Specification for direct gas-fired forced convection air heaters with rated heat inputs up to 2 MW for industrial and commercial space heating: safety and performance requirements (excluding electrical requirement) (2nd family gases)
This British Standard gives detailed requirements, including
safety and performance requirements and methods of test,
for direct gas fired forced convection air heaters having
heat inputs up to 2 MW, intended for industrial and
commercial applications. Appliances covered by this
standard are not intended for installation in domestic
dwellings.
The scope of this standard includes direct gas fired forced
convection air heaters for use both with and without
ducting, and intended primarily for space heating
applications. It therefore includes air heaters designed to
provide make-up air, door curtain heaters, spray booth
heaters, portable air heaters and direct fired air heaters
capable of providing full space heating.
This standard specifies the requirements for direct gas fired
forced convection air heaters designed for permanent
outdoor installation.
It also specifies the requirements for transportable direct
gas fired forced convection air heaters.
This standard applies to appliances designed to operate on
normal low pressure district supplies of 2nd family gas.
For appliances fitted with gas boosters, additional
requirements may apply.
NOTE. The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
