testo 380 - Particle counter

0632 3800
  • Carry out parallel fine particle, O2 and CO measurements in real time
  • Ideal for chimney sweeps and system technicians; easy-to-follow, step-by-step guide for carrying out measurements according to 1. BlmSchV
  • Large, graphic colour display, easy to use, low running and maintenance costs
  • Certified for use with solid, liquid and gaseous fuels as well as for the threshold values 1 and 2 according to 1. BlmSchV
  • As a chimney sweep, heating engineer or service technician you are required by law to abide to the rules and regulations (like the 1. BlmSchV – Ord. 1 of the Federal Immission Control Ordinance) which apply to your field and profession. You can rely on the testo 380 to help you to carry out your daily tasks because it is certified for use with solid, liquid and gaseous fuels as well as for the threshold values 1 and 2 according to 1. BlmSchV. The easy-to-use particle counter can take you through the preprogrammed measuring programm of the BlmSchV and save you heaps of time and hassle.

    The number of solid fuel burning systems and the fine particles they emit have continued to soar over the past years. This and the amendment of the 1. BlmSchV has presented chimney sweeps, heating engineers and service technicians with a new and formidable challenge. The testo 380 particle counter is designed to aid professionals such as these in performing easy and precise fine particle measurements on site.

    The testo 380 particle counter. Easy to use. Complies with existing regulations

    If you are a service technician whose job it is to carry out adjustments to heating systems or a chimney sweep who needs to carry out an acceptance inspection, you will like to know that you can rely 100 percent on the testo 380 to provide you with quick results and reliable readings. The testo 380 has a pre-programmed measuring menu that takes you step by step through the official procedure according to 1. BlmSchV. and a measuring program that enables you to adjust solid fuel burning systems so that they meet the new thresholds. The testo 380’s user-friendly menu guide is designed to make your job as a chimney sweep, service technician or heating engineer - and life - easier.

    Fine particle tester with highly-sophisticated sensor technology inside

    Despite being packed with highly-sophisticated sensor technology, the testo 380 fine particle counter is extremely practical and easy to use. The testo 380 can be used to perform parallel fine particle, O2 and CO measurements in real time before presenting the results on an easy-to-read color display. The specially developed Testo technology tucked away inside allows readings to be taken in real time. You can also use the testo 380 to carry out core flow and draft measurements without having to change the sensor first.

    Please note: Compatible with the testo 330-2 LL flue gas analyzer. Together they form an unbeatable team. The innovative complete solution for systems using solid, liquid and gaseous fuels.

    Whether flue gas inspector/chimney sweep, service engineer or heating engineer: testo 380 is the ideal aid.

    If particulate matter measurement has never presented any difficulty - it won't take long to learn how this works: the particulate matter measurement system will guide you through the measurement, analyse the relevant particulate matter, O2 and CO values in parallel, and illustrate these in a diagram. Regardless of whether you are carrying out an acceptance test, or would like to set a combustion system to best effect: with the particulate matter analyzer testo 380, the new challenges of particulate matter measurement can be faced with confidence.

    Thanks to testo 380, the legal guidelines and regulations regarding the acceptance testing process are easily met: the acceptance test integrated into the measurement menu follows the official process set out by the first German Emission Control Ordinance (BImSchV). The intuitive menu guidance ensures that none of the stipulated steps are missed out: core flow and draught measurement are already integrated into the measurement process; important work stages are constantly prompted.

    Your challenging task as a service engineer and tradesman in the areas of heating and sanitary facilities is to set solid fuel systems on site to perform efficiently and meet the new limit values. The measurement program “setting assistant” is an excellent aid: it allows you to carry out measurement procedures with ease; in fact, the testo 380 can perform several measuring cycles in a row without any difficulty.
