1.1 Continuous output in parallel operation
Refer to pages 22-25, Tables 6 and 7 for outputs and efficiency
The outputs and efficiency satisfy the requirements of the standards ISO 3046/1 at 25° C air temperature, 100 kPa air pressure (up to 100 m installation height above sea level),30% relative humidity and methane number 80 and reactive factor cos phi = 1. The tolerance for all efficiency, heat output and energy applications is 5%.
All other data for the cogeneration module applies to parallel operation. You are receiving the data for the partial load range for the purpose of information (although there is no guarantee corresponding to ISO and DIN).
Only use natural gas fuel that is acceptable in accordance with DVGW Directive G260, 2nd gas family, group L. You can get all of the data needed for other gas quantities and installation conditions at your request.
Current characteristic number
The cogeneration module is a series product in accordance with the Gas Equipment Directive without heat dissipation equipment.
The current characteristic number is defined as the quotient of the electrical output divided by the heat output as per the AGFW FW308 worksheet. The figure in Tables 6 and 7 (pages 22-25) is in the defined range between 0.5 and 0.9 for internal combustion engine cogeneration systems.
Primary energy factor ENEV 2007
The primary energy factor (abbreviated »fp«) gives the ratio of primary energy used to final energy released and this factor not only includes energy transformation, but also transport. In other words, that means that the lower the primary energy factor is, the better it is for ascertaining the annual primary energy needs. The fewer resources utilised by the form of energy used and its transformation, the lower the primary energy factor.
Primary energy savings in accordance with the EU Cogeneration Directive
The level of primary energy saved is the percentage savings of fuels with combined power and heat generation within a cogeneration process in relation to the fuel heat consumed in reference systems of non-combined power and heat generation.
The calculation formula is defined in Appendix III of the EU Directive 2004/8/EG on promoting cogeneration geared towards available heat needs.
1.2 Stand-by operation
Charged gas-fuelled engines are only suited for use in stand-by operation to a limited extent due to their characteristic torque curves (on request if necessary).
The hot water return temperature may not be in excess of 65° C either in stand-by operation or parallel operation.
The stand-by operation function is not in connection with operating an absorption refrigerating machine.
1.3 Emissions of pollution
The following emission values after the exhaust gas purification system refer to dry exhaust gas at 5% residual oxygen content.
Emission values
NOx content measured as NO2
< 500 mg/Nm³
CO content
< 300 mg/Nm³

1.4 Energy balance sheet
The energy balance sheet shows you a graph of the energy flow of the cogeneration module.
The energy balance sheet illustrates the transformation of primary energy (natural gas, 100%) into electrical and thermal collectable energy. The losses occurring with this transformation are also shown.
The electrical collectable energy comes from the combustion process in the spark-ignition engine and is transformed into current via this rotating movement with a synchronous alternator.
The thermal collectable energy comes from the combustion process in the spark-ignition engine. It is distributed to the exhaust gas heat, the collector pipe, the engine block and engine lubricating oil and it is used for heating water.
The entire efficiency of a cogeneration module results from the total of the electrical and thermal collectable energy.

2 Product description
The cogeneration module consists of a wide variety of subassemblies and components that this chapter will explain to you. The subassemblies and components are part of the scope of delivery of the cogeneration module.
2.1 Gas spark-ignition engine with
accessories
2.1.1 Gas spark-ignition engine
The gas spark-ignition engine is operated as an internal combustion engine with turbocharging and two-stage mixture cooling with an air ratio of lambda
1.6. A compressed oil jet cools the piston heads. The
exhaust gases are drained through a dry exhaust gas collector pipe.
Components
The crankcase is cast in one piece together with the cylinder block. The 2 parallel cylinder supports with 6 cylinders each (V arrangement) form the close of the crankcase. The cylinder liners are wet-running, replaceable and made of cast iron. The gearbox is arranged on the flywheel side of the crankcase. It includes the crankshaft seal and drive gears for the camshaft and oil pump. The crankshaft made of chromium-molybdenum steel is forged in the forging die and nitride hardened. It is lodged at the end and between the cylinders. The crank pins are intended for lodging one connecting rod each.
The bearing shells are made of lead/bronze with a lead/indium covering and they have a steel back. The connecting rods are also forged of chromium­molybdenum steel in the forging die and they are made slanted.
The pistons are made of a low-expansion aluminium alloy. The form of the piston crown creates an open combustion chamber. Three grooves are embedded into the piston crown for the piston rings. The camshaft is made of a cast iron/chromium alloy with hardened cams and lodged at the ends and between the pistons.
It is arranged lying low in the crankcase. The cylinder heads made of cast iron for each cylinder are fastened onto the crankcase. They have cooling ducts, holes drilled for holding the spark plugs and one intake and exhaust valve per cylinder. The valves mounted to be suspended have replaceable valve bushings.
2.1.2 Engine lubricating oil system
The engine is lubricated via a pressure circulating lubrication system.
The oil is pumped via gear-driven oil pump from the oil sump through the oil cooler that is designed as an oil/water ribbed tube cooler. The lubricating oil is purified through an oil filter cartridge with a paper insert in the main flow. From there, the filtered oil is distributed over various oil channels.
The oil lubricates the crankshaft bearings, the connecting rod bearings, the piston pins, the camshaft bearings and the rocking arms. The gears are lubricated in the gearbox with splash oil within the crankcase. The crank space ventilation is connected to the combustion air suction via oil screen.
Components
The engine lubricating oil system consists of the oil sump, an oil pump, and oil filter with a paper insert and various oil channels.
Special characteristics
The crank space ventilation is connected to the combustion air suction via an oil screen.

5414 733 09/2009
2.1.3 Engine cooling system
The engine is cooled with a closed water circuit. The pump presses the cooling water into the
crankcase through the oil cooler. The cylinder pins and cylinder heads are cooled with the built-in cooling water ducts within the crankcase. The cooling water leaves the engine again after flowing through the water-cooled exhaust gas collector pipe.
Components
The engine cooling system consists of an electrically driven pump, a safety excess pressure valve and a membrane expansion vessel.
Special characteristics
Suitable action should be taken to protect the engine from excessively low cooling water temperatures due to the heating water return tempered at too low a level or an excessively large heating water volume flow such as return rise or hydraulic switching. Consequential damage due to continuous operation outside acceptable operating parameters is excluded from the warranty.
2.1.4 Engine starter
The engine starter supports the starting process of the gas spark-ignition engine.
The engage relay is used both for pushing the pinion with tracking into the engine’s gear rim and closing the contact bridge for switching on the main starter current.
Single-track operation of the single-track gear is formed so that the pushing motions of the engage relay and the rotating motions of the electrical starter engine can overlap in any conceivable tracking situation. The free-wheel (overrunning clutch) ensures that the pinion is entrained if the rotor shaft is driving, although the connection between the pinion and the rotor shaft is loosened when the pinion runs more quickly (overrunning).
Components
The engine starter is equipped with an engage relay and a single-track relay. The sliding-gear starting engine has a voltage supply of 24 V with a power consumption of 6.5 kW.
2.1.5 The battery starter system
The two batteries supply the electrical energy for starting the engine to the engine starter and the ignition system (24 V). The batteries also supply the electrical energy for the monitoring and regulating equipment (24 V).
Components
The two batteries (lead batteries, 170 Ah, 2 x 12 V) are maintenance-free and filled with liquid electrolytic.
Special characteristics
These batteries are supplied precharged dry and filled when starting the cogeneration module.
2.1.6 Combustion air filter
The combustion air filter filters the combustion air fed to the gas spark-ignition engine.
Components
The combustion air filter is a two-stage dry air filter made of fully recyclable plastic with replaceable paper filter cartridges. It is built into the feed air line (on the filter output). The low pressure may not be any more than 30 mbar in front of the gas mixer.
Special characteristics
The air filter has to be serviced according to the specifications in the maintenance plan and applying the specific conditions at the place of installation.

5414 733 09/2009
2.1.7 The gas lane and gas-air mixer
The cogeneration module is supplied with gas through a loosely supplied modular safety gas lane (components approved in conformity with DVGW).
The gas lane should be located above the module in the direct vicinity of the engine.
The gas-air mixer with the flanged butterfly valve works according to the Venturi principle and mixes the gas with the combustion air.
Components and functions
The gas lane is in the scope of delivery of the cogeneration module in conformity with DIN 6280 Part 14 and consists of:
Precision gas filter (included in the delivery)
The precision gas filter protects downstream equipment from soiling. The matted fleece filter mat made of polypropylene offers a high level of flowthrough output, a high degree of purification and long service lives. The precision gas filter is mounted outside of the module.
Elastic stainless steel hose line (included in the delivery)
For decoupling the structure-borne noise between the gas precision filter and ball cock with thermally triggering blocking equipment.
The ball cock with thermally triggering blocking equipment
A fusible cut-out arrests a closing body pretensed by a compression spring. The fusible cut-out releases the closing body when it reaches the triggering temperature of 92°–100 °C. This closes into a closing contour and forms a driving fit that is also maintained when the compression spring loses its force due to further temperature impact.
Gas-pressure guard for minimum pressure
The gas-pressure guard is engineered for the application range in accordance with DIN 3398 Part 1 and Part 2 and designed for falling pressure.
Two magnetic valves
The two magnetic valves are engineered as group B gas safety valves in accordance with DIN 3391/3394, EN 161. The magnetic valves are made of spring­loaded valve discs and a screen to protect the valve seat. The starting gas quantity and the volume flow can be adjusted. The valve is closed without a current.
Sealing control unit
It consists of monitoring electronics for installation in the switching cabinet of the cogeneration module and a pressure guard. It is suited to gas regulator lanes with two safety valves and it checks the safety function of the valves before starting or after shutting off. It has the job of discovering any unacceptable leak in one of the gas valves and preventing the block-type thermal power plant from starting. The other gas valve continues to function without any problems and reliably blocks the gas.
– Zero-pressure regulator for fully stabilising to zero pressure after the gas lane
The zero-pressure regulator keeps the gas-air mixture constant. The zero-pressure regulator is equipped with a preliminary pressure equalisation membrane for a high level of regulating accuracy with changing preliminary pressures as well as with a zero close.
Linear actuator
The linear actuator functions according to the rotary slide valve principle for linear flowthrough to adjust the gas-air mixture for lambda regulation.
Elastic stainless steel hose line
The elastic stainless steel hose line is in the cogeneration module.
Gas-air mixture with a butterfly valve Special characteristics
The gas flow pressure has to be 25–50 mbar at the transfer point from the block-type thermal power plant to the gas regulation lane.
2.1.8 Ignition system
The ignition system supports the starting process of the gas spark-ignition engine.
It only ignites through a camshaft pick-up during the intake cycle. The angular ignition spacing irregularities of each of the cylinders are realised via holes drilled on the camshaft wheel.
Components
The ignition system is designed as a contactless electronic capacitor discharge ignition system based on the camshaft.
It consists of ignition coils (one coil per cylinder), electrical ignition distribution, the revolution transducer for the camshaft, silicon ignition cables, spark plug sockets and the high-performance industrial spark plugs for stationary gas-fuelled engines.
Special characteristics
The ignition system can be adjusted for the point in time of ignition when operating the inputs and outputs for external adjustment of the point in time of ignition. The safety equipment can also be turned off.

5414 733 09/2009
2.2 Coupling
The coupling (flange coupling) connects the gas spark­ignition engine with the three-phase synchronous alternator.
Components
The flange coupling is made from silicone rubber, is highly elastic and can be attached axially. It allows a connection between the gas spark-ignition engine and the three-phase synchronous alternator that is elastic to torsion. The disc-shaped rubber body stressed for the torque-to-bore volume ratio dampens the torsional oscillation which makes it possible to compensate for defects in axial alignment.
The rubber disc elements are directly start vulcanised onto a hub body on the inner diameter. There is cam meshing for the coupling flange on the scope of the element which creates a positive locking plug-and­socket connection in operation that is almost free of play.
2.3 The three-phase synchronous
alternator
The three-phase synchronous alternator generates electrical power with the aid of its rotational movement.
The three-phase synchronous alternator is driven by the gas spark-ignition engine through a coupling. It is flanged onto the gas spark-ignition engine via an intermediate casing.
Components
The three-phase synchronous alternator is equipped with automatic cos-φ regulation for operating between φ =0.8 inductive –1.0, with an adjustable static unit, electronic voltage regulation with a low speed guard and an additional permanent magnet exciting machine.
The standard 2/3 chorded stator winding allows low­harmonic wave network parallel operation. A damper winding is installed for parallel operation with other alternators. A winding temperature guard is also installed.
Special characteristics
This brushless self-exciting three-phase internal pole synchronous alternator satisfies the requirements in accordance with VDE 0530, DIN 6280 Part 3 and the quality standard ISO 9002.
2.4 Basic frame
The basic frame carries the cogeneration module (the gas spark-ignition engine, the three-phase synchronous alternator, the exhaust gas heat transfer unit, the lubricating oil system and the optional noise protection elements The cogeneration switching cabinet and ventilator group can be disassembled for installation. Beams can be loosened in the upper zone and on the side in the lower zone so that larger building components with hoisting equipment or ceiling cranes can be lifted without any obstacles in inspection work.
Components
The basic frame consists of a hollow-profile construction of solid normal steel that is rigid to twisting. The hydraulic interfaces for the gas, exhaust gas, condensate, hot water and aggregate ventilation are brought out on what are known as the “connecting side” ready to be connected for the extensions provided by the customer. The other three sides are freely accessible to operation and maintenance. Rubber elements are mounted on the basic frame that takes the ventilating engine/alternator unit. The basic frame is installed on Sylomer strips on the floor without any fixed anchoring.

5414 733 09/2009
2.5 Piping
The piping is premounted in the factory. It connects the most important elements of the block-type thermal power aggregate (cooling water heat transfer unit, exhaust gas heat transfer unit and engine). These elements are completely piped on the cooling water, heating and exhaust gas side and insulated wherever necessary.
Components
All pipe connections have metal compensators and flexible hose connections to decouple vibrations and they are engineered as flange or flat-sealing screwed connections. Lines conducting water are engineered in normal steel and the pipelines conducting exhaust gas are engineered in stainless steel.
2.6 Heat transfer system
The heat transfer system consists of the exhaust gas heat transfer unit and the cooling water heat transfer unit. This heat transfer unit takes advantage of the waste heat from the engine and the exhaust gas via heat transition.
Special characteristics
The heat exchangers are dimensioned in conformity with the Pressure Vessel Directive 97/23/EEC and the pipelines are insulated wherever necessary.
2.6.1 The exhaust gas heat transfer unit
The exhaust gas heat transfer unit transfers the waste heat from the exhaust gases of the gas spark-ignition engine into the water cycle.
Components
The exhaust gas heat transfer unit has welded-in tube bottoms made of stainless steel 1.4571 and a straight tube bundle (for optimum cleaning).
The intake chamber is made of stainless steel 1.4828 and the output chamber is made of stainless steel
1.4571. The outer case is made of normal steel and has water connections on the side with flange connections in accordance with DIN.
Special characteristics
The output chamber can be disassembled so that it can be easily, ecologically and inexpensively cleaned by mechanical means.
The exhaust gas heat transfer unit is integrated into the engine cooling cycle (i.e., the inner cooling cycle). That means that it is protected from thermal tension due to insufficient heating water quality.
2.6.2 Cooling water transfer unit (Plate transfer heat unit )
The soldered plate transfer heat unit transfers the waste heat from the gas spark-ignition engine and exhaust gas into the water cycle.
Components
The plate transfer heat unit is made of a package of plates that is soldered with 99.99% copper in the vacuum process.
Every second plate is rotated 180° on the plane which forms two flow spaces separated from one another where media (engine cooling water and heating water) is conducted in the counterflow. The stamping of the plates causes a highly turbulent flowthrough that allows highly effective heat transfer even at low volume flows.
Special characteristics
The heat transfer unit is designed without a frame for mounting the pipelines and the material for the plates is stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI316).
2.6.3 Mixed cooling
Mixed cooling is done in two stages. Both stages are integrated into the internal engine
cooling circuit in the EM-363/498 model. The high-temperature stage is only integrated into the
engine cooling water cycle in the EM-401/549 model. The low-temperature stage should be separately supplied with external cooling water.
IMPORTANT
The system pressure in the low­temperature stage may not be in excess of 2 bar. Otherwise, the customer should use a heat exchanger to separate the hydraulic system.

5414 733 09/2009
2.7 Exhaust gas purification system
After purifying the exhaust gas, it is conducted through the exhaust gas heat transfer unit that is mounted in the frame in a lying position.
An oxidation catalyst (oxidising CO and CnHm) reduces the pollution emissions of the exhaust gas.
Components
The active catalytic coating is applied to heat resistant steel. The monolithic metallic substrate consists of stainless steel ferritic sheeting with walls 0.04 mm thick. The casing is made of stainless steel with high temperature-resistance. The exhaust gas output flange is mounted on the connecting side of the cogeneration module.
Special characteristics
The operating temperature of the catalyst is limited to less than 700° C to avoid early ageing.
The catalyst is integrated into the exhaust gas line after the engine to be service-friendly and the lambda probe for lambda1.6 operation is installed immediately after the engine output in the exhaust gas system of the cogeneration module.
2.8 Lubricating oil supply system
Each cogeneration module has equipment for monitoring the lubricating oil level. You can observe and check the oil level with the inspection glass. You can check the minimum and maximum levels with an alarm contact via electrical level control. The oil consumption is covered from a lubricating oil storage tank with a volume designed for one maintenance interval.
The quantity of used oil can be drained from the cogeneration module with a free slope. It is collected and disposed of in a used oil drum. The fresh oil is generally filled with 20-litre tins.
Components
The lubricating oil supply system consists of a lubricating oil level guard, inspection glass and electrical level control with an alarm contact (oil minimum and oil maximum) and a refilling contact with valve triggering, a lubricating oil storage tank, a fresh oil tank (with an external consumption display), a filling connection, a drip oil tub and a collecting tub (under the cogeneration module),
Special characteristics
The drip oil and collecting tub take the entire content from the engine oil tub, the fresh oil tank and the engine cooling water for reasons of safety. This means that it satisfies the requirements of the Wasserhaushaltsgesetz (German Water Resources Act).
2.9 OPTIONAL Sound insulation hood
and exhaust ventilator cowl
The lining of the cogeneration module consists of the noise insulation hood and elements for the engine/alternator unit and the linings of the heat exchanger unit. The exhaust ventilator cowl ventilates the cogeneration module.
Components
The sound insulation elements consist of steel sheeting lined with combination elements made of composite foam (200 kg/m³) and highly absorptive soft foam with an additional surface skin. The coating is 25 µm thin and it is largely resistant to benzene and engine oil splashing and easy to clean. The surface sealing protects from mechanical damage and has a high level of durability. Fire properties in accordance with FMVSS 302 or DIN 75200.
The combustion air suction is on the roof lining outside of the noise hood.
Fresh air is suctioned on the side of the aggregate sound lining.
The hood’s frequency medium for dampening noise is approximately 20 dB. The subsequent heavy canvas connection is contained in the scope of delivery.
Special characteristics
The load-bearing construction can be disassembled for inspection to work with suitable hoisting gear without obstructions.
The lining of the cogeneration module can be easily removed for assembly work.
2 exhaust ventilator cowls have a maximum of 500 Pa pressing for stable operating properties at higher air inlet temperatures up to approximately 35 ° C.

2.13 Check-list for stand-by operation
The following items should be discussed with the manufacturer of the block-type thermal power plant and resolved when planning the systems of the block­type thermal power plant in stand-by operation or systems in accordance with VDE 0108.
The operating mode of the substitute network
system? At least one single-line diagram should be submitted for resolution. The switches to be triggered by the block-type thermal power plant should be stated or marked in the plan.
What loads have to be supplied?
A list of the highest-performance consumers giving the outputs and currents. Then the manufacturer of the block-type thermal power plant defines the acceptable load connection. It might be necessary for the customer to provide a load-shedding switch after consultation.
Protective measure: The customer should check
the selectivity of the fuses.
The acceptable hot-water return temperature with
block-type thermal power systems for stand-by operation is no more than 65° C in parallel and stand-by operation. That means that these block­type thermal power systems are not only suited to supplying absorption refrigerating machines.
The main gas magnetic valve, the network section
switch and the corresponding open-circuit shunt release have to have a battery-buffered voltage supply. 230 V supply voltage for the main gas magnetic valve or network section switch is not permitted. The main gas magnetic valve and the drive of the network section switch are not supplied by the block-type thermal power plant.
The triggering and feedback from the switches are
placed with the customer’s electrician and the supplier of the block-type thermal power plant.
If the higher-level regulation provided by the
customer cannot guarantee automatic restart without malfunctions after mains malfunction, the fault messages from the plant systems provided by the customer such as heating or ventilation may make the block-type thermal power plant switch off if there is a mains failure due to such things as a lack of heat reduction. In this case, the higher­level regulation should be equipped with a separate uninterruptible power supply.
Stand-by operation should be tested immediately
after starting up the block-type thermal power plant with everyone involved. If this is not possible, it will be necessary to have a second date that will be charged according to expenditures.
Sprinkler pump supply is subject to the more
stringent VdS regulations so that is cannot be assured with the normal design of a block-type thermal power plant.
The appropriate process control technique (such
as multi-module management) should be provided with active-power load distribution if several cogeneration modules are used in stand-by operation.
We do not recommend switching the block-type
thermal power plant up to any emergency-power diesel alternator because the gas and diesel engines have different regulating characteristics. The basic prerequisite would be that the emergency-power diesel alternator is correspondingly equipped for parallel operation with other power alternators (such as regulating alternator voltage or digital inputs for active-power load distribution on the control system of the diesel alternator).

3 Service and maintenance
There are what is known as consequential costs “connected to operation” for the cogeneration module in the form of inspection, service and maintenance.
The cogeneration module is exposed to many factors such as wear and tear, ageing, corrosion and thermal/mechanical loads as a result of its intended operation. DIN 31051 designates this as wear. The design of the component parts of the cogeneration module gives them a wear reservoir that guarantees reliable operation for the cogeneration module in accordance with the operating conditions up to the impairment of their functionality. Afterwards, these parts should be replaced according to specific wear and limited-time components.
Definition of "wear parts" according to DIN 31051
Wear parts are parts that are unavoidably subject to wear due to operation and that are intended to be replaced. They essentially include spark plugs and air/oil filters. This replacement is done on a regular basis and forms what is known as “inspection and service” (regular service).
Definition of "limited-time components" according to DIN 31051
Limited-time components are parts whose service life is shorter than the service life of the entire cogeneration module and that cannot be extended by technically feasible and commercially reasonable means. They essentially include cylinder heads, bearing shells, catalysts and heat transfer units. They are replaced at longer intervals depending upon the results of inspections. This is where we talk of maintenance.
Having authorised personnel correctly service the cogeneration module is very important for its warranty and for it to function without any problems. Only original parts and the operating resources (such as lubricating oil) approved by the manufacturer of the block-type thermal power plant may be used. The operator is responsible for guaranteeing and complying with the regulations for operating resources.
IMPORTANT
Service should be carried out at least once a year and the cooling water should be changed no later than every 2 years.
NOTE
The expected service life of the cogeneration module is no less than 10 years if it is regularly serviced and maintained.

4.4 Installation
You can find detailed instructions on design in the "Natural Gas Block-Type Thermal Power Plant Series – Project Management" and in the relevant assembly instructions.
You have to bear the items below in mind for installing the cogeneration module:
- A blocked clearance as per page 30, Figure 7 in
the installation plan should be kept for operating and servicing.
- These dimensions are needed to a simple pipe
length of 10 meters; otherwise, it will be necessary to make a separate calculation.
- We recommend dimensioning the gas
connecting lines for the block-type thermal power plant to use this lane as buffer storage. This can be used to intercept fluctuations in pressure with boiler circuits.
- We recommend using a calibrated gas meter
with a G160 design.
- The optional exhaust air ventilator box can be
disassembled for installing the cogeneration module. Please let us know before delivery.
- It should not drop below the dewpoint in the
exhaust gas system. Any condensate accumulating should be continually drained. A water reservoir should be provided on the condensate output. We recommend separate exhaust gas conduction for every cogeneration module with multiple module systems. If you use a collecting exhaust gas line, it is necessary to reliably prevent the exhaust gas from flowing back into any cogeneration modules not in operation with an engine shut-off valve that is 100% sealed to exhaust gas.
- A return temperature increasing mechanism is
needed when the heating water return temperature is below 60 °C. A separate return temperature increasing mechanism should be provided with the EM­401/549 model for the low-temperature mixed cooling circuit.
- Condensate flows out of the cogeneration
module when starting in the cold state. Neutralisation is not necessary due to exhaust gas purification in accordance with ATV A251 (Nov. 1998). A water reservoir (siphon loop) should be provided with an effective water column height corresponding to the exhaust gas system pressure (a maximum of 150 mm WS) to keep the exhaust gas from flowing out through the condensate drain.
- The exhaust gas condensate should be disposed
of in accordance with applicable regulations.
4.5 Start-stop ratio
The module should be at least 120 min in operation per start (approximately 2:1 ratio of the number of operating hours to the starts). Early wear and tear in the starting equipment from shorter times is caused by operation and is not a defect.
4.6 Ecotax in Germany
You have to register your block-type thermal power plant with your main customs office before starting it up in Germany so that your block-type thermal power plant can be exempted from the petroleum (natural gas) and electricity tax. This provides a substantial improvement of 10%-35% in economic efficiency. Metering equipment may be required for this.
NOTE
All electricity generated in Germany via cogeneration has been supported since January of 2009 (2009 Cogeneration Law).

5 Important information on planning and operation
5.1 Malfunctions
Malfunctions or consequential damage due to unacceptable operating conditions are neither covered by the warranty nor any service contract. Your operational safety will be boosted if you comply with the items below:
Design
avoid clocking on-off operation and provide buffer
memory. The ratio of operating hours to starts has to be at least greater that 2 (in other words, at least two hours of operation per start). The larger the ratio of operating hours: starts, the better.
Installation space
Provide exhaust gas and exhaust air dampers in
sound-critical objects and always allow for elastic connections (i.e., compensators).
Make sure that the exhaust gas and exhaust air
lines are correctly dimensioned and conducted (because of pressure losses, rated widths and flow roaring).
Make sure that it is installed on the loosely
supplied Sylomer strips for structure-borne noise decoupling.
Do not install in the same room as a NH3
refrigerating machine.
Heating
guarantee constants and sufficient heating water
volume flow
prevent emergency shutdown due to excessive
heating water return temperatures The hot water return temperature may not be in excess of 65° C either in stand-by operation or in parallel operation.
Any return temperature increasing mechanism
should be installed as near to the cogeneration module as possible.
Provide optional heat quantity meters in the return
temperature increasing mechanism to ascertain the heat energy generated.
The stand-by operation function does not apply in
connection with operating an absorption refrigerating machine.
Exhaust gas
Sufficiently dimension the exhaust gas cross-
section (no more than 10 m/s of the flow speed).
Use a suitable qualification approval exhaust gas
pipe (with a wall thickness of at least 1 mm made of stainless steel and connections pressure­resistant to pulsation to 4,000 Pa).
Free drainage should be provided for the
condensate water with at least a 3% inclination over the siphon (U pipe) at a height of approximately 150 mm for keeping exhaust gas from escaping from the condensate water drain.
Ventilation
Provide cooling and combustion air that is not
preheated and free of dust/halogen.
Provide sufficient fresh air supply and reliably carry
off warm exhaust air.
Provide separate air inlet suction in the swimming
pool (if the air contains chlorine).
Fuel
Maintain gas flow pressure of 25-50 mbar and a
methane number 80.
Overdimension the inlet as a pressure buffer.
Optional gas quantity meters generally measure
the operational cubic meters. These readings should be converted into normal cubic meters (z Number) in accordance with the guidelines of DVGW-TRGI G 600.
Electro
The block-type thermal power plant generates
electric power at 400 V. For reasons of safety, it has sensitive electrical nozzle protection equipment that reacts to asynchronous network loads in the customer’s network in accordance with the regulations. Safety shutdowns are not a malfunction of the block-type thermal power plant.
If the electrical loads in stand-by operation are
incorrectly dimensioned, this may cause emergency shutdown due to overloading (inductive or capacitive starting currents are as much as 20 times the rated current, which can overload the block-type thermal power plant).
Always avoid shutting down under full load since
the component parts are subject to maximum mechanical loads.
The cogeneration modules have to be connected
to the equipotential bonding rail provided by the customer via an earthing cable.
Service + Operating resources
regular service and care by qualified personnel.
We recommend signing a service contract.
Clean up drip leaks, dispose of old oil correctly and
regularly check the exhaust gas condensate lines to see if they are in good working order.
Disconnect the batteries if there are longer
interruptions to operations when shutting down the module and preserve the module when it is shut down for longer than 24 hours.
