Requirements concerning the technical room
CAUTION
Smoking and open fire are not permit-
ted. Flammable materials or liquids
must not be stored or used close to the
CHP module. Keep fire extinguishers
and other fire fighting equipment within
reach.
We recommend, similar to the require-
ment of the old Heating Room Directive,
installing a fire extinguisher of the ap-
propriate size (at least 9 l) in the tech-
nical room.
WARNING
In order to avoid breakdowns or dam-
age, the contamination of the combus-
tion air with halogen hydrocarbons (as
contained in spray cans, solvents,
cleaning agents, paint, adhesives etc.)
and excessive amounts of dust must be
excluded.
The technical room for the CHP module must be frost-
proof and well ventilated. The supply and extract air
openings must not be closed or their size be reduced.
The room temperature must not drop below +10 °C.
NOTE
The following signs shall be put up both
outside
and
inside
the technical room:
Prohibition sign P 06
“No access for unauthorized persons“
Prohibition sign P 02
“Fire, naked light and smoking not per-
mitted“
Prohibition sign P 11
“No access for persons wearing a
pacemaker“
CAUTION
Only a specialist firm with personnel
specifically trained in these fields of re-
sponsibility by the CHP module manu-
facturer is authorized to carry out the
assembly work, the initial commission-
ing as well as the maintenance and re-
pair work and to install the fuel, exhaust
gas as well as the power connections.
Any work on pipelines containing gas or
on live parts must be carried out by duly
authorized specialist firms.
LIABILITY
According to Article § 10 of the Energy
Saving Directive, the operator shall ar-
range for the plant’s cleaning and
maintenance, the latter on the basis of
a maintenance schedule. In the course
of such measures, the proper function-
ing of the entire plant shall be checked.
Any defects identified shall be rectified
immediately. During the warranty peri-
od, the maintenance shall be carried
out in line with the maintenance sched-
ule by duly authorized personnel.
NOTE
We recommend concluding a mainte-
nances contract with a company that
has been authorized to do such work by
the manufacturer.
