Vessels and systems for air conditioning of commercial and industrial premises.

This Part of BS 7074 gives recommendations on the application of expansion vessels complying with BS 4814 having a maximum pressure of 7 bar²⁾ for use in the following two types of system. It includes description, design considerations and application.

Sections 1 and 2 cover chilled water systems.

Sections 1 and 3 cover condenser water systems.

NOTE 1 Condenser water systems are normally associated with the heat reject side of refrigeration plant.

Recommendations are also given on:

the application and use of ancillary equipment and
testing, commissioning and maintenance.

NOTE 2 The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
