Combustion Analysers
At PCE Instruments you will find combustion gas analysers to be used for professionals for both daily use and business. Here you will find combustion gas analysers to control and test combustion by means of the Sprint V model. The application of combustion gas analysers is based on a gas sampling which flows through a chimney or a funnel. A sample of gas is taken through a hole to obtain the concentration of the components by means of electric analysers provided with electro-chemical sensors. Combustion analysers also have a thermocouple probe available to measure gas temperature as well as a memory program which displays combustion efficiency in relation to the gas analysis, gas temperature and ambient temperature. Combustion analysers are provided with a pump inlet line (produced by a built-in micro-bomb) to take gas samples, as well as with a calculation program in their internal memory with the most common fuel elements composition, so the results are immediately displayed once the proper fuel has been selected.  Combustion analysers come with a display and a printer to show the following results (function of every commercial product):

   • CO2: % in volume
   • O2 : % in volume
   • CO: parts per million, ppm. (i.e. 2.000 ppm = 0,2%)
   • Excess air: %
   • Combustion efficiency: %

All the combustion analysers meet both European and International standards. Combustion analysers can be additionally calibrated and certificated. An annual calibration or maintenance can be carried out. Our engineers and technicians will help you to find the combustion analysers that best suit your needs by calling to our offices: UK customers +44(0) 23 809 870 30 / US customers (561) 320-9162 and also will advise you regarding the rest of measuring instruments available in our web site (measuring instruments).

It is very important to reduce energy consumption as well as to limit the carbon dioxide emission. The 2002/91/CE standard about energy efficiency in buildings provided for the rule 8º states that all the Member States should take the necessary measures to establish a periodic boiler inspections when they use non-renewable solid or liquid fuels and they have an effective rated capacity  between 20 and 100 kW. Such inspection should also be carried out in boilers which use other fuel types. Boilers with an effective rated capacity over 100 kW will be inspected every two years. In case of gas boilers this period will be every four years. This rule needs a practical protocol to establish how to measure boilers efficiency and CO2 emissions, PCE Instruments Combustion analysers are ideal for this required testing.
