 INSIGHT Features & Benefits

AUTO/MANUAL ZERO 

- In automatic mode, the instrument automati-

cally zeroes all sensing channels on ambient air when it is powered on.  If 

a particular sensor is in error during warm-up, the instrument automati-

cally displays the error and continues to operate with the sensor in er-

ror.  However, all information dependent on the sensor in error will not 

be presented.  When the CO channel is set to manual zero, the analyzer 

does not zero the CO sensor to ambient conditions during start up.  In this 

mode, the “fresh air zero” established during manual mode setup is stored 

in memory and used during the measurement of CO.

TEMPERATURE UNITS

 -  Temperatures can be displayed in Centigrade 

or Fahrenheit.  

PRESSURE UNITS 

- Pressures can be displayed in milliBar (mB), 

Pascal (Pa), hectoPascal (hPa), Millimeters of Water Column (mmwc), or 

Inches of Water Column (inwc).  

LANGUAGE 

- The display options are English, French, Spanish, German, 

Italian, Danish, Polish and Dutch.

MEMORY 

- The Fyrite

®

 INSIGHT has the ability to store, recall to 

display, and print a minimum of 100 sets of time and date coded combus-

tion, differential pressure, or differential temperature test records.  This 

includes manually entered Smoke Numbers, Oil Derivatives, and Boiler 

CAUTIONS!

•  When the instrument is used in an inefficient furnace or boiler 

application where there is a high emission of soot, probe sample 

filter may become clogged.  Check filter before every use to confirm 

that it is clean for use or replace with a new filter.  To prevent this 

from occurring, a smoke test should be performed before operating 

under such conditions to ensure that the furnace is burning at a level 

appropriate for the use of this instrument.

•  Use only the Bacharach AC Adapter.  Failure to do so could result in 

damage to the unit and void the warranty.

•  Do not store instrument or its sensors with solvents or products that 

contain solvents.
