BAC Series 1500 HXV hybrid coolers are a proven cost-effective method of cooling condenser water loops and industrial processes. The HXV Combined Flow HYBRID COOLER brings you the best of both evaporative and dry cooling in a water saving and energy-efficient solution. The HXV maintains peak system performance for a variety of applications where water is scarce, water costs are high, uptime is critical, or plume is a concern.
This standard covers various aspects of the design, installation, commissioning, cleaning, operation and maintenance of air conditioning systems including cooling water systems. All aspects of the standard are applicable for evaporative equipment. It is imperative that the equipment you buy is designed or modified to meet local standards. Beware that most imported product does not comply which may leave designers, contractors and owners vulnerable to risk of prosecution in the case of micro-biological outbreak.
This standard provides designers, manufacturers, contractors and owner/operators of machinery with requirements to reduce the risks of working with, or near, machinery. In particular, this standard is applicable to ingress of equipment via access and guarding requirements. Beware that most imported product does not comply which may leave designers, contractors and owners vulnerable to risk of prosecution in the case of accident.
This standard identifies the minimum requirements for fixed platforms, walkways, stairways and ladders - Design, construction and installation. It is important to to understand that imported equipment seldom meets this standard which is dimensionally product and site specific. The absence of compliant access may impede inspection, monitoring and maintenance of equipment, while non-compliant access may impede or impact site safety.
Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) standards specify the minimum level of energy performance that electrical equipment (products) must meet or exceed before they can be offered for sale or used for commercial purposes in Australia.
