2、IMER AHRI does not set safety 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, install

3、ed and operated in accordance 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

4、 guarantee that any tests conducted under its standards/guidelines will be non-hazardous or free from risk. Note: This standard supersedes ANSI/AHRI Standard 920-2012. For SI ratings, see AHRI Standard 921 (SI)-2015. AHRI CERTIFICATION PROGRAM PROVISIONS Scope of the Certification Program The certif

5、ication program applies to 60 Hz production models of Direct Exchange - Dedicated Outdoor Air System Units rated below a Moisture Removal Capacity (MRC) of 97 lb of moisture/h at Standard Rating Condition A per Tables 2 and 3 of AHRI Standard 920 (I-P). For external resistance, refer to Table 4 of A

6、HRI Standard 920 (I-P). Certified Ratings The following certification program ratings are verified by test: 1. Moisture Removal Capacity, lb of moisture/h 2. Moisture Removal Efficiency, lb of moisture/kWh Foreword: DX-Dedicated Outdoor Air Systems (DX-DOAS) condition outdoor ventilation air indepen

7、dently from the building HVAC system. This approach to handling ventilation air results in superior humidity control by limiting the primary source of humidity in most buildings ambient humidity carried in by the ventilation air directly at its source. When the DX-DOAS removes enough moisture from t

8、he ventilation air to match the building interior load, energy savings can be obtained by running the separate, sensible cooling only, interior cooling system at a higher evaporating temperature, thus improving the energy efficiency. Further energy savings may be realized by providing only the amoun

9、t of ventilation air necessary and/or by using energy recovery from the building Exhaust Air to pre-treat the ventilation air. Alternate energy strategies may be employed to provide ventilation air at low or high dry-bulb temperatures to assist in building cooling and heating. TABLE OF CONTENTS SECT
