Operating Instructions
Before Using Every Time
Check for the following:
• The particle filter is not dirty
• The water trap and probe line are empty of water
• All hose and thermocouple connections are properly made
• The probe is sampling ambient FRESH air
• The water trap and drain plug are fitted correctly to the instrument
• The temperature probe is connected if required
Appliance Measurements
Place the CO91’s probe into the appliance’s sampling point. The ideal
sampling point is at least two flue diameters downstream of any bend.
Put the probe tip in the flue center. With balanced flue, make sure the
probe is positioned far enough into the flue so no air can “back flush”
into the probe.
Use the probe’s depth stop cone to fix it in flue diameters from 1/4
to 4/5 inch, 6 to 21 mm. Its maximum operating temperature is
1112˚F / 600˚C.
Make sure you do not exceed the meter’s operating specifications.
In particular:
• Do not exceed the probe’s maximum temperature
• Do not exceed the meter’s internal temperature operating range
• Do not put the meter on a hot surface
• Do not exceed the water trap’s levels
• Do not let the meter’s particle filter become dirty and blocked
