1. General information

1.1. The principle of cogeneration

Cogeneration plants use an internal combustion engine to drive a generator that

generates electrical power. The resulting waste heat is used as heating energy (as shown

in Figure 1: Principle of cogeneration). Such cogeneration plants are also referred to as

combined heat and power (CHP) plants.

Figure 1: Principle of cogeneration

Cogeneration enables decentralised generation of heat and electricity. Although it has

been in use for decades, the technology based on it has only been used to a limited

extent.

The decisive step forward is the innovative control system. CHP plants with static control

only adapt moderately to the change in demand parameters. Thanks to dynamic control

modules, the CHP plant adapts to different load specifications. The CHP plant converts

the energy contained in the gas fuel with an efficiency of almost 100 %. This enormously

increases energy efficiency in the combined heat and power supply of medium-sized

properties.

It can be used in buildings with an annual electricity consumption of approx. 60,000 kWh

or more and an annual fuel consumption of approx. 150,000 kWh or more. These include,

for example, residential complexes from approx. 18 residential units, accommodation

facilities, nursing homes and senior citizens' homes, commercial properties with heating

and cooling requirements, communal facilities, churches, etc.

2. Basic information

2.1. Copyright and reservation of rights

These operating instructions are protected by copyright. The passing on and

reproduction of this document, exploitation and communication of its contents

are FORBIDDEN, unless expressly permitted in writing by Hoval. Violations will

result in damages. All rights in the event of patent, utility model or design

registration are reserved.

Hoval reserves all rights to this document and to the object depicted therein. Without the

prior written consent of Hoval, this document may not be reproduced in whole or in part,

copied or in any form made accessible to third parties in whole or in part and used outside

the purpose for which it was handed over to the recipient.

These operating instructions essentially contain information on the structure, function,

assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance of your cogeneration plant.

All appendices are integral parts of the operating instructions.

Your cogeneration plant has been built in accordance with recognised safety regulations.

However, improper use may endanger persons or cause damage to property.

2.2. Warranty

Non-compliance with the operating instructions shall invalidate the warranty, as shall any

modification or repair to the plant without the prior written consent of Hoval. Furthermore,

Hoval shall not be liable for damage or accidents caused by improper handling, excessive

strain or force majeure.

In principle, the "Standard terms and conditions of delivery" of Hoval apply. Hoval grants a

warranty / guarantee of 12 months on its combined heat and power plants starting from

the respective commissioning date or at the latest 3 months after the delivery date.

The following conditions must be met in order for the warranty to be approved:

All major customer services during the warranty period are carried out exclusively

by Hoval or a specialist company approved or authorised by Hoval.

If the plant is not put into operation within 3 months of delivery and/or notification

of readiness for dispatch, a subsequent application of corrosion protection shall be

necessary and must be paid for.

The plant is not allowed to be operated beyond the maximum rated power, which

is indicated for the respective type on the technical data sheet.

The plant must not be operated with defective or improperly installed safety and

monitoring devices.

A gas engine oil approved by Hoval must be used as engine oil. For further

information, see the "Operating materials" chapter.

The owner is not allowed to make any technical changes to the plant.

Only genuine spare and wear parts are allowed to be used for repairs.

2.3. Liability

Hoval is only liable for direct personal injury and damage to property on the basis of the

applicable product liability law if the plant is used for the purpose prescribed in the

operating instructions or for the contractually agreed use.

Hoval shall not be liable for compensation for damage that has not occurred to the plant

itself (loss of use, loss of production and profit as well as other direct or indirect losses).

2.4. Responsibilities of the owner

The CHP plant was designed and built taking into account a risk assessment and after

careful selection of the harmonised standards to be complied with and other technical

specifications. It thus corresponds to the state of the art and guarantees a maximum

of safety.

However, this safety can only be achieved in operational practice if all necessary

measures are taken. It is the duty of care of the owner of the plant to plan these measures

and to check they are carried out.

In particular, the owner must ensure that

the plant is only used for its intended purpose

the plant is only operated in perfect, functional condition and the safety devices in

particular are regularly checked for their functionality

the necessary personal protective equipment is available to the operating,

maintenance and repair personnel, and is used

the operating instructions are always available in a legible condition and complete

at the place of use of the plant

only sufficiently qualified and authorised personnel operate, maintain and repair

the plant

this personnel is regularly instructed in all applicable questions of occupational

safety and environmental protection and is familiar with the operating instructions

and in particular with the safety instructions contained therein

no safety and warning notices attached to the plant are removed and all of them

remain in a legible condition

a risk assessment (within the meaning of Article 5 of the Occupational Health and

Safety Act) is carried out to determine the other hazards arising from the special

working conditions at the location where the plant is to be used

all further instructions and safety instructions resulting from the risk assessment of

the workplaces at the plant are summarised in one operational instruction (in the

sense of Article 6 of the Work Equipment Usage Ordinance).

2.5. Standards and directives

The plant has been designed and built in accordance with the currently valid technical

rules and recognised safety regulations. The basic safety requirements, standards and

guidelines were applied in the design of the plant.

The safety of the plant is documented by the declaration of conformity.

All safety data refers to the currently valid regulations of the European Union. In other

countries, the applicable laws and regulations must be observed. In addition to the safety

instructions in these operating instructions, the accident prevention regulations for power-

operated working machines as well as the generally applicable regulations for

environmental protection must be observed and adhered to.
