KANE455 OVERVIEW The KANE455 Combustion Analyser measures carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), differential temperature and differential pressure. The direct measurement of CO2 is achieved using a Kane designed infra-red sensing system. CO2 is set to zero in fresh air automatically after the initial countdown. If “RESET GAS ZERO” is indicated ensure that the unit is in fresh air before pressing the button with an “Enter” symbol. It calculates oxygen (O2), CO/CO2 ratio, losses, combustion efficiency (Nett, Gross or Condensing) & excess air. The KANE455 Combustion Analyser can also...

Battery Type This analyser has been designed for use with disposable alkaline batteries or rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries. No other battery types are recommended. WARNING The battery charger unit must only be used when NiMH batteries are fitted. Do not mix NiMH cells of different capacities or from different manufacturers. All four cells must be identical Replacing Batteries Turn over the analyser, remove its protective rubber cover and fit 4 “AA” batteries in the battery compartment. Take great care to ensure they are fitted with the correct battery polarity. Replace...

BEFORE USING THE ANALYSER EVERY TIME: Check the water trap is empty and the particle filter is not dirty: - To empty water trap, unscrew the red screw plug and re-tighten once it is empty. To change the particle filter, remove protective rubber cover, slide the water trap unit from the analyser, remove the particle filter from its spigot and replace. Reconnect the water trap unit and rubber protective cover. Connect the flue probe hose to the analyser’s flue gas inlet and connect the flue probe’s temperature plug to the T1 socket – check the plug’s orientation is correct see Page 6. 2.1...

2.2 STATUS DISPLAY Select “Status” on the dial to view the following: Replace alkaline batteries if less than 10. → Recharge NiMH batteries if less than 20. → Current time. Can be re-set via the “Menu”. → Current date. Can be re-set via the “Menu”. Shows number of days until next calibration is NOTE: The typical BAT status number for fully charged NiMH batteries is 70+. For new professional alkaline batteries it is typically 99. SAFETY WARNING This analyser extracts combustion gases that may be toxic in relatively low concentrations. These gases are exhausted from the back of the...

3. USING THE FOUR FUNCTION BUTTONS: Switching ON the Analyser Press / button to switch the unit ON. This must be done in fresh air to ensure that the analyser auto calibrates its sensors properly. When switched on, the analyser beeps and briefly displays battery %, fuel and pressure units. Its bottom line counts down from 90 until the sensors are ready to use. If the analyser will not auto calibrate, its sensors need to be replaced or recalibrated by an authorised repair centre. If an inlet temperature probe (optional) is connected into the T2 socket during its countdown, the measured...

Backlight & Tasklight to switch the display's backlight and NOTE: Use of the backlight/tasklight significantly increases the current drain on the batteries. The analyser normally operates with the pump on. Press When the pump is switched off “-PO-" is displayed instead of the O2, CO & CO2 readings. The analyser also displays "PUMP OFF" on the top line approx every 40 seconds. NOTES: 1) The pump will not switch off if the CO reading is above 20ppm . This helps to protect the CO sensor from damage. 2) The pump will automatically switch itself off when the rotary switch is set to Menu, Status,...

The top line briefly displays the log number. Note: This STORE function is inhibited in normal operation if the pump is switched off. Using / Buttons The function buttons below the symbols / / are used to navigate through the menu when the rotary switch is set to MENU – See USING THE MENU, Section 5.

4.1 COMBUSTION TESTS: Insert the tip of the flue probe into the centre of the flue. The readings will stabilise within 60 seconds assuming the boiler conditions are stable. The rotary switch can be used to display the following information: RATIO Display → Fuel type can be changed via “Menu”.
