BASIC ANALYZER FUNCTIONS
Analyzer Batteries
Your combustion analyzer is fitted with three AA size 1.5V alkaline batteries.
It is important to keep battery power to the sensors in your analyzer even
when it is not in use.
Your analyzer has a battery status indicator in the lower right corner of the
display. Battery status is determined as follows:
Indicates batteries are at full capacity.
Indicates batteries are at 2/3 capacity.
Indicates batteries are at 1/3 capacity. Replacement of batteries
should be considered soon.
Indicates batteries are very low and in need of replacement
immediately. See Appendix J for battery replacement instructions.
Turning The Analyzer On & Fuel Type Selection
Always:
-
Before turning on please ensure that the Mini Pump Protection
Filter assembly and the Temperature Sampling Probe complete with In-
Line Filter or the Tubing & In-Line Filter fare not connected to the Gas
Sample Port (see page 7)
The instrument MUST be turned on in a clean air environment as the initial
purge will set the Carbon Monoxide level to Zero and the Oxygen to 20.9%.
Press and hold down the Power Key and the TPI 717 will start its 30 second
countdown 'Purging...' will be displayed.
After the 717 has completed purging the fuel type can be selected by press-
ing the Up Arrow key. The selected fuel type is displayed in the lower left cor-
ner of the display. Selectable fuels are Natural Gas, LIGHT OIL, HEAVY OIL,
LPG, Bituminous Coal, Anthracite Coal, Coke, Butane, Wood (Dry), Bagasse,
and Wood Pellet.
After start up, several tests can be performed to ensure proper function of
the analyzer and flue probe. Please refer to Appendix A.
*NOTE: When selecting oil as fuel be sure to use the optional
oil filter (A773) or readings could become erratic. See
Appendix E for installation instructions.
