Emissions measurement by chimney sweep or regulatory body
Various legal regulations stipulate that heating systems must be inspected
periodically. In Germany this is regulated by the First Federal Emissions Protection
Ordinance (BimSchV) in the last amended version, and in Austria by various state
laws.
The following minimum requirements must be met by the operator of the system for a
successful measurement:
❒ Thoroughly clean the boiler immediately before the measurement
❒ Ensure there is adequate fuel
➥ Only use fuels of high quality which meet the requirements as stipulated in the
boiler operating instructions ("Permitted fuels" chapter)
❒ Ensure that there is adequate heat consumption on the day of the measurement
(e.g. storage tank must be able to take heat for the duration of the measurement)
❒ There must be a suitable measuring port in the straight flue gas pipe for the
measurement. The measuring port must be twice the flue gas pipe diameter away
from the last upstream bend.
➥ If the measuring port is not correctly positioned, the measuring result will be
distorted
❒ First perform the measurement in pellet mode, then in firewood mode
⇨ See "Starting the emissions measurement in pellet mode" [page 72]
⇨ See "Performing the emissions measurement in firewood mode" [page 73]
NOTICE! If the measurement in firewood mode is not performed straight after the
measurement in pellet mode, the boiler must be thoroughly cleaned two heating days
(1 heating day = 1 day during which the boiler to be measured is in operation) before
the measurement.
❒ Activate the "Chimney-sweep mode" icon
❒ Select the desired starting time from the menu:
immediately
❒ Specify the type of measurement (nominal load / partial load)
CAUTION: "FW nominal load" parameter only for firewood measurement
➥ The flue gas temperature and residual oxygen content should have
stabilised approximately 20 minutes after activation
➥ The display will indicate that the boiler is ready for measurement as
soon as all the conditions for the measurement are fulfilled
Enter target
❒ Enter when the measurement is to be taken (date and time)
date
➥ The boiler will follow the shutdown procedure before the start of the
measurement according to the time lock and will not start up again
until the set time
➥ NOTICE! The boiler starts before the start of the measurement and is
ready for measurement at the set time!
