Chapter 2

Definitions

§ 2. For the purposes of this notice :

1) Heat alloy measures : Measures to detect the proportional heat yield from the radiator surfaces in consumption units and where the measurement is based on the distribution of heating costs.

2) A forwarder unit : Property, consisting of multiple housing or business units, where heat costs are distributed between the individual housing or business units on the basis of thermal allocations.

3) Distribution measurement : Distribution of the consumption between the individual housing and business units in the unit of resettlement by means of heat-spreading meters.

4) Component type-approval : Decision, which means recognising that the design and operation of a heat distributor meets the requirements of section 3.

5) Type test : The examination of the design of a heat-distributor and the use of the heat distribution meter on selected radiators that are carried out for the purposes of component type-approval of the heat-distribution meter. The examination shall include the testing of one or more copies of the design and an assessment of the technical documentation.

6) Gauge installer : Company that is mounting, scaling and servicing heat distributors.

7) Certified Meter installer : Gauge installer, which has a quality system certified in accordance with the notice of requirements for the meter installer, assembled, scaling and servicing heat-distributors by a body that is accredited here by the Danske Accreditation Fund or by a corresponding accreditation body, which is co-signatory of the relevant EA or IAF multilateral agreements on mutual recognition.

8) Thermal venereal : private or public landlord, the landlord of public housing, private and property housing, and the owner of the property, which provides heat for heat consumers from payment and which uses heat-distribution meters as the basis for distribution of thermal expenditure.

9) Heat consumer : Heat of heat that pays thermal expenses distributed on the basis of thermal allocations.

10) Scale editor : Dimension-free number value, which shall be multiplied by the individual heat distributor ' s head count to ensure consistency between the countdown and the radiator's warning.

1) Make and type of the heat distributors used.

2) Radiator manufacturing and radiator model.

3) Radiator size, setting the length, height, and depth.

4) Radiator heat benefit.

5) The mounting point of the heat distributors used.

6) The shellfish used without any recracted correction shall be made for exposure.

Paragraph 2. Paragraph 1 shall not apply to housing and business units where heat distribution meters are used that are not type-approved because they have been applied before 1. In August 1998 or set up pursuant to section 7 (2), 2.

§ 10. Thermal vendors shall ensure that heat distribution targets are maintained in accordance with the manufacturer ' s instructions.

Paragraph 2. Thermal vendors shall contact a certified meter installer or a meter installer established in another EU/EEA country, or in a country with which the EU has entered into agreement on access to the practice of regulated professions, and which are temporarily and occasional mounting, scaling or servicing heat-spreading meters in Denmark, in the case of factors relevant to the measurement technical basis, including

1) if a heat distribution meter is broken,

2) in the case of an encroachment in an incubator,

3) on the exchange of radiators ;

4) on replacement of heat distributors, or

5) by suppreting heat distributors.

§ 11. In the case of complaints from heat consumers giving rise to specific suspicions of the purpose of the measurement, the alert supplier must provide a reasoned response to the heat consumer. The alert provider must contact the meter of the meter if needed to be able to provide a valid answer.

Appendix 1

Coherence of the meter ' s t min , the mounting point and start-off for heat-spreading meters with electrical energy supply, which works after two-sensor principle ;

Heat spreading meters with electrical energy supply, which operates after two-the principle of principle, must be related to the following correlation between the meter ' s tonnes ; min , the mounting point and starting relationship :

h/H = 75% :

t min LC-DESKTOP\WP\CODE\DI.FILES\SRC\RESOURCES\NLS\RESOURCES_EN.RC 45 ° C with z ≤ 5 K

t min +35 ° C with z ≤ 3 K

t min alters 30 ° C for meters without the invocation differential

h/H = 66% :

t min +40 ° C with z ≤ 3 K

t min +35 ° C for meters without the invocation differential

where

t min is a technical specification specified in the type-approval of the meter,

h is the mounting height measured from the sub-edge of the radiator to one of the meter installer designated point on the gauge,

H is the height of the radiator, and

z is the difference between the temperature of the radiator, defined by water temperatures and the room temperature.

It is permissible to interpolate for other mounting height between 66% and 75%.
