Thermal switching valve

Metallic-bodied thermal switching valves intended to automatically switch the flow of water to one of two outlets, depending upon the temperature of the inlet water. Thermal switching valves are required to operate at—

  1. continuous operating temperature not exceeding 85°C and 99°C under emergency conditions; and
  2. continuous working pressure not exceeding 1400 kPa.

WMTS-481 Thermal switching valves

Yes

Plate heat exchangers

Plate heat exchangers intended to be used in heated water supply systems for the indirect heating/cooling of water in a plumbing system. These products are components of a water heating/cooling system and designed in various configurations including number of plates, plate design and size in order to suit the installation.

They may be single or double wall construction and function with a heat exchange fluid in the primary circuit and water in the secondary circuit.

WMTS-528 Plate heat exchangers – Indirect heating/cooling of water in a plumbing system

2021

Yes
Geothermal energy heat pump system for home air conditioning and supplementary potable water heater

 

Geothermal system for air conditioning and storing energy in the water contained in a storage tank. During the cooling period, heat extracted from the ambient by the system is stored in water, and the heat transfer is facilitated by a stainless steel heat exchanger. The water is stored in an electric storage water heater. When the temperature in the tank gets to 60 degrees celsius, heat transfer from the refrigerant to the waterside is stopped by de-energizing a pump that transfers water from the storage tank to the heat exchanger and back to the storage tank. The Water Mark Certification is only for the components covered under the Plumbing Code of Australia (PCA). WaterMark Certification shall not be used to cover off on components that may lie outside the PCA scope, such as refrigeration equipment.AS 3498 Water heaters and hot-water storage tanks2020Yes
