1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the energy assessment of domestic/sanitary hot water storage
tanks of up to 2 000 l.
Whilst this document does not cover water heaters intended primarily for direct heating, it does allow
the provision of electric heating elements for auxiliary use.
Primary heating buffer tanks are not covered by this document. Heat losses of domestic hot water
storage tanks integrated into combi boilers marketed as a single unit are not covered by this document.
2 Normative references
There are no normative references in this document.

4 Requirements on the test rig
4.1 Environment
The ambient temperature shall be (20 ± 3) °C. The air speed where the ambient temperature is
measured (see Figure 3) shall not exceed 0,25 m/s.
The relative humidity shall be lower than 85 %.
The water heater shall be protected from radiation from the environment.
The cold water temperature T shall be between 8 °C and 18 °C and shall not vary more than ± 1 K
c
during the test.
If the cold water temperature differs from the given temperature range, the measurement shall take
place with the according temperature differences.
4.2 Measuring accuracy
4.2.1 Temperature
Temperatures shall be measured with a minimum accuracy of ± 1 K. It shall be guaranteed by
appropriate installation of the temperature probes that on the measuring points the medium caloric
temperature of the water is measured. The time constant for the temperature measurement shall not be
larger than 5 s.
4.2.2 Mass and volume flow
The mass and volume flow of the water shall be measured with minimum accuracy of 1 %.
4.2.3 Time
The time shall be measured with a minimum accuracy of ± 1 s.
4.2.4 Electrical energy
Electrical energy shall be measured with a measurement instrument with a range appropriate to the
tank being assessed, the minimum accuracy shall be 1 % or a maximum bandwidth of ± 10 Wh.
4.2.5 Measurement cycle time
The cycle time for the measurement after 5.4 shall not be larger than 10 s.
For all other measurements according to Clause 5 the cycle time should not be larger than 60 s.
4.2.6 Volume
The actual storage volume of the storage tank shall be measured within an accuracy of ± 1 %.
5 Measurements
5.1 General
The delivered storage tank, as produced by the manufacturer, shall be tested.
For storage tanks in a product range which have the same constructional design, the testing of only the
smallest and the largest storage tank shall be sufficient, provided the ratio of the nominal volume of the
smallest to largest storage tank is less than or equal to 2: 1. If, however, within the same product range,
this ratio is larger than 2: 1, then so many intermediate sizes shall be tested so that the ratio of 2: 1 from
the higher volume size to the lower volume size is not exceeded.
