Heating and combustion-KIMO instruments China

Heating systems consist of a boiler, a furnace, or a heat pump to heat water, steam or air in a central location, such as a furnace room in a home or a mechanical room in a large building. Those systems also include the heat distribution part, whether it is a water circuit or a forced air system with fans & blowers.

In order to ensure that such a heating system is working safely and efficiently various functional checks, adjustments and measurements should be performed on heat pumps, gas-fired systems, oil and solid fuel systems, both during commissioning and at regular intervals.

These include flue gas analysis, differential pressure measurement, leak detection and tightness testing, flow temperature measurement, as well as ambient CO measurement. Also note that combustion analysis is important for engines and other combustion processes whose purpose is not to generate heat. It is required to measure their gas emissions for regulatory compliance reasons and efficiency assessments.

FLUE GAS

Combustion-based equipment, such as boilers, furnaces or internal combustion engines need to be tightly controlled with regards to environmental and energy regulations. They also have to ensure a perfectly optimized and efficient combustion process over time in order to consume less fuel.
Flue gas analysis with professional combustion analyzers from Sauermann helps make combustion processes more efficient and reduces emissions by optimizing the combustion reaction and processes.
Flue gases released during combustion contain O2, CO2, CO, NOx (oxides of nitrogen), other pollutant gases and soot particles among others. These pollute the environment, have a negative effect on the climate and create numerous health risks for human beings.

SERVICING HEAT PUMPS

Heat pumps generate heat without any combustion processes and offer greater energy efficiency than even the best condensing boilers. The heating process is based on a refrigerant gas, transporting heat through a phase change cycle. However, most refrigerant gases are not harmless for the environment and usually have a significant cost, so these heat pump systems need to be properly commissioned and maintained.
In order to reliably provide sustainable heat and optimize the heating curve, the heat pumps must be thoroughly checked using suitable measurement technology at regular service and maintenance intervals.
An annual service is also recommended for all heat pumps. This ensures efficient operations, detects any refrigerant gas leaks, and optimizes efficiency to reduce energy costs

DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE

When you carry out servicing work on residential heating systems, the differential pressure measurement is part of the standard repertoire. This includes:
Measurement of gas pressure and static pressure of a boiler Draft pressure: pressure measurement in the combustion chamber or exhaust stack/flue to ensure the combustion gases safely and properly exit the combustion equipment
The measurement of gas flow and static gas pressure in the system is especially important, because the burner can only operate well at a specified flow pressure range. Outside this range, explosive flame formation can occur. The consequences are malfunctions or even breakdown of the heating system. For this reason, the acquisition of a reliable, easy-to-operate differential pressure measuring instrument is essential.

TEMPERATURE

In order for a heating system to work efficiently and distribute heat energy as uniformly as possible, temperature measurement is crucial. At Sauermann you will find temperature measuring instruments for these important heating measurements, directly performed on heating equipment or in a room’s ambient air

TIGHTNESS TESTING AND GAS LEAK DETECTION

Both heat pumps and combustion-based heating systems can severely suffer from refrigerant and combustible gas leaks. Most refrigerants are powerful greenhouse gases that can seriously harm the environment and sometimes can be explosive (such as R32). Combustible gases leaks can raise safety concerns, be explosion hazards, and waste valuable fuel. Thus, it is utterly important to be able to easily locate any leak in order to quickly repair or replace the impacted portion of the gas circuit.
Searching for and finding gas leaks can be very difficult. Fast professional leakage sniffers are essential to locate the slightest leaks precisely and quickly in a gas circuit.
