Ebook: District Heating Substations Design and Installation: Technical Requirements (F: 101), December 2004

Svensk Fjärrvärme АВ, Art nr 05-1, 2004. 45 p. ISSN:1401-9264Preface
These technical regulations for district heating substations (F:101) are sector-wide
regulations for the Swedish district heating sector, describing the design, installation,
use and maintenance of substations.
If a district heating substation is to operate in the best possible way, the building's
space heating and domestic hot water systems must comply with the requirements in
these regulations and with those issued by public authorities.
These regulations also describe aspects that must be considered when substations need
to be replaced. The use then of correct values for the building energy requirements
ensures that the new substation will be properly matched to its duties.
These regulations are intended for use by:
those responsible for contacts between the district heating supplier and the
customer.
those who own, operate and/or administer a building or facility that is heated by
district heating.
those who design, manufacture, purchase, test or install substations.
It is recommended that enquiries should refer to the Swedish District Heating
Association's technical regulations when specifying requirements. The procurement
criteria described in these regulations should be applied when evaluating tenders.
These regulations have been drawn up and confirmed by the District Heating
Substation Committee. They are valid with effect from November 2004, and replace
the previously published guidelines and instructions for substations.
