2、tember 2015 Addendum 1 (dated September 2015) of ANSI/AHRI Standard 1351 (SI)-2014, “Changes to ANSI/AHRI Standard 1351 (SI)-2014” is provided as follows. The following changes have been incorporated (deletions are shown by strikethroughs, additions are shown by shading) into the already published 2

3、014 version of ANSI/AHRI Standard 1351 (SI) to avoid confusion: Note: This addendum is not ANSI approved and is currently going through the process to become so. The changes include: 1) Added Section 3.16. Updated all subsequent numbering. 3.16 Pressure Section. A section bounded by a Pressure Chang

4、e Wall and/or the unit end(s) and is designed to operate entirely in Positive Pressure or Negative Pressure. 2) Updated Section 6.1.3. 6.1.3 All access points must be large enough (minimum nominal width 450 mm) for a person to enter or reach in to place instrumentation, including thermal sensors, he

5、ater(s), circulating fan(s), without damaging the test unit (i.e. by enlarging existing openings or creating new ones). One access point is required between end wall and first component (either fan or coil). 3) Updated Table C1. Table C1. Requirements for Test Instrumentation Measurement Measurement

8、nt also applies to volumetric type meters. 2. Measurement system accuracy shall apply over the range of use during testing, as indicated by the Turn Down Ratio determined during calibration, i.e. from full scale down to a value of full scale divided by the Turn Down Ratio. For many types of instrume

9、nts and/or systems this may require exceeding the accuracy requirement at full scale. Percent of Reading = %RDG, %FS = percent of full scale for the measurement instrument or measurement system. If dual requirements are shown in the table, FS and RDG, then both requirements shall be met. 3. Current

10、Transformers (CTs) and Potential Transformers (PTs) shall have a metering accuracy class of 0.3 or better, rated in accordance with IEEE C57.13. 4. Display resolution shown is the minimum requirement (most coarse resolution allowable). Better (finer) resolution is acceptable for instrument or panel

11、displays, or computer screen displays. The display resolution shown is the preferred resolution for data reporting on test reports. 5. Significant figures (also known as significant digits) determined in accordance with Section 7.2 of NIST Special Publication 260-100-1993, “Handbook for SRM Users”.

12、4) Updated third paragraph of Section C5.3.4. All service access points including access doors and access panels used in lieu of an access door are included in the deflection measurement and shall be installed according to the manufacturers instructions. 5) Updated Section C5.4.3. C5.4.3 Record the

13、location of the Maximum Deflection Point on the casing drawing. Several measurements may be necessary to locate the Maximum Deflection Point. Measure and record the deflection(s) at the identified Maximum Deflection locations and the casing pressure every 5 minutes for 15 minutes. See Figure C7. 6)

14、Updated Section C5.5.1. C5.5.1 The test is valid if any measured pressure, Pi, does not vary from the mean pressure, Pa, more than 25 Pa, or 2%, whichever is greater, if any measured deflection, 1,2,3,4 , during the test does not vary from the average deflection, , by more than 0.25 mm or 5%, whiche

15、ver is greater, and if the difference between the unpressurized final deflection,final ,and the unpressurized starting deflection, start, test does not vary by more than 0.25 mm or 5%, which is greater. 7) Updated Section C6.1.1.1. C6.1.1.1 Method 1: As an assembled unit with the entire unit under n

16、egative or positive pressure. For negative pressure units, inward swinging doors shall be completely sealed and outward swinging doors shall not be sealed. In a negative pressure test, seal off all of the access points on the positive pressure side. For positive pressure units, outward swinging door

17、s shall be completely sealed and inward swinging doors shall not be sealed In a positive pressure test, seal off all of the access points on the negative pressure side.; 8) Added Section C6.5.1.1. C6.5.1.1 If the unit has a Pressure Change Wall, there will be two Casing Air Leakage Ratings, one for

18、the positive pressure section and one for the negative pressure section. 9) Updated Section C6.6.1. C6.6.1 Use the Casing Air Leakage Rate, CLx, to determine rating class. Refer to Table 2, Section 6.4. If the unit has a Pressure Change Wall, there will be 2 Casing Air Leakage Ratings, one for the p

19、ositive pressure section and one for the negative pressure section. 10) Updated Section C7.1.1. C7.1.1 The test shall be performed with distributed internal heat sources and circulating fans as needed to provide uniform internal temperatures. The heat source will be energized to provide a minimum of

20、 17C higher average internal air temperature when compared to external ambient temperature but the internal temperature should not exceed 50 C. The manufacturer shall specify the maximum temperature for testing if the product has a lower maximum allowable internal temperature than 50C. Steady state

21、is defined in Section C7.3.3. See Figures C13, C14, and C15 for some example thermal set-ups. 11) Updated Section C7.2.3 C7.2.3 A minimum of 3 Circulating fans shall be installed inside the unit CSAHU to help achieve and maintain a uniform temperature distribution inside the unit provide adequate ai

22、r mixing to achieve uniform temperature distribution and convection inside the CSAHU. At a minimum, one fan shall be located in each Pressure Section and/or in each section divided by a coil so that circulating air is obtained throughout the entire unit. At minimum, one fan shall be located in each

23、unit section bounded by any pressure change wall, coil, and/or unit end so that circulating air is obtained throughout the entire unit and provides adequate air mixing to achieve uniform temperature distribution inside the unit and simulate unit internal airflow velocities based on 2.5 m/s coil face

24、 velocity. The total airflow delivered by the circulating fan(s) in each unit section shall provide a minimum of 25 L/s per square meter of unit cross-sectional area. Multiple fans may be used to produce the required airflow. 12) Updated Section C7.2.3.1. C7.2.3.1 For example, a unit with a 2 m2 cro

25、ss-sectional area will require at least 3 circulating fan(s) each delivering 2850-3775 at least 500 L/s at free delivery per pressure section bounded by any pressure change wall, coil, and/or unit end. 13) Changed “thermocouple” to “temperature measuring device” throughout document. Ex; C7.2.5 Therm

26、ocouples Temperature measuring devices shall be distributed inside the unit to measure and verify the uniformity of the internal air temperature. Thermocouples Temperature measuring devices shall be distributed outside the unit to measure and verify the uniformity of the external air temperature. 14

For I-P ratings, see ANSI/AHRI Standard 1350 (I-P)2014. AHRI CERTIFICATION PROGRAM PROVISIONS Scope of the Certification Program There currently is no AHRI

31、 certification program for Mechanical Performance Rating of Central Station Air-handling Unit Casing for this Standard. FOREWORD This standard does not include acoustic testing or rating information for Central Station Air-handling Units (CSAHU). The unit must be tested in accordance with ANSI/AHRI

32、Standard 261 (SI) in order to determine actual unit sound power levels, inlet, discharge and casing radiated. CSAHU sound levels are dependent on many factors, for example, fan type, size, and operating conditions, casing construction and casing penetrations, etc. There is often a significant intera

33、ction between the fan and the unit casing which both generates and transmits sound. The prediction of unit sound power from fan-only sound power by applying effects such as casing noise reduction can easily result in errors as large as 15 decibels. IMPORTANT SAFETY DISCLAIMER AHRI does not set safet

34、y standards and does not certify or guarantee the safety of any products, components or systems designed, tested, rated, installed or operated in accordance with this standard/guideline. It is strongly recommended that products be designed, constructed, assembled, installed and operated in accordanc

35、e with nationally recognized safety standards and code requirements appropriate for products covered by this standard/guideline. AHRI uses its best efforts to develop standards/guidelines employing state-of-the-art and accepted industry practices. AHRI does not certify or guarantee that any tests co

36、nducted under its standards/guidelines will be non-hazardous or free from risk. TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION PAGE Section 1. Purpose 1 Section 2. Scope 1 Section 3. Definitions . 1 Section 4.
