7.7 Connecting Smart Probes and testo


Smart App
The Next-Gen testo 300 has the option of establishing a Bluetooth® connection
with wireless probes via the testo Bluetooth® Connector as well as a
connection to the testo Smart App at the same time.
If the Next-Gen testo 300 is used with Smart Probes, they must be at
least 8 inches (20 cm) apart.

7.7.1 Attaching the testo Bluetooth® Connector


(0554 3004)
Once the testo Bluetooth® Connector is plugged in, all the warning
and safety instructions for the Next-Gen testo 300 apply.

WARNING

300 at the same time.

20
7 First steps

2 Press the ON button on the Smart


Probe.

 The LED flashes yellow while connecting via Bluetooth® and then
flashes green when the connection is established.

 Once the Smart Probe is connected


with the Next-Gen testo 300, this
reading appears on the display. The
product name and the product ID
(last three digits of the serial number)
indicate at a glance which Smart
Probe is providing the reading. The
readings are transmitted to the testo
300 NEXT LEVEL in fixed measuring
cycles of 1 second.

If the Next-Gen testo 300 receives no new measuring value at the


expected receiving time, e.g.:
- the Smart Probe is outside the connection range
- another problem causes an interrupted connection
no more readings are shown on the Next-Gen testo 300 (display: "----")

Carrying out the normal testo 300 FW update is sufficient to update the
testo Bluetooth® Connector. The testo Bluetooth® Connector then
receives the update when the Next-Gen testo 300 is next switched off.
This means that every testo Bluetooth® Connector with an older
version is updated during switch-off. This is indicated by the
continuous red flashing condensate trap.

To achieve usable measurement results, the test time of a flue gas


measurement should be at least 3 minutes and the measuring
instrument should display stable readings.

If a separate CO Air Free measurement has not yet been carried out,
this value is calculated using the readings from the flue gas probe and
continuously updated.

For this type of measurement, the Averaging option is also available.


See Averaging section.

Up to four Smart Probes can be used simultaneously during flue gas


measurement. This enables parallel measurement of the combustion air
temperature, the differential temperature and the differential pressure.
The following Smart Probes can be connected:

The direction of flow of the gas has an effect on the accuracy of
measurement. Frontal flow onto the sensor leads to higher
readings. The best measurement results are achieved when the
probe is moved gently backwards and forwards.
• When using the ambient CO probe and the flue gas probe, note
that:
The probe must be in the fresh air (CO-free) during the zeroing
phase.

9.5.12 Pipe Commissioning (EU Regulation)


The pipe commissioning (using air or inert gas such as CO2 or N2) is a
tightness test for pipes, including fittings, but without gas appliances and the
relevant regulating and safety devices. The pipe commissioning is performed
after a load test has been successfully completed on newly laid gas pipes, or
after renovation of existing gas pipes, and is used for the acceptance of these
pipes. It shows up even the smallest leaks in gas pipes.
According to DVGW TRGI 2018 and ÖVGW G10, the stabilization time
and test time depend on the pipe volume.
- Pipe volume < 100 l: Adjustment time 10 min, test time 10 min.

67
