IMPORTANT NOTES

Please read the user manual for full instructions on the use of Sprint Pro this guide should be used for a quick reference only
(full user manual is available at www.anton-group.com).
Observe all warnings and instructions detailed in the user manual or as prompted by the analyser.
Before use ensure Sprint Pro is in good repair and do not use if damaged or if calibration has expired.
Sprint Pro must only be used with the Sprint Pro Flue Probe Assembly and always with the water trap and filters in place.
The water trap must be dried after use and before Sprint Pro Flue Probe Assembly is returned to carry case.
Connect the Flue Probe Assembly to Sprint Pro before switching on and do not insert probe into flue until after the zeroing process is complete.
Always start Sprint Pro in clean air.
Sprint Pro will lock out its Test Menu once calibration has expired

SWITCH-ON

FLUE GAS ANALYSIS

Select Flue gas analysis from the Test Menu. The first time this option is entered after each switch on the Sprint Pro will perform a ‘zero’. Following a successful ‘zero’, Sprint Pro will begin taking measurements. Use the soft keys to log or print the results.
Press the ON/OFF/ENTER button to display the various screens available:

Screen 1: O2, CO, CO2, CO/CO2 ratio and pressure
Screen 2: O2, excess (XS) air, Temperature Flue and Efficiency
Screen 3: Combines flue elements from previous screens.
Screen 4: (if NO sensor not fitted): Temperature Flue, Temperature Inlet, Net Temperature
Screen 4: (if NO sensor fitted): NO, NOx, CO, CO2, CO/CO2 Ratio, O2
Screen 5: (if NO sensor fitted): Temperature Flue, Temperature Inlet, Net Temperature
To perform a manual pressure ‘zero’, use the soft key marked in flue gas screen 1 or 3.
To change the efficiency readings (Net, Gross – for NetHE see user manual), use the soft key marked in flue gas screen 2.
Note: The pump will remain on and continue purging for some time after leaving this option to clear residual gas

PRESSURE AND DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE TESTS

Before carrying out the test, the pressure must be zeroed with the tubes connected to the instrument but not to the pressure source. A thermocouple may be connected to provide temperature readings in these tests.

Select Pressure Menu from the Test Menu. Then select Pressure or Diff Pressure from the menu.
Connect tubes to pressure inlets on instrument.
Zero pressure using the soft key marked

There is an option to time this test: Sprint Pro will display the duration time on the screen.
- Press the soft key to start optional timer.
- To stop timer press the soft key
- To reset the timer press the soft key .
To re-zero the pressure at any time press

LET-BY, STABILISATION AND TIGHTNESS TEST

Select Pressure Menu from the Test Menu. From the Pressure Menu select Let-by / Tightness.
Connect tube to positive pressure inlet on the instrument.
Zero pressure, using the soft key marked
Connect tube to pressure source and ensure correct starting pressure.
Press the soft key to start test. Sprint Pro displays the duration time on the screen.
To stop test press the soft key
To pass the let-by test, press the soft key to proceed to Stabilisation and Tightness test. If the Let-by test fails press To carry out the test again press and restart from step 2.
Follow the process above for stabilisation and tightness tests.
At the end of the let-by / tightness test you can log or print the results.

TEMPERATURE TESTS

Sprint Pro can perform a differential temperature test with one or two thermocouple probes. To begin test, select Diff Temperature from the Test Menu. Check the units displayed are the correct temperature scale. Note: If no probes are connected Sprint Pro will display ####. Two probe test: Connect both probes to the K-type connectors. Place probes in position. The screen will display the temperature of probe 1, probe 2, and the differential temperature. Use the soft keys to log or print the results as required.
Single probe test: When using only a single probe Sprint Pro will display an additional icon on the screen to allow the first and second reading to be taken separately.

Place the probe in position 1 to take the first measurement, T1.
Press the soft key icon to take a snapshot reading of T1. The screen will now display the icon as
Move the probe into position 2 to take the second reading, T2. The screen will display the snapshot of T1, the live probe temperature of T2 and the differentialtemperature.
Use the soft keys to log or print the results.

ROOM SAFETY TEST

To begin test, select Room Safety from the Test Menu. Sprint Pro will display the Room Safety Menu. Select the appropriate appliance from the list.
If required, connect probe to the Sprint Pro and place at the recommended height. Note: Refer to British standard BS7967 if necessary.
The pump will switch on in readiness for the test. The test will run for the duration required depending on the appliance selected according to BS7967.
To start test press the soft key.
Sprint Pro will emit an alarm if 30ppm (or 90ppm) threshold is exceeded for the CO test or 0.5% (or 1.5%Vol) for the CO2 test (where CO2 sensor fitted). Sprint Pro is programmed with pass/fail criteria for this test. Refer to British Standard BS7967 for further details on performing room safety tests.
To stop the test before the minimum duration is met, press the ESC key.
When the minimum duration is met the soft key will end the test.
Use the soft keys to select ‘Quit test?’ Use the soft keys to log or print the results once test is complete.

APPLIANCE SWEEP TEST

To begin test, select Appliance Sweep Test from the Test Menu.
Connect probe to the Sprint Pro and press start to commence test. Note: Refer to British standard BS7967 if necessary.
