1.   Getting Started 

 
1.1 Safety 

Notes 

 
Before using this analyser, read all safety information carefully. In this 
manual the word “WARNING” is used to indicate conditions or actions 
that may pose physical hazards to the user. The word “CAUTION” is 
used to indicate conditions or actions that may damage this instrument. 
 

 WARNING! 

 
This analyser extracts combustion gases that may be toxic in relatively 
low concentrations. These gases are exhausted from the back of the 
instrument. This instrument must only be used in well-ventilated 
locations. It must only be used by trained and competent persons after 
due considerations of all the potential hazards. 
 
1.2 Pre-test 

Checklist 

ƒ

 Clean 

particle 

filter 

ƒ

Water trap and probe are empty of water 

ƒ

All hose and thermocouple connections are properly secured 

ƒ

Flue gas probe is sampling ambient FRESH air 

ƒ

Water trap is fitted correctly to the instrument 

ƒ

Flue temperature plug is connected 

 
1.3  Storing Inlet Temperature 
 
To correctly calculate net temperature and combustion efficiency it is 
important to have the correct inlet temperature set. Two methods are 
available to properly establish the inlet temperature. 
 

ƒ

Non-ducted Systems. If the KANE501C is being used on a system 
that uses combustion air from the space near the appliance, simply 
turn the analyser on without the flue probe connected. The 
KANE501C will use an ambient sensor inside the handset as the 
inlet temperature to determine net temperature.
