Testo 320 - discontinued
Combustion analyzers have been designed to test combustion efficiency of boiler, heaters and furnaces. Combustion analyzer use ranges from residential through commercial to industrial, and each type of environment requires somewhat specific tests, sensors and detection levels to be used in a give place. Yet, the main goal is to maintain high combustion efficiency to maximize fuel use, hence save energy.

One of the many things I hear about Combustion Analyzers is they are too expensive. While I may disagree, I do understand that for many people spending $1200 or more on a premium combustion analyzer is not within their budget constraints. Being able to squeeze as many features into their purchase without breaking the bank is a tough balance. Everyone wants the full color display with the touch screen and Bluetooth but sometimes, it’s just not in the cards.
Product selection in the Combustion Analysis market sure is “stacked”. All jokes aside, there are lots of options when it comes to which combustion analyzer you should choose. Today I will be discussing the UEi C157 Eagle3x Combustion Analyzer.
At one point in your life, i’m sure you have heard the phrase “Time is money”. When it comes to combustion analysis, time actually is money. Time can be measured in two ways in this respect. The first is how much time you spend doing a full combustion analysis for a client. The second, and often overlooked, is the importance of doing a job right the first time. Luckily, Testo has both bases covered with the Testo 310 Residential Combustion Analyzer.
Bacharach’s Fyrite InTech is an entry level combustion analyzer that is affordable, yet accurate and effective. The InTech measures CO (0-2,000ppm), O2 (0.0-20.9%), Stack and Ambient Temperature. This analyzer has an easy to read LCD display that can internally store 10 complete records. Low cost of ownership is a key as the Fyrite InTech includes Bacharach’s B-Smart Sensors that are pre-calibrated and can be replaced “in the field”.
Bacharach’s newest entry into their Combustion Analyzer lineup is the Fyrite Insight Plus. This analyzer has a beautiful full color display that shows real-time analysis that is simple to use and read. Bacharach offers B-Smart pre-calibrated sensors that can be easily replaced by the user in the field.
