KANE457 OVERVIEW

The KANE457 Combustion and Ambient Analyser measures carbon dioxide (CO2),

carbon monoxide (CO), differential temperature and differential pressure. The direct

measurement of CO2 is achieved using a Kane designed infra-red sensing system.

CO2 is measured at both flue gas concentrations and at ambient concentrations using

two separate sensing systems. These sensing systems are automatically

compensated for changes in ambient temperature and in atmospheric pressure.

Low flow is automatically detected in both combustion and ambient modes. It can be

triggered by low battery voltage, a kinked hose, a full water trap, saturated particle

filter or a blockage in the hose or probe.

Flue CO2 in % is set to zero in fresh air automatically after the initial countdown. For

extra accuracy ambient CO2 in ppm is set to a true zero using a Kane 'ZeroCal

Capsule'.

If “RESET GAS ZERO” is indicated ensure that the unit is in fresh air before pressing

the button with an “Enter” symbol.

It calculates oxygen (O2), CO/CO2 ratio, losses, combustion efficiency (Nett, Gross or

Condensing) & excess air.

The KANE457 Combustion Analyser can also measure CO levels in ambient air -

useful when a CO Alarm is triggered. It can also perform a Room CO + CO2 Test for

up to 30 minutes duration.

The analyser has a rubber protective cover with a magnet for “hands–free” operation

and is supplied with a flue probe with integral temperature sensor.

The large display shows 4 readings at a time and all data can be printed via an

optional infrared printer. The printed data can be 'live' data or ‘stored’ data.

The memory can store up to:

99 combustion tests

20 pressure tests

20 let-by/tightness tests

20 temperature tests

20 room tests

20 ambient tests

240 timed tests

Two lines of 20 characters can be added to the header of printouts.

The analyser is controlled using 4 function buttons and a rotary dial.

The four buttons (from left to right) switch on and off the analyser, switch on and off

the backlight and task light, switch on and off the pump and send data to a printer or to

the memory. The buttons with UP, DOWN and ENTER arrows also change settings

such as date, time, fuel, etc. when in MENU mode.

1. BATTERIES

BATTERY TYPE

This analyser has been designed for use with disposable alkaline batteries or

rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries. No other battery types are

recommended.

WARNING

The battery charger unit must only be used when NiMH batteries are fitted. Do

not mix NiMh cells of different capacities or from different manufacturers. All

four cells must be identical.

REPLACING BATTERIES

Turn over the analyser, remove its’ protective rubber sleeve and fit 4 “AA” batteries in

the battery compartment. Take great care to ensure they are fitted with the correct

battery polarity. Replace the battery cover and protective rubber sleeve.

Switch the analyser on and check that the analyser’s time and date are correct. To

reset see USING THE MENU, Section 5.

CHARGING NIMH BATTERIES

Ensure that you use the correct charger. The part number is 19278.

TO FULLY CHARGE NIMH BATTERIES:

Switch the KANE457 on.

The charger must then be connected and switched on.

When charging, the red Battery Charging Indicator will illuminate.

Now switch the KANE457 off. The display will show “BATTERY CHARGING”

The first charge should be for 12 hours continuously. NiMH batteries are suitable for

top up charging at any time, even for short periods.

An in-vehicle charger can be used to top up the analyser's batteries from a 12 volt

vehicle battery. The part number is 18342.

BATTERY DISPOSAL

Always dispose of depleted batteries using approved disposal methods that protect the

environment

Page 8

BEFORE USING THE ANALYSER EVERY TIME:

Check the water trap is empty and the particle filter is not dirty:

- To empty water trap, unscrew its stopper and re-tighten stopper once the trap is

empty.

- To change the particle filter, remove protective rubber sleeve, slide the water

trap unit from the analyser, remove the particle filter from its’ spigot and replace.

Reconnect the water trap unit and rubber protective sleeve.

Connect the flue probe hose to the analyser’s flue gas inlet and connect the flue

probe’s temperature plug to the T1 socket – check the plug’s orientation is correct -

see Page 6.

FRESH AIR PURGE

Position the flue probe in fresh air, then press / . The analyser’s pump

starts and the analyser auto-calibrates for approximately 90 seconds. When complete:

Select “Ratio” on the dial. In fresh air the CO reading should be zero.

Select “O2/Eff” on the dial. In fresh air the O2 reading should be 20.9% ± 0.2%.

RESET

GAS ZERO

IN FRESH

AIR 

This message indicates that the analyser needs to be reset in fresh air. To do so,

ensure that the analyser is in fresh air and press / .

To perform a manual ‘Gas Zero’, select ‘Ratio’ on the dial, hold down the

key and you will see the message above.

Page 9

STATUS DISPLAY

Select any of the three “Status” positions on the dial to view the following:

BAT

→ Replace alkaline batteries if less than 1 bar.

Recharge NiMH batteries if less than 1 bar.

14:56:29

→ Current time. Can be re-set via the “Menu”.

11/03/06

→ Current date. Can be re-set via the “Menu”.

CAL 283

→ Shows number of days until next calibration is

due.

NOTE: The typical BAT status symbol for fully charged batteries is 3

bars

SAFETY WARNING

This analyser extracts combustion gases that may be toxic in relatively low

concentrations. These gases are exhausted from the back of the instrument. This

analyser must only be used in well-ventilated locations by trained and

competent persons after due consideration of all the potential hazards.

Users of portable gas detectors are recommended to conduct a “bump” check before

relying on the unit to verify an atmosphere is free from hazard.

A “bump” test is a means of verifying that an instrument is working within acceptable

limits by briefly exposing to a known gas mixture formulated to change the output of all

the sensors present. (This is different from a calibration where the instrument is also

exposed to a known gas mixture but is allowed to settle to a steady figure and the

reading adjusted to the stated gas concentration of the test gas).

USING THE FOUR FUNCTION BUTTONS:

SWITCHING ON THE ANALYSER:

Press / button to switch the unit ON. This must be done in fresh air to

ensure that the analyser auto calibrates its’ sensors properly.

When switched on, the analyser beeps and briefly displays battery %, fuel and

pressure units. Its’ bottom line counts down from 90 until the sensors are ready to

use. If the analyser will not auto calibrate, its’ sensors need to be replaced or

recalibrated by a Kane authorised repair centre.

If an inlet temperature probe (optional) is connected into the T2 socket during its’

countdown, the measured temperature from the inlet probe will be used as the inlet

temperature.

If an inlet temperature probe is not connected to the analyser during countdown the

measured temperature from the flue probe will be used as the inlet temperature.

If neither probe is connected during countdown the analyser’s internal ambient

temperature will be used as the inlet temperature.

SWITCHING OFF THE ANALYSER

Press / button to switch the analyser OFF. The display counts down

from 30 with the pump on to clear the sensors with fresh air – If the probe is still

connected, make sure analyser and probe are in fresh air.

Press / if you want to stop the countdown and return to making

measurements.

Note: The analyser will not switch off unless the CO reading is below 20ppm.

BACKLIGHT & TASKLIGHT

Press / to switch the display's backlight and tasklight on and off.

NOTE: Use of the backlight/tasklight significantly increases the current drain on

the batteries.

SWITCHING PUMP ON / OFF

The analyser normally operates with the pump on.

Press / to switch the pump off and on.
