Key to symbols
GB
= United Kingdom (Countries of destination)
PMS
= Maximum operating pressure of water
C
12
= A room sealed appliance designed for connection via ducts
to a horizontal terminal, which admits fresh air to the burner
and discharges the products of combustion to the outside
through orifices which, in this case, are concentric. The
fan is down stream of the combustion chamber.
I
2H
= An appliance designed for use on 2nd Family gas,
Group H only.
Note.
Gas consumption is calculated using a calorific value of 38.7
MJ/m
3
(1038 Btu/ft
3
) gross or 34.9 MJ/m
3
(935 Btu/ft
3
) nett. To
obtain the gas consumption at a different calorific value:-
a.
For l/s - divide the gross heat input (kW) by the gross C.V.
of the gas (MJ/m
3
)
b.
For ft
3
/h - divide the gross heat input (Btu/h) by the gross
C.V. of the gas (Btu/ft
3
)
c.
The appliance is preset at the factory to the nominal rating.
*
The value is used in the UK Government's Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) for energy rating of dwellings.
The test data from which it has been calculated have been certified by BG plc 0087.
