Portable Commercial/Industrial Emissions Analyzer - O2, CO, NO/NOx, CxHy/HC, Built-in Printer
The design of the handheld combustion analyzer "S1500/S4500" is clean and ergonomic with an extremely clear and user-friendly keypad.
"S1500/S4500" immediately suggests just how even the most sophisticated engineering can give life to an incredibly comfortable and easy-to-use work instrument.
Devised to analyze flue gases, monitor the pollutants emitted and measure environmental parameters, "S1500/S4500" uses two electrochemical sensors that provide the oxygen and carbon monoxide values while a third sensor is used to measure the pollutants NO and NOx.
The most complete version can house a fourth sensor for measuring NO2, SO2, and CxHy. CO, NO, NO2 and SO2 measuring sensors are also available with a reduced measuring range, with a resolution of 0.1 ppm and better accuracy.
Two external sensors measure the environmental parameters; it is also possible to measure flue draft and carbon black and, with the measuring range of up to 200 mbar, system pressure and pressure in the combustion chamber can be measured and the pressure switches checked.
Intended for eleven main types of combustibles amongst which natural gas, LPG, diesel, and fuel oil, it is also possible to insert into the memory of "S1500/S4500" another 16 combustibles of which the chemical composition is known. The functions of "S1500/S4500" include the storage and the average of the data acquired, the printing (on a roll of thermal polyester paper) of the results, and the possibility of connecting the device to a computer to store data via a USB connection.
Its memory is able to store 1000 complete analyses and using the dedicated SW and mini-USB serial communication cable it is possible to download the data to a PC. It is also interesting to know that "S1500/S4500" is equipped with a single "Li-Ion" rechargeable battery pack used both to power the unit and for the printer: it also has a bright and wide (2,17 x 3,74 inches) TFT color display that has excellent readability also thanks to the zoom function and the backlight.
Another characteristic that distinguishes it from other similar products in the market is the fact the power supply that comes with the product can carry out the dual function of battery charger and power supply for the instrument which means the user can carry out analyses even if the batteries are completely flat.
Another important function is the possibility of carrying out an autozero cycle with the probe inside the stack, exploiting a sophisticated flow deviation system.
As for maintenance, it is useful to know that the sensors can be replaced by the user himself without having to send the device to a service center because the sensors are pre-calibrated; it will however be necessary to get the device calibrated at least once a year.
