KANE200 & KANE250
User Guide
The
KANE200
Efficiency Meter tests heating appliances for O
2
, CO
2
,
temperature and combustion efficiency.
The
KANE250
Combustion Meter measures O
2,
temperature and CO and
then calculates efficiency (Nett, Gross or Condensing), the CO/CO
2
ratio
and Poison Index
In addition the KANE250 Combustion Meter’s CO sensor checks CO
levels in ambient air - useful when a CO Alarm is triggered .. and tests
the safety of appliances. It also calculates CO air free in ppm only.
The CO reading can be referenced to the oxygen reading in ppm or
mg/m
3
.
All meters have a protective rubber sleeve with a magnet for “hands–
free” operation and their flue probes work on all combustion appliances
and take ambient air measurements.
The large display shows 2 readings at a time and all data can be printed
via an optional infrared printer. The printed data can be 'live' data, 'frozen
data' or stored data. 16 sets of tests can be stored. Note: stored data is
lost if the batteries are removed or are exhausted. Two lines of 16
characters can be added to the header of printouts.
The meters are controlled using 4 buttons and a rotary dial.
The four buttons (from left to right) switch on and off the meter, print
actual or frozen data, switch on and off the backlight, switch on and off
the pump and “freeze” or hold data. If the HOLD button is pressed for
more than 2 seconds the current data is stored in memory and the test
number is briefly displayed. The buttons with UP, DOWN and ENTER
arrows also change settings such as date, time, fuel source, and the
display’s top line.
The rotary dial changes the display’s 2
nd
line and selects access to the
menu to make changes to the date, time, fuel, etc.
