The Bacharach PCA®2 is a commercial grade, handheld combustion and emissions analyzer for sampling of light industrial, institutional, commercial and residential furnaces, boilers and appliances. The Bacharach PCA®2 is the perfect tool for service technicians and boiler contractors who need to ensure safe operating conditions, determine combustion efficiency, or perform emissions testing in combustion applications.

The Bacharach PCA®2 directly measures and displays:

Flue gas oxygen (O₂)
Carbon monoxide (CO)
Stack temperature
Draft
Differential pressure
Combustion air temperature

Additional Bacharach PCA®2 Combustion Analyzer models are available which also measure and display:

Nitric oxide (NO)
Nitrogen dioxide (NO₂)
Sulfur dioxide (SO₂)

Simultaneously, the Bacharach PCA®2 calculates and displays combustion efficiency (EFF), excess air (EA), carbon dioxide (CO₂), NOx and oxygen reference values. The Bacharach PCA®2 performs combustion calculations for ten fuels including natural gas, oil (#2, #4, #6)propane, coal, wood, kerosene, bagasse and digester gas. The Bacharach PCA®2 has a large backlit graphic display which shows eight different measurements and calculated values simultaneously. An internal memory logs up to 500 test records.

The Bacharach PCA®2 combustion analyzer ships complete with meter, IRDA printer, hard carry case, probe and hose assembly, factory calibrated sensors, protective boot, USB cable, software and manual.
