Bacharach PCA3Combustion AnalyserThe Bacharach PCA3 is a lightweight, handheld instrument with a full colour graphic display designed to determine combustion efficiency and perform emissions testing

PCA 3 is intended for on-demand or semi-continuous sampling of light

industrial, institutional, commercial and residential furnaces, boilers and

appliances.

Detachable control unit for easy control Bacharach’s unique B-Smart Sensor Exchange Program will deliver new

B-Smart Sensors right to the user. Just a simple “pop out and pop in”

replacement of the sensor permits self calibration with no gas or guess

work required! Providing the quickest and easiest calibration options to

date, the B-Smart Sensors assures accurate performance with no

downtime.

Extremely high accuracyThe PCA3 simultaneously calculates and displays Combustion Efficiency

(EFF), Excess Air (EA), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), NOx and Oxygen reference

values. Plus, the PCA3 performs combustion calculations for ten different

fuels and can measure 4 gases simultaneously from a choice of up to 6

field-upgradable electrochemical sensors.

KEYBENEFITS• Exclusive B-Smart® field-replaceable

sensors reduces downtime and

calibration costs

• Ten different fuels – ability to load

custom fuels

• Loss and efficiency are calculated

from standard heat-loss calculations

pressure

Powerful and easy to use, the PCA3 is a perfect light weight tool for portable emissions testing

B-SMARTSENSORS

With B-Smart® pre-calibrated CO sensors, contractors

can simply replace the instrument’s depleted sensor by

plugging in a new replacement sensor through an easily

accessible port in the back of the unit.

The time-saving technology eliminates the need to send in

the instrument for calibration or for a new sensor. Your new

pre-calibrated sensor will be installed and back on the job

in just a few minutes. Replacement B-Smart® sensors can be

ordered though a1-cbiss
