Aksa Elazığ Doğalgaz Dağıtım A.Ş. is the natural gas distributor for Elazığ; on the GAZBİR list it is one of the Aksa group companies. This page covers the calculation values GazPlan uses when you draw an indoor installation project in its area, where the company specification stands and the steps towards project approval.
Rules: TS 7363 common
The Aksa Elazığ specification
For Aksa Elazığ projects, Aksa's shared rules document (Indoor Installation Design and Application Rules, 2019 Rev.01) applies and has been built into GazPlan. It refers the calculation values to TS 7363:2018, so until we have the text of the standard the limits come from a common profile, based on TS 7363 general rules; they will be updated when it 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.
- No tee branch is made at the meter outlet just before the pipe enters the flat (art. 2.9).
- Inlet valves are of the lockable type and unused outlets are sealed and blanked (art. 2.7); the main shut-off valve and the meter valve carry an OPEN-CLOSED sign (art. 2.5).
- Type C or condensing appliances up to 50 kW may be placed outdoors in a ventilated cabinet (art. 2.15).
Values of the common profile
| Service box → meter loss limit | 1 mbar |
|---|---|
| Meter → appliance loss limit | 0.8 mbar |
| Velocity limit (low pressure) | 6 m/s |
| Friction loss, steel | formula at all flows (23.2·R·Q^1.82/D^4.82, R = 0.6) |
| Efficiency in appliance flow | 90% at 70 kW and above |
| Isometric angle | 30° |
