Aksa Ağrı natural gas project approval and drawing – Ağrı, Türkiye
A quick note for firms preparing projects in the Aksa Ağrı area: Aksa Ağrı Doğalgaz Dağıtım A.Ş. serves Ağrı and belongs to the Aksa group. How its specification is handled in GazPlan, the calculation limits and the approval steps are set out below.
Rules: TS 7363 common
Specification status
Aksa's Indoor Installation Design and Application Rules (2019 Rev.01) have been read. The document leaves the calculation values to the TS 7363:2018 standard, and since the text of the standard has not been read, the calculation limits use a common profile, based on TS 7363 general rules. This page and the values in the app will be updated when the standard is uploaded.
Rules from the Aksa document built into the app
- DN15 is not used in welded installations inside a flat (art. 2.10); automatic sizing picks DN20 or larger.
