Stack temps
« on: December 06, 2018, 09:59:37 PM »

Not sure if this question has been asked before but has anyone tested the stack temps on their gasser when running wide open? Is there any tech data that says what it should be? I have the G200.

I plan on testing mine tomorrow as it's supposed to be our coldest day so far this year.

Last year I monitored them all year. Temps were generally in the 350-450 range, sometimes a bit higher.

Mine are in the 280 to 350 range, depending on how badly the tubes need cleaning.  Normally it's around 320 after a fresh load and around 250 once it's more coals.  I saw 370 once but that was an anomaly.

Schoppy, please post what you find. I'd like to play around with some of that stuff, but no time to do it.

I checked mine when I knew it was really gassing hard. I got 351 degrees (F) and my secondary burn chamber down under was glowing red. This was at the top of my stack which is 7 1/2 feet tall.
