FREQUENCY OF IN-SERVICE TESTS

General

In the absence of any other instruction or 
guidance on the means of determining the 
appropriate frequency of in-service testing, the 
following procedure may be used:

a)  6 to 8 weeks after commissioning carry out 

the tests detailed in:

In-Service Tests

b)  12 to 15 weeks after commissioning carry 

out the tests detailed in:

In-Service Tests

Depending on the results of the above tests, 
several possibilities exist:

a)   If no significant changes (e.g. ≤ 1 K) in 

mixed water temperatures are recorded 
between commissioning and 6 to 8 week 
testing, or between commissioning and 
12-15 week testing the next in-service test 
can be deferred to 24 to 28 weeks after 
commissioning.

b)  If small changes (e.g. 1 to 2 K) in mixed 

water temperatures are recorded in only one 
of these periods, necessitating adjustment of 
the mixed water temperature, then the next 
in-service test can be deferred to 24 to 28 
weeks after commissioning.

c)  If small changes (e.g. 1 to 2 K) in mixed 

water temperatures are recorded in both of 
these periods, necessitating adjustment of 
the mixed water temperature, then the next 
in-service test should be carried out at 18 to 
21 weeks after commissioning.

d)  If significant changes (e.g. > 2 K) in mixed 

water temperatures are recorded in either 
of these periods, necessitating service work, 
then the next in-service test should be carried 
out at 18 to 21 weeks after commissioning.

The general principle to be observed after the 
first 2 or 3 in-service tests is that the intervals of 
future tests should be set to those which previous 
tests have shown can be achieved with no more 
than a small change in mixed water temperature.
