Introduction
The
DGA 1000 Gas Analyzer
is a versatile test instrument for
analyzing exhaust gases of internal combustion engines. When
used with other tools and equipment, the analyzer can also detect
and locate ignition, fuel, exhaust, emission control, and engine
service problems.
It is generally assumed that the fuel, ignition, and emission control
systems are functioning properly when exhaust gas concentrations
are within limits specified by the vehicle manufacturer or the local,
state or federal government. If exhaust gas concentrations exceed
those specified limits, repairs or adjustments are probably needed.
For more information on emissions and exhaust gases, refer to
Chapter 5–Fundamentals
✓
Always follow manufacturer specifications when working
on emission control devices to comply with anti-tampering
laws.
