4ECO2 Types
4ECO2 S 4ECO2 M 4ECO2 L

2 Probe
A Zirgonia Oxygen probe is placed at the chimney and receives continiously measurements of the residual oxygen concentration. The Oxygen percentage is been calculated according to the Nernst formula.

Control Unit
The Control Unit, consists of a touch screen that indicates the combustion results, emission measurements, inverter operation levels and fault alarms.

Control Unit
Control Unit operates along with the inverter of the primary air of the burner It controls the speed of inverter and has the possibility of automatic or manual operation.

Combustion Analysis
Contacts flue gas measurements and calculates combustion efficiency. By pressing F3 combustion analysis is printed at the printer connected with the control unit. Type 4ECO2-L keeps record of one year combustion data.

Energy Saving
4ECO2 provides the ability to carry out continuous measurement and correction of combustion quality, regardless of fuel quality and other conditions It saves energy 2-5% without taking into consideration energy saving from VCD
Controlling excess air is the most important tool for managing the energy efficiency and atmospheric emissions of a fuel combustion system
