VGB guidelines for planning, ordering and acceptance of ventilators for steam generators/reactors. 2. enlarged ed.

The guidelines at hand serve the purpose of having a standardizing effect on planning, delivery and guarantee conditions for the orderer as well as the supplier, and thus lead to facilitating order and delivery transactions. Furthermore, these guidelines are to pave the way for a successful cooperation between everybody involved concerning the choice of ventilator (control, erosion, pollution, sound radiation, ect.) for a particular type of steam generating plant. Preconditions for realizing this are comprehensive data on the purpose the ventilator is to be used for by the orderer and also a detailed comprehensive technical offer by the manufacturer according to a proposed scheme. These guidelines include questions of installating the ventilation, giving proof of properties guaranteed, and liability in case of defects. Nature and extent of the deliveries and the observation of the guarantee terms are to be stipulated in such a way that differences of opinion at a later stage between orderer and supplier concerning the fulfilment of the delivery are to be excluded as far as possible. Questions which are to be agreed upon between manufacturer and orderer by adjusting to special local conditions or conditions relating to a special enterprise are marked in the text by a marginal stroke.
