TsTP decryption. Individual heating point (ITP): scheme, principle of operation, operation

The heat point is called a structure that serves to connect local heat consumption systems to heat networks. Thermal points are divided into central (CTP) and individual (ITP). Central heating stations are used to supply heat to two or more buildings, ITPs are used to supply heat to one building. If there is a CHP in each individual building, an ITP is required, which performs only those functions that are not provided for in the CHP and are necessary for the heat consumption system of this building. In the presence of its own source of heat (boiler room), the heating point is usually located in the boiler room.

Thermal points house equipment, pipelines, fittings, control, management and automation devices, through which the following are carried out:

Conversion of coolant parameters, for example, to reduce the temperature of network water in the design mode from 150 to 95 0 C;

Control of coolant parameters (temperature and pressure);

Regulation of coolant flow and its distribution among heat consumption systems;

Shutdown of heat consumption systems;

Protection of local systems from an emergency increase in coolant parameters (pressure and temperature);

Filling and make-up of heat consumption systems;

Accounting for heat flows and coolant flow rates, etc.

On fig. 8 is given one of the possible concepts of individual heating point with an elevator for heating the building. The heating system is connected through the elevator if it is necessary to reduce the water temperature for the heating system, for example, from 150 to 95 0 С (in the design mode). At the same time, the available pressure in front of the elevator, sufficient for its operation, must be at least 12-20 m of water. Art., and the pressure loss does not exceed 1.5 m of water. Art. As a rule, one system or several small systems with similar hydraulic characteristics and with a total load of no more than 0.3 Gcal/h are connected to one elevator. For large required pressures and heat consumption, mixing pumps are used, which are also used for automatic control of the heat consumption system.

ITP connection to the heating network is made by a valve 1. Water is purified from suspended particles in the sump 2 and enters the elevator. From the elevator, water with a design temperature of 95 0 С is sent to the heating system 5. The water cooled in the heating devices returns to the ITP with a design temperature of 70 0 С. .

Constant flow hot network water provides automatic regulator RR consumption. The PP regulator receives an impulse for regulation from pressure sensors installed on the supply and return pipelines of the ITP, i.e. it reacts to the pressure difference (pressure) of water in the specified pipelines. The water pressure can change due to an increase or decrease in water pressure in the heating network, which is usually associated in open networks with a change in water consumption for the needs of hot water supply.


for example If the water pressure increases, then the water flow in the system increases. In order to avoid overheating of the air in the rooms, the regulator will reduce its flow area, thereby restoring the previous water flow.

The constancy of water pressure in the return pipeline of the heating system is automatically provided by the pressure regulator RD. A drop in pressure may be due to water leaks in the system. In this case, the regulator will reduce the flow area, the water flow will decrease by the amount of leakage and the pressure will be restored.

Water (heat) consumption is measured by a water meter (heat meter) 7. Water pressure and temperature are controlled, respectively, by manometers and thermometers. Gate valves 1, 4, 6 and 8 are used to turn on or off the substation and the heating system.

Depending on the hydraulic features of the heating network and local system heating in a heat point can also be installed:

A booster pump on the return pipeline of the ITP, if the available pressure in the heating network is insufficient to overcome the hydraulic resistance of the pipelines, ITP equipment and heating systems. If at the same time the pressure in the return pipeline is lower than the static pressure in these systems, then the booster pump is installed on the ITP supply pipeline;

A booster pump on the ITP supply pipeline, if the network water pressure is not enough to prevent water from boiling at the top points of heat consumption systems;

Shut-off valve on the supply line at the inlet and booster pump with safety valve on the return pipeline at the outlet, if the pressure in the IHS return pipeline may exceed the allowable pressure for the heat consumption system;

The shut-off valve on the supply pipeline at the inlet to the ITP, as well as the safety and check valve s on the return pipeline at the outlet of the IHS, if the static pressure in the heating network exceeds the allowable pressure for the heat consumption system, etc.

1, 4, 6, 8 - valves; T - thermometers; M - pressure gauges; 2 - sump; 3 - elevator; 5 - radiators of the heating system; 7 - water meter (heat meter); RR - flow regulator; RD - pressure regulator

As shown in fig. 5 and 6 DHW systems are connected in the ITP to the supply and return pipelines through water heaters or directly, through a mixing temperature controller of the TRZH type.

With direct water withdrawal, water is supplied to the TRZH from the supply or from the return or from both pipelines together, depending on the temperature of the return water (Fig. 9). for example, in summer, when the network water is 70 0 С, and the heating is turned off, only water from the supply pipeline enters the DHW system. The non-return valve is used to prevent the flow of water from the supply pipeline to the return pipeline in the absence of water intake.

For residential and public buildings the scheme of two-stage serial connection of DHW water heaters is also widely used (Fig. 10). In this scheme tap water is first heated in the 1st stage heater, and then in the 2nd stage heater. In this case, tap water passes through the tubes of the heaters. In the heater of the 1st stage, tap water is heated by return network water, which, after cooling, goes to the return pipeline. In the second stage heater, tap water is heated by hot network water from the supply pipeline. The cooled network water enters the heating system. AT summer period this water is supplied to the return pipeline through a jumper (to the bypass of the heating system).

The flow rate of hot network water to the 2nd stage heater is regulated by the temperature controller (thermal relay valve) depending on the temperature of the water downstream of the 2nd stage heater.

An individual heating point is designed to save heat, regulate supply parameters. This is a complex located in a separate room. It can be used in a private or multi-apartment building. ITP (individual heating point), what it is, how it is arranged and functions, we will consider in more detail.

ITP: tasks, functions, purpose

By definition, ITP is a heat point that heats buildings in whole or in part. The complex receives energy from the network (central heating substation, central heating unit or boiler house) and distributes it to consumers:

  • GVS (hot water supply);
  • heating;
  • ventilation.

At the same time, there is the possibility of regulation, since the heating mode in the living room, basement, warehouse is different. The ITP has the following main tasks.

  • Accounting for heat consumption.
  • Protection from accidents, monitoring of parameters for safety.
  • Shutdown of the consumption system.
  • Uniform distribution of heat.
  • Adjustment of characteristics, management of temperature and other parameters.
  • Coolant conversion.

Buildings are retrofitted to install ITPs, which is costly but rewarding. The item is located in a separate technical or basement, an extension to the house or a separately located nearby structure.

Benefits of having an ITP

Significant costs for the establishment of an ITP are allowed due to the advantages that follow from the presence of an item in the building.

  • Profitability (in terms of consumption - by 30%).
  • Reducing operating costs by up to 60%.
  • Heat consumption is monitored and accounted for.
  • Mode optimization reduces losses by up to 15%. It takes into account the time of day, weekends, weather.
  • Heat is distributed according to consumption conditions.
  • Consumption can be adjusted.
  • The type of coolant is subject to change if necessary.
  • Low accident rate, high operational safety.
  • Full process automation.
  • Noiselessness.
  • Compactness, dependence of dimensions on loading. Item can be placed in the basement.
  • Maintenance of heating points does not require numerous personnel.
  • Provides comfort.
  • The equipment is completed under the order.

Controlled heat consumption, the ability to influence performance attracts in terms of savings, rational resource consumption. Therefore, it is considered that the costs are recouped within an acceptable period.

Types of TP

The difference between TP is in the number and types of consumption systems. Features of the type of consumer predetermine the scheme and characteristics of the required equipment. The method of installation and arrangement of the complex in the room differs. There are the following types.

  • ITP for a single building or part of it, located in the basement, technical room or adjacent building.
  • TsTP - the central TP serves a group of buildings or objects. It is located in one of the basements or a separate building.
  • BTP - block heat point. Includes one or more blocks manufactured and delivered in production. Features compact installation, used to save space. Can perform the function of ITP or TsTP.

Principle of operation

The design scheme depends on the energy source and the specifics of consumption. The most popular is independent, for a closed DHW system. The principle of operation of the ITP is as follows.

  1. The heat carrier comes to the point through the pipeline, giving the temperature to the heaters for heating, hot water and ventilation.
  2. The heat carrier goes to the return pipeline to the heat generating enterprise. Reused, but some may be used up by the consumer.
  3. Heat losses are compensated by make-up available in CHP and boiler houses (water treatment).
  4. AT thermal plant tap water enters through the cold water pump. Part of it goes to the consumer, the rest is heated by the 1st stage heater, going to the DHW circuit.
  5. The DHW pump moves water in a circle, passing through the TP, the consumer, returns with a partial flow.
  6. The 2nd stage heater operates regularly when the fluid loses heat.

The coolant (in this case, water) moves along the circuit, which is facilitated by 2 circulation pumps. Its leakages are possible, which are replenished by make-up from the primary heating network.

circuit diagram

This or that ITP scheme has features that depend on the consumer. A central heat supplier is important. The most common option is closed system DHW with independent accession heating. A heat carrier enters the TP through the pipeline, is realized when heating water for the systems and returns. For return, there is a return pipeline going to the main to the central point - the heat generation enterprise.

Heating and hot water supply are arranged in the form of circuits along which a heat carrier moves with the help of pumps. The first one is usually designed as a closed cycle with possible leaks replenished from the primary network. And the second circuit is circular, equipped with pumps for hot water supply, which supplies water to the consumer for consumption. In case of heat loss, heating is carried out by the second heating stage.

ITP for different consumption purposes

Being equipped for heating, the IHS has an independent circuit in which a plate heat exchanger is installed with 100% load. Pressure loss is prevented by installing a double pump. Make-up is carried out from the return pipeline in thermal networks. Additionally, the TP is completed with metering devices, a hot water supply unit in the presence of other necessary units.


ITP designed for hot water supply is independent circuit. In addition, it is parallel and single-stage, equipped with two plate heat exchangers loaded at 50%. There are pumps that compensate for the decrease in pressure, metering devices. Other nodes are expected. Such heat points operate according to an independent scheme.

It is interesting! The principle of implementation of district heating for the heating system can be based on a plate heat exchanger with 100% load. And the DHW has a two-stage scheme with two similar devices loaded by 1/2 each. Pumps for various purposes compensate for the decreasing pressure and feed the system from the pipeline.

For ventilation, a plate heat exchanger with 100% load is used. DHW is provided by two such devices, loaded by 50%. Through the operation of several pumps, the pressure level is compensated and make-up is made. Addition - accounting device.

Installation steps

The TP of a building or object undergoes a step-by-step procedure during installation. The mere desire of the tenants in apartment building not enough.

  • Obtaining the consent of the owners of the premises of a residential building.
  • Application to heat supply companies for designing in a particular house, development of technical specifications.
  • Issuance of specifications.
  • Inspection of a residential or other object for the project, determining the availability and condition of equipment.
  • Automatic TP will be designed, developed and approved.
  • The contract is concluded.
  • The ITP project for a residential building or other object is being implemented, tests are being carried out.

Attention! All stages can be completed in a couple of months. The care is assigned to the responsible specialized organization. To be successful, a company must be well established.

Operational safety

The automatic heat point is serviced by properly qualified employees. The staff is familiar with the rules. There are also prohibitions: automation does not start if there is no water in the system, pumps do not turn on if the input is blocked shut-off valves.
Need to control:

  • pressure parameters;
  • noises;
  • vibration level;
  • engine heating.

The control valve must not be subjected to excessive force. If the system is under pressure, the regulators are not disassembled. Pipelines are flushed before start-up.

Approval for operation

The operation of AITP complexes (automated ITP) requires a permit, for which documentation is provided to Energonadzor. These are the technical conditions for connection and a certificate of their execution. Need:

  • agreed project documentation;
  • act of responsibility for operation, balance of ownership from the parties;
  • act of readiness;
  • heat points must have a passport with heat supply parameters;
  • readiness of the heat energy metering device - document;
  • certificate of the existence of an agreement with the energy company to ensure heat supply;
  • act of acceptance of work from the company producing the installation;
  • Order appointing a person responsible for the maintenance, serviceability, repair and safety of the ATP (automated heating point);
  • a list of persons responsible for the maintenance of AITP units and their repair;
  • a copy of the document on the qualification of the welder, certificates for electrodes and pipes;
  • acts on other actions, executive scheme the facility is an automated heat supply unit, including pipelines, fittings;
  • an act on pressure testing, flushing of heating, hot water supply, which includes an automated point;
  • briefing.


An admission certificate is drawn up, magazines are started: operational, on briefing, issuing orders, detecting defects.

ITP of an apartment building

An automated individual heating point in a multi-storey residential building transports heat from the central heating station, boiler houses or CHP (combined heat and power plant) to heating, hot water supply and ventilation. Such innovations (automatic heat point) save up to 40% or more of heat energy.

Attention! The system uses the source − heating network to which it connects. The need for coordination with these organizations.

A lot of data is required to calculate the modes, load and savings results for payment in housing and communal services. Without this information, the project will not be completed. Without approval, ITP will not issue a permit for operation. Residents receive the following benefits.

  • Greater accuracy in the operation of devices to maintain temperature.
  • Heating is carried out with a calculation that includes the state of the outside air.
  • Amounts for services on utility bills are reduced.
  • Automation simplifies facility maintenance.
  • Reduced repair costs and staffing levels.
  • Finances are saved for the consumption of thermal energy from a centralized supplier (boiler houses, thermal power plants, central heating stations).

Conclusion: how the savings work

The heating point of the heating system is equipped with a metering unit during commissioning, which is a guarantee of savings. Heat consumption readings are taken from the instruments. Accounting itself does not reduce costs. The source of savings is the possibility of changing modes and the absence of overestimation of indicators by energy supply companies, their exact determination. It will be impossible to write off additional costs, leaks, expenses on such a consumer. Payback occurs within 5 months, as an average value with savings of up to 30%.

Automated supply of coolant from a centralized supplier - heating mains. Installation of a modern heating and ventilation unit makes it possible to take into account seasonal and daily temperature changes during operation. Correction mode - automatic. Heat consumption is reduced by 30% with a payback of 2 to 5 years.

When it comes to the rational use of thermal energy, everyone immediately recalls the crisis and the incredible bills for "fat" provoked by it. In new houses, where engineering solutions are provided that allow you to regulate the consumption of thermal energy in each individual apartment, you can find best option heating or hot water supply (DHW), which will suit the tenant. For old buildings, the situation is much more complicated. Individual heating points become the only reasonable solution to the problem of saving heat for their inhabitants.

Definition of ITP - individual heating point

According to the textbook definition, an ITP is nothing more than a heating point designed to serve the whole building or its individual parts. This dry formulation needs some explanation.

The functions of an individual heating point are to redistribute the energy coming from the network (central heating point or boiler room) between ventilation, hot water and heating systems, in accordance with the needs of the building. This takes into account the specifics of the premises served. Residential, warehouse, basement and other types of them, of course, should also differ in temperature regime and ventilation settings.

Installation of ITP implies the presence of a separate room. Most often, the equipment is mounted in the basement or technical rooms high-rise buildings, outbuildings apartment buildings or in detached buildings located in close proximity.

Modernization of the building by installing ITP requires significant financial costs. Despite this, the relevance of its implementation is dictated by the advantages that promise undoubted benefits, namely:

  • coolant consumption and its parameters are subject to accounting and operational control;
  • distribution of the coolant throughout the system depending on the conditions of heat consumption;
  • regulation of the coolant flow, in accordance with the requirements that have arisen;
  • the possibility of changing the type of coolant;
  • increased level of safety in case of accidents and others.

The ability to influence the process of coolant consumption and its energy performance is attractive in itself, not to mention the savings from rational use thermal resources. One-time costs for ITP equipment pay off in a very modest amount of time.

The structure of an ITP depends on which consumption systems it serves. In general, it can be equipped with systems for providing heating, hot water supply, heating and hot water supply, as well as heating, hot water supply and ventilation. Therefore, the ITP must include the following devices:

  1. heat exchangers for the transfer of thermal energy;
  2. valves of locking and regulating action;
  3. instruments for monitoring and measuring parameters;
  4. pump equipment;
  5. control panels and controllers.

Here are only the devices that are present on all ITPs, although each specific option may have additional nodes. The source of cold water supply is usually located in the same room, for example.

The scheme of the heating substation is built using a plate heat exchanger and is completely independent. To maintain the pressure at the required level, a dual pump is installed. There is a simple way to "re-equip" the circuit with a hot water supply system and other nodes and units, including metering devices.

The operation of the ITP for hot water supply implies the inclusion in the scheme of plate heat exchangers that operate only on the load on the hot water supply. Pressure drops in this case are compensated by a group of pumps.

In the case of organizing systems for heating and hot water supply, the above schemes are combined. Plate heat exchangers for heating work together with a two-stage DHW circuit, and the heating system is replenished from the return pipeline of the heating network by means of appropriate pumps. The cold water supply network is the feeding source for the DHW system.

If it is necessary to connect a ventilation system to the ITP, then it is equipped with another plate heat exchanger connected to it. Heating and hot water continue to work according to the previously described principle, and the ventilation circuit is connected in the same way as a heating circuit with the addition of the necessary instrumentation.

Individual heating point. Principle of operation

The central heat point, which is the source of the heat carrier, supplies hot water to the inlet of the individual heat point through the pipeline. Moreover, this liquid in no way enters any of the building systems. For both heating and hot water DHW system, as well as ventilation, only the temperature of the supplied coolant is used. Energy is transferred to the systems in plate-type heat exchangers.

The temperature is transferred by the main coolant to the water taken from the cold water supply system. So, the cycle of movement of the coolant begins in the heat exchanger, passes through the path of the corresponding system, giving off heat, and returns through the return main water supply for further use to the enterprise providing heat supply (boiler room). The part of the cycle that provides for the release of heat heats the dwellings and makes the water in the taps hot.

Cold water enters the heaters from the cold water supply system. For this, a system of pumps is used to maintain the required level of pressure in the systems. Pumps and accessories are needed to reduce or increase the water pressure from the supply line to acceptable level, as well as its stabilization in building systems.

Benefits of using ITP

The four-pipe heat supply system from the central heating point, which was previously used quite often, has a lot of disadvantages that are absent from the ITP. In addition, the latter has a number of very significant advantages over its competitor, namely:

  • efficiency due to a significant (up to 30%) reduction in heat consumption;
  • the availability of devices simplifies the control of both the flow of the coolant and the quantitative indicators of thermal energy;
  • the possibility of flexible and prompt influence on heat consumption by optimizing the mode of its consumption, depending on the weather, for example;
  • ease of installation and rather modest overall dimensions of the device, allowing it to be placed in small rooms;
  • reliability and stability of the ITP, as well as a beneficial effect on the same characteristics of the serviced systems.

This list can be continued indefinitely. It reflects only the main, lying on the surface, the benefits obtained by using ITP. It can be added, for example, the ability to automate the management of ITP. In this case, its economic and operational performance becomes even more attractive to the consumer.

The most significant disadvantage of ITP, apart from transportation and handling costs, is the need to settle all sorts of formalities. Obtaining appropriate permits and approvals can be attributed to very serious tasks.

In fact, only a specialized organization can solve such problems.

Stages of installation of a heat point

It is clear that one decision, albeit a collective one, based on the opinion of all the residents of the house, is not enough. Briefly, the procedure for equipping the object, apartment building, for example, can be described as follows:

  1. in fact, a positive decision of the residents;
  2. application to the heat supply organization for the development of technical specifications;
  3. obtaining technical specifications;
  4. pre-project survey of the object, to determine the condition and composition of the existing equipment;
  5. development of the project with its subsequent approval;
  6. conclusion of an agreement;
  7. project implementation and commissioning tests.

The algorithm may seem, at first glance, rather complicated. In fact, all the work from decision to commissioning can be done in less than two months. All worries should be placed on the shoulders of a responsible company that specializes in providing this kind of service and has a positive reputation. Thankfully, there are plenty of them now. It remains only to wait for the result.

The heating substation of the heating system is the place where the mains of the hot water supplier is connected to the heating system of a residential building, and the consumed heat energy is also calculated.

The nodes for connecting the system to a source of thermal energy are of two types:

  1. Single-circuit;
  2. Double-circuit.

A single-circuit heat point is the most common type of consumer connection to a heat source. In this case, a direct connection to the hot water main is used for the house heating system.

A single-circuit heating point has one characteristic detail - its scheme provides for a pipeline connecting the direct and return lines, which is called an elevator. The purpose of the elevator in the heating system should be considered in more detail.

Boilers of the heating system have three standard operating modes that differ in the temperature of the coolant (direct / reverse):

  • 150/70;
  • 130/70;
  • 90–95/70.

The use of superheated steam as a heat carrier for the heating system of a residential building is not allowed. Therefore, if by weather conditions the boiler room supplies hot water at a temperature of 150 ° C, it needs to be cooled before being supplied to the heating risers of a residential building. For this, an elevator is used, through which the "return" enters the direct line.

The elevator opens manually or electrically (automatically). An additional circulation pump can be included in its line, but usually this device is made of a special shape - with a section of a sharp narrowing of the line, after which there is a cone-shaped expansion. Due to this, it works like an injection pump, pumping water from the return.

Double-circuit heating point

In this case, the heat carriers of the two circuits of the system do not mix. To transfer heat from one circuit to another, a heat exchanger is used, usually a plate heat exchanger. The diagram of a double-circuit heat point is shown below.

A plate heat exchanger is a device consisting of a series of hollow plates, through one of which a heating liquid is pumped, and through the others it is heated. They have a very high efficiency, they are reliable and unpretentious. The amount of heat withdrawn is controlled by changing the number of plates interacting with each other, so there is no need to take chilled water from the return line.

Installation of thermal meters

The point of thermal metering devices includes:

  • Thermal sensors (installed in the forward and reverse lines);
  • flowmeters;
  • Heat calculator.

Thermal metering devices are installed as close as possible to the departmental border, so that the supplier enterprise does not calculate heat losses using incorrect methods. It's best to thermal units and flow meters had valves or valves at their inlets and outlets, then their repair and maintenance will not cause difficulties.

Advice! Before the flow meter there should be a section of the main line without changing the diameters, additional tie-ins and devices in order to reduce the flow turbulence. This will increase the accuracy of the measurement and simplify the operation of the node.

The heat calculator, which receives data from temperature sensors and flow meters, is installed in a separate lockable cabinet. Modern models This device is equipped with modems and can connect via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in local network, providing the opportunity to receive data remotely, without a personal visit to the heat metering nodes.

Homeowners know what proportion of utility bills is the cost of providing heat. Heating, hot water- something on which a comfortable existence depends, especially in the cold season. However, not everyone knows that these costs can be significantly reduced, for which it is necessary to switch to the use of individual heating points (ITPs).

Disadvantages of central heating

The traditional scheme of centralized heating works like this: from the central boiler house, the coolant flows through the mains to the centralized heating unit, where it is distributed through intra-quarter pipelines to consumers (buildings and houses). The temperature and pressure of the coolant is controlled centrally, in the central boiler room, with uniform values ​​for all buildings.

In this case, heat losses are possible on the route, when the same amount of coolant is transferred to buildings located at different distances from the boiler house. In addition, the architecture of the microdistrict is usually buildings of various heights and designs. Therefore, the same parameters of the coolant at the outlet of the boiler room do not mean the same input parameters of the coolant in each building.

The use of ITP became possible due to changes in the heat supply regulation scheme. The ITP principle is based on the fact that heat regulation is carried out directly at the inlet of the heat carrier into the building, exclusively and individually for it. To do this, heating equipment is located in an automated individual heat point - in the basement of the building, on the ground floor or in a separate building.

The principle of operation of the ITP

An individual heating point is a set of equipment with which the accounting and distribution of thermal energy and heat carrier in the heating system of a particular consumer (building) is carried out. ITP is connected to the distribution mains of the city's heat and water supply network.

The work of ITP is built on the principle of autonomy: depending on outdoor temperature the equipment changes the temperature of the coolant in accordance with the calculated values ​​and supplies it to heating system Houses. The consumer is no longer dependent on the length of highways and intra-quarter pipelines. But heat retention is completely dependent on the consumer and depends on the technical condition of the building and methods for saving heat.

Individual heat points have the following advantages:

  • regardless of the length of the heating mains, it is possible to provide the same heating parameters for all consumers,
  • the ability to provide an individual mode of operation (for example, for medical institutions),
  • there is no problem of heat loss on the heating main, instead, heat loss depends on the provision of insulation of the house by the homeowner.

ITP includes hot and cold water supply systems, as well as heating and ventilation systems. Structurally, ITP is a complex of devices: collectors, pipelines, pumps, various heat exchangers, regulators and sensors. This is a complex system, requiring adjustment, mandatory preventive maintenance and maintenance, while technical condition ITP directly affects the heat consumption. ITP controls such coolant parameters as pressure, temperature and flow. These parameters can be controlled by the dispatcher, in addition, the data is transmitted to the heating network dispatching service for recording and monitoring.

In addition to directly distributing heat, ITP helps to take into account and optimize consumption costs. Comfortable conditions with economical use of energy resources - this is the main advantage of using ITP.
