Bacharach PCA 3 Portable Combustion Analyzer Kit

Description

Bacharach’s all new PCA®3 is the definitive combustion and emissions analyzer that enables fast and accurate measurement for on-demand or semi-continuous sampling of light industrial, institutional, commercial and residential furnaces, boilers and appliances.

Exclusive B-Smart® plug-and-play sensor technology makes calibration as simple as pushing a button.

Features

  • Analyzer Functionality
    • Directly measures and displays Flue Gas Oxygen (O2), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Stack Temperature, Draft, Differential Pressure, Combustion Air Temperature
    • Optionally measures and displays Nitric Oxide (NO), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2)
    • Calculates and displays Combustion Efficiency (EFF), Excess Air (EA), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), NOx and Oxygen reference values
    • Ten selectable fuels plus the ability to custom-load fuels
    • Stores 1,000 tests (500 in memory and 500 in logged memory) 
  • Smart Sensors
    • Instrument includes a pre-calibrated Oxygen (O2) sensor and a pre-calibrated B-Smart® Carbon Monoxide (CO) sensor
    • Unique B-Smart® sensor technology saves downtime and calibration costs
    • Best-in-Class sensor configuration flexibility allows purchased configurations or simple upgrade in the field
    • Sensor options include pre-calibrated B-Smart® NO, NO2, SO2 and CO high sensors
  • Graphic Display
    • 320 x 240 pixel full color graphic display for superior visibility
    • Super-bright backlighting and zoom capability to ensure effortless readability in any low light boiler and furnace room situations
    • Easily change language parameters to display in formation in English, French or Spanish
    • Dimming mode function helps extend battery life
  • Rugged Design and Construction
    • Sturdy metal gas and draft connectors for added durability in the field
    • Tough ABS housing with rugged rubberized over-molding and protective boot with magnet
