This Part of BS 6332 specifies the thermal efficiency requirements and associated methods of test for gas-fired appliances consisting of a fanned-circulation ducted-air heater of rated heat input not exceeding 60 kW1) combined with a circulator of rated heat input not exceeding 8 kW1). The combined appliance is usually of integral construction, the circulator being fitted inside the air heater casing.

It also covers fanned-circulation ducted-air heaters which are designed to be fitted with circulators, as a purchaser’s option.

This standard only applies to circulators intended for use as an integral part of the combined appliance. Circulators intended for independent use are covered by BS 6332-1.

This Part covers appliances of the following categories, as described in A.1.3 of BS 4947:1984:

IT, IN, IL/P;

IITN, IINL, IINL/B, IINL/P;

III, IIITNL/B, IIITNL/P;

and of the following types, as defined in BS 1179-6:1980:

type B: open-flued appliances;

type C: room-sealed appliances;

type C1: balanced-flue appliances;

type C2: Se-duct appliances.

This Part is only applicable to the appliances listed above that comply with BS 5258-9.
