The Model 309 Series Portable Flue Gas Analyzer has been designed for accuracy, reliability and ease of use and service. The 309 uses a long life electrochemical O2 sensor and a solid state infra red CO2 detector, both of which respond quickly to O2 and CO2 present in the flue gas sample.

In operation, a built-in sample pump draws in the flue gas sample through the S.S. probe, 12 ft sample hose, condensate removal filter, secondary filter and flow meter then on to the O2 sensor and CO2 detector. The detected gases are displayed on separate LCD digital meters which have a switchable backlight for use in dark areas.

The 309 can optionally indicate stack temperatrue (309T) for doing fuel efficiency calculations. The temperature sensor is built into the sampling probe.  Efficiency charts for each fuel are provided.

A rechargeable battery provides enough power for about 8 hours of continuous operation and the analyzer can be used while it is being recharged.  A red LED tells when to recharge and a green LED verifies that it is receiving recharging power. The recharger is included.
