4.6 Making a Draft / Pressure Measurement

The difference in pressure (ΔP) between two areas can be measured by using the analyzer's two pressure ports and the PRESSURE screen. By using the -ΔP port as the reference, the pressure applied to the +ΔP port will be displayed on the PRESSURE screen as the differential pressure between the two ports. Perform a draft / pressure measurement as follows:

1.Turn ON the analyzer and allow it to complete its warm-up cycle.

2.Display the MAIN MENU by pressing the MENU (F2) button. If necessary, press ESC until MENU appears

above F2.

3.Use the ▲▼ buttons to select PRESSURE.

Press ENTER to display the Pressure screen.

4.Before taking a measurement, the pressure sensor may need to be re-zeroed if it is not already displaying zero with both pressure ports open to the atmosphere. If necessary, zero the pressure sensor as follows:

• Press the ZERO (F2) button.

• Disconnect any hoses connected to the

 

 

 

 

 

 

+ΔP and -ΔP ports, and then press EN-

 

 

 

TER to zero the pressure sensor.

 

 

 

• Reconnect any hoses. When measuring

 

 

 

 

 

 

draft, leave the -ΔP port open to the at-

 

 

 

 

mosphere and connect the probe's draft

 

 

 

 

hose to the +ΔP port.

differential pressure:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• To measure draft, insert the probe into

 

 

 

the stack and observe the draft reading

 

 

 

 

 

 

on the PRESSURE screen.

 

 

 

• To measure differential pressure, con-

 

 

 

nect two sampling hoses to the +ΔP

 

 

 

and -ΔP ports, and place the open end

 

 

 

of each hose into the areas being mea-
