kane 455

[AWheating]

two questions.

Does anyone else with this analiser find the magnets are not very strong and it sometimes slides down the boiler case? mine does, really pees me off. If its not common then i will ask kane to sort it out.

and secondly has anyone ever shortend the probes cable/tubing? for me its to long and annoying.

thanks

its a no and a no from me, and i/we have 3 455's in the centre

Mine has slid down a boiler case occasionally, but only without good contact or dirty, contact Kane they are helpful.
haven't shortened the tube but shouldn't be a problem.

The magnet on the case of mine is a bit weak too but it usually stays stuck.

I've worked with a couple of 455's and the IR printer. Never had a problem with them sliding down.

Mines Fine, but then again it is brand new.

Mine is fairly strong. Occasionally slips a tiny bit. On the whole its great.

mines only 5months old, i prefere it slightly over my old Testo. I think i will email Kane and ask there advise on the magnets issue.

not that it helps anyone but i can tell you that a kane printer can not be used with a testo analiser.

Just give the case a bit of a clean. sticks no probs then.

I find the 455 magnets are not as good as the old green 400 case, never had any trouble with that one but the blue seems to slip more, especially with a length of tube hanging down

i will try my new 455 printer with a testo tomorrow, however i do know that the testo printer def works with a 425 (check that the testo has stopped recording before you press print, i'm sure it wont print while drawing a sample)
