    The testo 320 flue gas analyzer – facts and features

    The testo 320 flue analyzer comes with one sensor for O2 and additionally you can order a CO sensor (separate product). The flue gas analyzer then calculates the relevant flue gas values, i.e. CO2 value, efficiency and flue gas loss.
    There is also wide range of optional sensors for you to choose from. These include multiple-hole, edge crack and flexible flue gas sensors as well as an ultra-fine flue gas pressure sensor which allows you to perform draft and gas pressure measurements parallel to the other measurements.


    Areas of application for the testo 320 flue gas analyzer

    Six applications. One device:
    • flue gas measurements
    • flue draft measurements
    • gas flow and static gas pressure
    • gas leak detection
    • CO ambient air measurements
    • temperature difference measurements
    Allows you to monitor and check heating environments, radiators and burners easily and reliably.

    Measuring the flue gas parameters of the burner (CO, O2, and temperature, etc.)

    The flue gas measurement for a heating system helps to establish the pollutants released with the flue gas (e.g. carbon monoxide CO or carbon dioxide CO2) and the heating energy lost with the warm flue gas. In some countries, flue gas measurement is a legal requirement. It primarily has two objectives:

     

    • Ensuring the atmosphere is contaminated as little as possible by pollutants; and
    • energy is used as efficiently as possible.

     

    Stipulated pollutant quantities per flue gas volume and energy losses must never be exceeded. Measurement in terms of results required by law takes place during standard operation (every performance primarily using the appliance). Using a Lambda probe (single hole or multi-hole probe), the measurement is taken at the centre of flow in the connecting pipe (in the centre of the pipe cross-section, not at the edge) between the boiler and chimney/flue. The measured values are recorded by the flue gas analyzer and can be logged either for print out or transfer to a PC at a later stage.

    Measurement is taken by the installer at commissioning, and if necessary four weeks later by the flue gas inspector/chimney sweep, and then at regular intervals by the authorised service engineer.

    Measuring temperatures on radiators

    When measuring the temperature on radiators, the flow and return temperatures are recorded in particular and assessed by the tradesman. The flow temperature is defined as the temperature of a thermal transfer medium (e.g. water) that the system is supplied with. The temperature of the medium flowing out of the system is accordingly called the return temperature. To prevent losses within the heat distribution system and achieve a better level of efficiency in modern, heating technology, spot recording of flow and return temperatures is necessary at certain radiator pipes or screw fittings. Implementation of relevant measures ultimately leads to hydraulic adjustment on the basis of knowledge about the flow and return temperatures. This defines a procedure with which every radiator or heating circuit of a flat radiator within a heating system is supplied at a set flow temperature with the precise amount of heat needed to achieve the ambient temperature required for the individual rooms. Flawed operating conditions will result in considerable excess consumption of electricity and heating energy.

    • If the firmware update does not start under Windows 8.1 or Windows 10, a new bootloader must be installed on the measuring device once.
      A description and all necessary files can be found under the search term: Update-Kit / Bootloader
    • Testo ZIV driver in the 2000 version. The Testo ZIV driver is used to connect the testo 320 and testo 330 measuring instruments to an application program (sweeping district administration program) according to the interface Version 2.0 defined by the Zentralverband des Schornsteinfegerhandwerks (Central Association of Chimney Sweeps, ZIV). Please check with the manufacturer of your application program as to whether this interface is supported. If Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 has not been installed on the computer, it must be downloaded from the Microsoft website and installed on the system.
