Introduction

The C50 / C 75 enables HVAC professionals to accurately test and service all
residential combustion appliances. The extra large backlit LCD displays tw o
p a rameters at one time. Easily choose the desired combustion para m e t e r
with the rotary selector. The optional printer allows you to print your 
readings to document your test results.

Features include

• Choose combustion parameter with a rotary selector
• Measure flue temperature and oxygen (C75: also carbon monoxide)
• Calculates carbon dioxide, gross & net efficiency, and excess air

( C 75: also carbon monoxide air free)

• Large backlit LCD, 2 line display
• Protected boot with an integral magnet
• 1 ppm accuracy
• Infrared printer port
• User programmable header
• 16 position memory

Safety Notes

Before using this meter, 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 analyzer 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 consideration of all the potential hazards.

Main Display Parameters

O 2 :

Oxygen reading in percentage (%).

T f :

Te m p e rature is measured by the flue gas probe in Centigrade 
or Fahrenheit. Will show ambient temperature after fresh air 
ca l i b ration and “

” if the flue probe is disconnected.

C O :

Carbon Monoxide reading displayed in ppm (parts per 
million). “

- - - -

” is displayed if there is a fault with the CO 

sensor or the instrument has not set to zero correctly, 
switch off instrument and try again.

C O a :

Carbon Monoxide air-free reading referenced to an oxygen 
level of 0%. Do not confuse this reading with the actual CO 
reading as detailed above. 

C O
