Combustion analyzers

Wondering who’s combustion analyzer you use?
I’ve used the Testo 310 for several years. I am happy with its operation but not pleased that every 2 years I have to pay $400.00+ ( half the cost of a new unit) for servicing/new sensors/tune up.
Any suggestions?

    The tried and true...
    Testo 320
    Has field replaceable precalibrated sensors

    Bacharach insight plus
    also has field replaceable precalibrated sensors but is usually more costly (both the unit and replacement sensors).

    I've been using the Bacharach Insight Plus for many years. No problems for me. There are a bunch of newer ones on the market now, but haven't tried any.

    Wöhler A400- we have three. I think this has been superseded though.

    And I don't mind sending these off for new sensors and recalibration/recertification. We get a certificate of calibration from the service center, which backs us up if a lawyer comes calling.

    Bacharach Fyreright pro & Insight.  The recalibration & tune up IS annoying, but they all require it. The small Cost of savings lives... Mad Dog 🐕
