testo, new generation of combustion measurement and leak detection

With increasingly complex processes, the daily work of heating and air-conditioning professionals is becoming ever more demanding. To help them, TESTO set out to make measurement technology even simpler. The world leader in measuring instruments is therefore unveiling two major innovations designed to make life easier and work more efficient for HVAC professionals.
Intuitive, the new-generation testo 300 combustion analyzer uses the manufacturer's wireless Smart Probes to carry out combustion measurements in record time, determining up to 4 parameters at the same time (pressure, temperature, etc.). With no equivalent on the market, the new testo 316 series, with its revolutionary testo 316-2-EX model, ensures reliable, combined detection of gas leaks and refrigerant leaks in heating and heat pump installations.
New-generation testo 300, simultaneous wireless measurements in record time
With the same precision and robustness as testo 300 (intuitive Smart-touch screen, etc.), the new-generation testo 300 combustion analyzer benefits from major technological advances that improve efficiency. The new testo Bluetooth® connector allows the new-generation testo 300 to carry out, alongside the combustion analysis, wireless measurements of four additional parameters by connecting simultaneously to the following three Smart Probes:
- testo 115i for measuring flow and return temperatures,
- testo 510i for measuring dynamic and static gas pressure,
- testo 915i for measuring combustion air temperature.
All data is shown on the screen and started and stopped simultaneously. Conveniently, the new-generation testo 300 connects automatically via Bluetooth to the testo Smart mobile app on smartphone and tablet in order to mirror measured values live on the mobile device, including those from the Smart Probes. Thanks to this dual-display function and easy documentation via the testo Smart App, the technician has all the important measurements to hand, even when there is a long distance between the instrument and the burner control. The data for documentation, as well as the creation and e-mailing of reports, are integrated into the testo Smart App.
Preventing transfer errors, all values saved on the new-generation testo 300 analyzer are sent to the user's own software using the new QR code, via a previously configured interface. Faster and easier to use, the testo 300 analyzer simplifies combustion measurement in heating installations. testo 316-2-EX, the world's first two-in-one sensor for combined detection of gas and refrigerant leaks
With the same focus on efficiency, Testo is launching its new series of testo 316 gas leak detectors, made up of 4 instruments covering all needs and fields of use, from small installations to large industrial ones. In this new range, testo offers a revolutionary innovation: the world's first two-in-one sensor, testo 316-2-EX, which locates both combustible gas leaks and refrigerant leaks in heat pumps without changing detector.
testo 316-2-EX offers professionals cutting-edge functions
- With ATEX-certified explosion protection, it is particularly suited to environments with high safety requirements.
- In the event of a leak, audible and visual alarms are triggered, notably via the multicolor LED indicator (green, yellow, red) on the sensor head.
- Thanks to the precision mode and the automatic identification of the most common gases and fluids, testo 316-2-EX makes leak detection even simpler and more reliable.
- The flexible probe makes measuring easier, even in hard-to-reach places.
- Gas concentration values in ppm or as a percentage of LEL (lower explosive limit) can be retrieved, documented and displayed on smartphone and tablet via the testo Smart App.
testo 316, a versatile range of gas leak detectors
Comprehensive, the testo 316 series comprises three other instruments suited to every need:
- testo 316 i, connected and simply SMART, ideal for locating leaks on gas pipes;
- testo 316-1, equipped with a display and simply EASY, to make it easier to identify and locate leaks and even to read concentration values in ppm or as a percentage of LEL;
- testo 316-1-EX, simply SAFE, with advanced functions suited to combustible gas installations with high safety requirements: explosion protection (EU) certified to ATEX.
With its new connected instruments, the NEW-GENERATION testo 300 and testo 316, which increase the efficiency of burners and boilers through optimal combustion without gas loss, Testo offers all HVAC professionals valuable benefits. Installers and maintenance specialists benefit from simplified measurement techniques. Operators, for their part, make savings, which is essential at a time when energy and raw material costs are soaring.
