INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on buying your
Tempest 50
combustion
performance analyser. The unit has been carefully designed and
includes the latest technology to give you an instrument that is easy
to use, reliable and accurate.
The
Tempest 50
is part of a new family of instruments from
Telegan, a company with over 15 years of combustion
instrumentation experience. It measures the oxygen (O
2
) and
carbon monoxide (CO) content of tested flue gas and the flue,
ambient, inlet and nett temperatures. It calculates the carbon
dioxide (CO
2
) content of the flue gas as well as the nett or gross
percentage boiler efficiencies for a wide range of different fuels.
The
Tempest 50
is rugged and has been designed for a tough life
with heating professionals. Its wipe-clean touch panel allows you
to achieve the results you need quickly and simply, without the risk
of moisture or dust damaging the contents. As you will see from
this manual, much of the instrument’s operation can be done with
just three buttons.
Several options are available with the
TEMPEST 50
. These can be
specified for delivery with the instrument or can be added later.
They include a built-in printer, pressure/draught measurement,
nitric oxide (NO) measurement and total nitrogen oxides (NO
x
)
calculation, display back-light and RS232 output for other devices.
If you would like to add any of these options please contact our
sales office (see back cover for details).
