP).

Once the time has reached zero, an audible beep will be heard and will
show the selected fuel on the following display:

Press “ “. This zeros the toxic sensor and sets Oxygen to 20.9%. The
next screen is the MAIN DISPLAY of the analyzer.

Use “ “ and “ “ to change the display.

All parameters are detailed in the glossary.

Main Displays

The main display can be changed to show either 4 or 8 parameters at
one time. Two options are available when 4 parameters are selected.

• 4 Page Mode: Displays 4 lines of data in set format, each
page is predefined.

• Line Scroll Mode: Allows you to customize the display to
show the data you require.

• 8 Page Mode: Displays 8 parameters on 4 line in set format,
the bottom two can be changed.

Changing between the different modes is detailed under Display

Operating Instructions

If you are using this instrument for the very first time be sure to charge
the battery for a period of 12 hours.

Before every use, check for the following:

• The particle filter is not dirty

• The water trap and probe line are empty of water

• All hose connections are properly connected

• The probe is sampling clean ambient air

• The water trap is correctly fitted and the instrument is upright

• The flue temperature is connected

Automatic Calibration

Turn on instrument. During this sequence the analyzer pumps fresh air
into the sensors to allow toxic sensors (if fitted) to be set to zero and
the Oxygen sensor to be set to 20.9%.

After switching on the analyzer, it will briefly display header information:

It will then show the count-down screen:

Sampling The Flue Gas

Once the automatic calibration procedure has been completed and the
specific fuel has been selected the probe can be inserted into the
desired sampling point.

It is recommended that the sampling point be located at least two
diameters downstream of any bend and that the probe tip is in the
center of the flue. With balanced flue and other domestic units the
probe should be positioned far enough into the flue so that no air can
“back flush” into the probe. This will be indicated by a low oxygen
reading and/or a low “Poison Index” reading. (Fig 1).

The probe depth stop cone provided with the instrument allows the
probe to be used in holes whose diameters range from 8 mm to 21 mm
(5/16 to 13/16 inch).

The standard probe is rated at 1200˚F. Temperature of up to 2012˚F
(1100˚C) can be accommodated using an optional high temperature
probe.

NOTE: To conserve battery power, switch off the pump when you are
not taking a measurement. Use the “ “ key to turn “ON” and
“OFF” the pump.
