AS/NZS 5263.1.3:2016 PDF Download

The AS/NZS 5263.1.3:2016 standard specifies the specifications and testing procedures for gas space heating units. It applies to devices like convectors, radiant convectors, and wall furnaces and supplements the general standards listed in AS 5263.0.

The standard encompasses appliances that burn natural gas, municipal gas, liquefied petroleum gas, and tempered liquefied petroleum gas (TLP) as fuel sources. It also covers natural draught and fan-assisted combustion systems. It states that the energy input for other appliances should not exceed 150 MJ/h, whereas the energy input for direct-fired air heaters should not exceed 50 MJ/h.

This standard's goal is to guarantee the effectiveness, performance, and safety of gas space heating equipment. It offers recommendations for producers, installers, and regulatory bodies so they may make sure these appliances comply with regulations and go through the necessary testing.
