The Gas Heating Furnace Test Bench (Model WH-BG04-803A) is a performance and safety station for gas heating furnaces and combi (heating + domestic hot water) boilers. It measures thermal efficiency, heating output, combustion conditions and safety protection, producing traceable efficiency data for export certification. The bench is built for manufacturers that must prove both the heating performance and the safety of furnace and combi products.
For wall-hung boilers specifically, the dedicated wall-hung boiler test bench covers the same core functions; for standalone efficiency determination the thermal efficiency test system provides the precise heat-input and useful-output measurement.
What the Bench Tests
- Thermal efficiency — useful heat output against gas input; see thermal efficiency & CO testing.
- Heating output — rated heating capacity and output stability.
- Combustion conditions — flame stability and CO emission.
- Gas tightness & safety — leak testing and protection functions; see gas tightness testing.
- Dual function (combi) — heating and DHW modes where applicable.
Standards & Compliance
Furnace and combi boilers are configured to EN 15502 / EN 297 and the relevant GB standards; see the EN 15502 guide and wall-hung boiler certification testing. General gas-appliance safety follows IEC 60335-2-102; available evidence is listed on certifications.
How It Works
- Connect the furnace to gas, heating circuit, water (for DHW) and flue-gas sensors.
- Set the rated and boundary operating points in the control software.
- Measure output, efficiency, combustion and safety response.
- Export traceable data for certification and QC records.
Key Features
- Efficiency-focused measurement for furnaces and combi boilers.
- Heating output and combustion verification.
- Safety and gas-tightness testing.
- Automatic data recording and report export.
- EN / GB configuration with custom fixtures.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this for furnaces or wall-hung boilers?
The bench covers gas heating furnaces and combi boilers; for wall-hung-only production, see the dedicated wall-hung boiler test bench.
How is efficiency measured?
Useful heat is compared with gas input per the applicable EN/GB method; the thermal efficiency test system provides the dedicated measurement.
Which standards apply?
EN 15502 / EN 297 and GB standards, with IEC 60335-2-102 general safety.
