Champ d’application

This standard applies to fixed industrial boilers utilizing coal, natural gas, oil, biomass, or electricity as fuel, with water or organic heat transfer fluids as the medium. It specifically covers steam boilers (rated pressure ≥ 0.1 MPa and < 3.8 MPa), hot water boilers (rated power ≥ 0.1 MW), and organic heat carrier boilers (rated outlet pressure ≥ 0.1 MPa). Manufacturers must verify if their boiler types fall under these specific pressure and power thresholds to ensure compliance. It references GB/T 2900.48 for relevant terminology.

Exigences techniques

The standard categorizes industrial boiler energy efficiency into three grades, where Grade 1 represents the highest efficiency. All efficiency grades must be achieved while simultaneously meeting the initial emission concentration requirements. The standard establishes specific thermal efficiency limits based on fuel types (such as bituminous coal, anthracite, biomass, natural gas, and oil) and combustion methods (e.g., stoker firing, fluidized bed combustion, and chamber firing). For organic heat carrier boilers, the thermal efficiency must meet at least the Grade 3 requirements if waste heat recovery is utilized; otherwise, it must meet the design value. Electric heating boilers are subject to a strict minimum thermal efficiency requirement of 97%. The 2020 version introduces new parameters for gas-fired condensing boilers, defining their specific efficiency limits based on both lower and higher heating values.

Méthodes d’essai

Thermal efficiency testing under rated conditions must be conducted in accordance with GB/T 10180. For gas-fired condensing boilers, the thermal efficiency test may alternatively be performed following the procedures specified in NB/T 47066. Accurate testing according to these referenced standards is mandatory for certification.

Questions fréquentes
