Mechanical installation for a low carbon district heating energy centre
PEMEC delivered the turnkey mechanical installation package inside a low carbon energy centre supplying a UK district heating network.
Project objective
Install the mechanical plant safely and to the approved design, then hand it over with a fully auditable QA package that protects the long-term integrity of the network.
Project scope
The mechanical installation scope included:
- Preconstruction and buildability input
- Prefabrication of steelwork and pipework, leaving green ends for final site measure
- Installation of heat pumps and associated equipment
- Pipework and inline equipment installation
- Fire-rated ductwork installation
- Pipework support solutions coordinated around existing services
- Controlled hydraulic testing with calibrated test equipment
- Calibrated torque-wrench verification of flanged joints, to manufacturer-approved torque data
- ITP, test certification and O&M handover
Approach and delivery
Turnkey mechanical delivery covered fabrication, installation, testing and QA close-out through to handover.
Prefabrication used a green-end approach, with final connections site-measured to avoid rework. All running lengths were site-welded in line with the client's Employer's Requirements, avoiding long-term flange maintenance.
The project was delivered on budget, including variations agreed throughout the project.
