The purpose of this standard is to establish for Computer and Data Processing Room Air Conditioners: definitions; classification; test requirements; rating requirements, minimum data requirements for Published Ratings; marking and nameplate

10、data; and conformance conditions. 1.1.1 Intent. This standard is intended for the guidance of the industry, including manufacturers, engineers, installers, contractors and users. 1.1.2 Review and Amendment. This standard is subject to review and amendment as technology advances. Section 2. Scope 2.1

11、 Scope. This standard applies to floor mounted Computer and Data Processing Room Air Conditioners (CDPR) which have three types: up-flow air discharge, down-flow air discharge and horizontal free air discharge, as illustrated in Figure 1. 2.2 Exclusions. This standard does not apply to the rating of

12、 individual assemblies, such as condensing units or direct expansion fan-coil units, for separate use. Figure 1. Different CDPR Unit Configurations. Section 3. Definitions All terms in this document will follow the standard industry definitions in the ASHRAE Wikipedia website (http:/wiki.ashrae.org/

13、index.php/ASHRAEwiki) unless otherwise defined in this section. 3.1 Computer and Data Processing Room Air Conditioner (CDPR). A Computer and Data Processing Room Air Conditioner consists of one or more factory-made assemblies, which include a direct expansion evaporator or chilled water cooling coil

14、, an air-moving device and air-filtering devices. The air conditioner may include a compressor, condenser, humidifier or reheating function. Where direct expansion equipment is provided in more than one assembly and the separate assemblies are to be used together, the requirements of rating outlined

15、 in this standard are based upon the use of matched assemblies. The functions of a CDPR air conditioner, either alone or in combination with a cooling and heating plant, are to provide air filtration, circulation, cooling, and optional reheating and humidity control. AHRI STANDARD 1360 (I-P)-2013 2

The fluid could be chilled water, water/glycol solution, or refrigerant. An external fluid cooler such as a dry cooler, cooling tower, or condenser is ut

20、ilized for heat rejection. This process is sometimes referred to as free cooling, econ-o-coil, or economizer. 3.6 Humidification Capacity. Humidification Capacity shall be stated as both total and net Humidification Capacity. The total Humidification Capacity reflects the units total humidification

As used herein, the term Published Rating includes the rating of all performance characteristics shown on the unit or published in specifications, advertising o

27、r other literature controlled by the manufacturer, at stated Rating Conditions. 3.11.1 Standard Rating. A rating based on tests performed at Standard Rating Conditions. 3.11.2 Application Rating. A rating based on tests performed at application Rating Conditions (other than Standard Rating Condition

28、s). 3.12 Rating Conditions. Any set of operating conditions under which a single level of performance results and which cause only that level of performance to occur. 3.12.1 Standard Rating Conditions. Rating Conditions used as the basis of comparison for performance character-istics. 3.13 “Shall,”

Any of the below types may utilize a second, or dual, cooling coil that provides cooling by means of a f

32、ree cooling liquid economizer of a separate building chilled-water system or refrigerant economizer that utilizes shared heat exchangers with the compressor based system and where refrigerant is moved my refrigerant pump or natural refrigerant convection. Any of the below types may contain internal

39、 Requirements Section 6 describes all of the testing and rating requirements for this standard. 6.1 Cooling System Standard Capacity Ratings. Rated cooling is defined as 100% of the units maximum capacity and is sometimes referred to as a Standard Rating. Standard capacity ratings shall be establish

40、ed at the Standard Rating Conditions specified in rated cooling Test A of Table 1 for each application class that applies for this equipment. Standard Cooling Capacity shall be stated as Net Total and Net Sensible Cooling Capacity ratings and shall be net values, reflecting the energy dissipated int

41、o the conditioned space by the fan system. 6.1.1 Values of Standard Capacity Ratings. These ratings shall be expressed in terms of kW with three significant digits (e.g., 10.0 kW and 100 kW). 6.1.2 Standard Rating Conditions. The conditions of test for standard ratings shall include the following. 6

42、.1.2.1 Standard Cooling System Rating Temperatures. All indoor and outdoor conditions for testing are defined in Table 1. Also defined in Table 1 are the various air and fluid temperatures that shall be used for heat rejection purposes. A unit shall be rated at all of the application classes that ap

43、ply. 6.1.2.2 Voltage and Frequency. Nameplate voltages for 60 Hz shall be one or more of the following utilization voltages: 115, 200, 208, 230, 265, 460, and/or 575. Standard rating tests shall be performed at the unit nameplate rated voltages and frequency. For air conditioners with dual voltage r

44、atings, standard rating tests shall be performed at both voltages or at the lower of the two voltages if only a single standard rating is to be published. If desired, 50 Hz ratings at 230 and/or 400 volts may be published using this standard but are not required. 6.1.2.3 Unit Airflow Rate. Standard

45、cooling system ratings shall be determined at a total airflow rate (cooling coil airflow rate plus bypass airflow rate as configured or designed) delivered against at least the minimum external static pressures required by Section 6.1.2.6, as outlined below. The airflow rate for Class 1 and 2 applic

46、ations shall not exceed 170 scfm/kW and Class 3 and 4 applications shall not exceed 130 scfm/kW. Air conditioners shall be rated at those airflow rates specified by the manufacturer while in the rated cooling mode at conditions in Test A of Table 1. Once these conditions are established for this sta

47、ndard rating test, no further adjustment to the airflow rate shall be made. 6.1.2.4 Condenser/Air Cooled Fluid Cooler Airflow Rate. Standard ratings for units that are air cooled or glycol cooled with an air-cooled fluid cooler shall be determined at the condenser/air-cooled fluid cooler airflow rat

48、e that is inherent to the air conditioner when operated with all the resistance elements associated with the inlet or discharge attachments that the manufacturer considers normal installation practice. If fan speed control, or partial fan operation in a multifan condenser, is utilized for condensing

49、 temperature control, it may be utilized in this test as defined by the manufacturer. Airflow rates must be expressed as standard cubic feet per minute (scfm) standard air (density = 0.0749 lb/ft3). AHRI STANDARD 1360 (I-P)-2013 5 Table 1.
