2.2 Proper Use - Conditions of Use
Application
The LT2 Lambda Transmitter is an O
2
measuring instrument for the continuous measurement
of O
2
concentration in non-combustible gases in the super-stoichiometric domain, in conjunc-
tion with the LS2 Lambda Probe.
Suitable for gas measurements with a small proportion of combustible components
(< 10,000 ppm), for example in flue gases of combustions systems.
Admissible fuels:
• Non-interacting gaseous hydrocarbons
• Light oil
• Coal
• Biomass (wood)
NOTICE
Direct measurements in combustion gases are not possible.
If the system is to be used in some other way, and if the instrument's functionality in this ap-
plication cannot be unambiguously assessed, the manufacturer should be contacted in ad-
vance.
Prerequisites
It is assumed that facility planning, assembly, installation, commissioning, maintenance and
service works are carried out by sufficiently trained personnel, and these works are supervised
by qualified specialists.
Correct handling
Special attention must be paid to the following:
– The application must conform to the technical data and the specifications regarding au-
thorised use, assembly, connection, environmental and operational conditions (derived
from the job documentation, the instrument's user information, rating plates etc), and to
the documentation supplied.
– The local regulations and facility-specific and technical hazards must be noted and fol-
lowed.
– All steps necessary to protect the equipment, e.g. during transport, storage, maintenance
and inspection, should be carried out.
