Associated causal chains

This component is part ofInstallation causal chains— from cause to effect (gas quality → engine → exhaust gas → heat → efficiency). The AI reads the entire chain, not just the individual value.

Link with the entire installation

A CHP unit is never alone: electricity, heat and gas are linked, and with PV and battery storage, it becomes a system. The AI calculates the entire installation.

Frequently asked questions

What does a high CO value in the CHP exhaust gases mean?
A high CO value indicates incomplete combustion or a faulty oxidation catalyst.
Why is the coupling of CO and HC important?
High CO values are often accompanied by an increase in hydrocarbons (HC) such as formaldehyde, which reduces the efficiency of exhaust gas treatment.
From when must the catalyst be replaced?
A sustained increase in the CO value after the catalyst signals degradation and requires a technical inspection or replacement.
What role does TA-Luft play in measuring CO?
TA-Luft defines the permitted emission limits; monitoring ensures that the CHP unit is operated within the legal framework.
How does temperature influence the concentration of CO?
Exhaust gas temperatures that are too low can prevent the catalytic conversion of CO to CO2 and thus increase values.
Is continuous measurement necessary?
Yes, continuous monitoring allows for identifying trends and preventing uncontrolled limit exceedances.
