1. Scope

1.1 This standard (Part 3) specifies requirements of solar parabolic trough collector (PTC) for process heating and steam generation for range 60°C to 250°C. The PTC shall be useful for steam generation, high pressure hot water and thermic fluid systems in the above mentioned temperature range.

1.2 This standard do not apply to PTC generating temperature > 250°, high pressure > 40 bar and superheated steam, normally used for power generation.
