Storage periods
Lagerzeiten ≤ 1 Jahr verkürzen nicht die konstruktionsbedingte Lebensdauer / Storage time ≤ 1 year does not reduce the designed lifetime /
DUNGS recommends a maximum storage period of 3 years
The Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) and the Directive on the energy performance
of buildings (EPBD) require a regular inspection of heat generators to guarantee a high
degree of long-term eciency and thus minimal environmental impact.
There is a need to replace safety-related components after they reach the end of
their useful life:
