Bacharach (USA) is pleased to announce the release of the new Bacharach PCA®3 Portable Combustion Analyser, available in fourteen configurations plus fourteen European versions. The PCA®3 is the industry’s first advanced portable combustion analyser with a full colour graphic display for superior visibility and user-friendly interface and the most sensor configuration flexibility in its class. In addition to the included Oxygen (O2) and Carbon Monoxide (CO) sensors, the PCA®3 can be ordered with CO (high), Nitric Oxide (NO), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) and Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) sensors or the sensors can be added in the field without down time, using the B-Smart® pre-calibrated sensor options.
PCA®3 is designed for on-demand or semi-continuous sampling of light industrial, institutional, commercial and residential furnaces, boilers and appliances. With sturdy metal gas and draft connectors and rugged construction the PCA®3 is the new workhorse of the industry. This lightweight, handheld analyser directly measures and displays Flue Gas O2, CO (Hydrogen-Compensated), Stack Temperature, Draft, Differential Pressure, Combustion Air Temperature and optionally measures and displays NO, NO2 and SO2. The PCA®3 simultaneously calculates and displays Combustion Efficiency (EFF), Excess Air (EA), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), NOX and Oxygen reference values. Additionally, the PCA®3 performs combustion calculations for ten different fuels, plus the ability to load custom fuels.
