1.0 INTRODUCTION

Introduction

1.1 The Portable Combustion Analyzer

The Portable Combustion Analyzer (PCA) (Figure 1-1) is a commercial

grade, hand held, combustion efficiency analyzer that is designed for

continuous

(on demand) sampling of light industrial and residential

furnaces, appliances, and boilers. The basic instrument is supplied with a

probe, instruction manual, batteries, and carrying case.

Figure 1-1. PCA

Instruction 0024-9219

1-1

Introduction

1.2 Displayed Data

PCA

The PCA directly measures, displays, and stores the following data:

•

Room Temperature in °F or °C (Primary Air/Ambient Temperature)

•

Flue Gas Oxygen Content in %

•

Flue Gas Temperature in

°F or °C

•

Flue Gas Carbon Monoxide Content (H

Compensated) in ppm

(For analyzers having a Carbon Monoxide sensor)

•

Flue Gas Nitric Oxide content in ppm

(For analyzers having a Nitric Oxide sensor)

•

Pressure/Draft in Millibars, Pascals, or Inches of Water Column

(For analyzers having a draft sensor)

•

Differential Pressure in Millibars, Pascals, or Inches of Water Column

(For analyzers having a draft sensor)

The PCA will compute, display, and store the following data for any of the

seven standard fuels:

•

Combustion Efficiency in %

•

Excess Air in %

•

Flue Gas Carbon Dioxide Content in %

•

Flue Gas Carbon Monoxide Content referenced to Oxygen in ppm

(For analyzers having a Carbon Monoxide sensor)

•

Flue Gas Nitric Oxide Content referenced to Oxygen in ppm

(For analyzers having a Nitric Oxide sensor)

The seven standard types of fuels that can be selected are:

•

Natural Gas

•

Oil #2

•

Oil #4

•

Oil #6

•

Kerosene

•

Propane

•

Coal

The PCA continuously monitors flue gas exhaust conditions and updates

the above displayed values during a combustion test. If the analyzer is

equipped with an optional pressure sensor, then draft measurements can

be made simultaneously with the combustion test, or made separately.

The analyzer has the capability of storing data that was collected during

a combustion test or draft measurement. The stored data can then at a

later date be either viewed on the PCA’s display, printed using an op-

tional printer, or downloaded to a computer.

PCA 10 & 40

These basic instruments have the capability of measuring, displaying,

and storing combustion tests. They will also display flue gas Oxygen

content, flue gas Carbon Dioxide (CO

) content, air temperature, flue gas

temperature,

combustion efficiency, excess air

, and the current fuel

selected. The ‘standard’ PCA 10 stores up to 10 combustion tests, while

the ‘advanced’ PCA

40 can store up to 100 tests.

PCA 15 & 45 with Draft

In addition to the features of the basic PCAs described above, these instru-

ments have the added capability of measuring, displaying, and saving draft

or differential pressure in either Millibars, Pascals, or Inches-of-Water

Column.

PCA 20 & 50 with Carbon Monoxide Measurement

In addition to the features of the basic PCAs described above, these

instruments have the added capability of measuring, displaying, and

saving Carbon Monoxide (CO) content, as well as calculating a CO level

that is referenced to Oxygen. The ‘standard’ PCA 20 calculates CO refer-

enced to 0% Oxygen, while the ‘advanced’ PCA

50 calculates CO refer-

enced to a user selected Oxygen level of between 0–15%.

PCA 25 & 55 with Draft and CO Measurement

These instruments combine the features of all the PCAs listed above.

Instruction 0024-9219

Introduction

PCA

PCA 30 & 60 with CO and Nitric Oxide Measurement

In addition to the features of the basic PCAs with CO measurement, these

instruments have the added capability of measuring, displaying, and

saving Nitric Oxide (NX) content, as well as calculating a NX level that is

referenced to Oxygen. The ‘standard’ PCA 30 calculates NX referenced to

0% Oxygen, while the ‘advanced’ PCA

60 calculates NX referenced to a

user selected Oxygen level of between 0–15%.

PCA 35 & 65 with Draft, CO & NX

These instruments are capable of measuring, displaying, and saving all

measurements as previously described.

Printout Capability

All PCAs have the ability to print the latest test data, or any of the saved

tests, to an optional printer via an infrared link.

CO Sensor Purge

On all PCAs that measure CO, if

the

ON/OFF

is pressed while the CO

reading is 100 ppm or higher, the analyzer will attempt to purge itself of

CO before turning off.

Advanced PCA Model Features

‘Advanced’ models of the PCA contain the following features that are in

addition to the features of their corresponding ‘standard’ units:

•

100 memory locations

•

RS232 output for transferring saved data to a personal computer

•

Ability to enter three lines of user-identification information which is

printed at the top of each printout

•

Ability to enter three lines of customer-identification information

which is printed with each test record

•

Ability to set the Oxygen reference level from 0 to 15% for CO and NX

measurements on analyzers equipped with a CO or NX sensor
