14、RI Standard 620. 2.2.2 Portable Humidifiers as defined in AHAM HU-1. Section 3. Definitions All terms in this document shall follow the standard industry definitions in the current edition of ASHRAE Terminology of Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration unless otherwise defined in t

15、his section. 3.1 Commercial and Industrial Humidifier (Humidifier). A device designed to add moisture to air. 3.1.1 Atomizing Humidifiers. A type of Humidifier intended for duct applications in which water is reduced to minute particles and dispersed to air as a fine mist. 3.1.1.1 Centrifugal Type A

16、tomizer. Utilizes a high-speed disk to sling water to its rim where it is thrown onto plates or a comb to produce a fine mist. 3.1.1.2 Nozzle Type Atomizers. Utilizes a nozzle, compressed-air, water, or air and water, to reduce water to a fine mist. a. Compressed Air. Compressed air is forced throug

17、h an annular orifice at the nozzle tip creating a vortex at the tip. Water is forced through the center orifice of the nozzle where it is atomized on contact with the compressed air at the nozzle tip. b. Compressed Air and Water. Compressed air and water are combined inside the nozzle and discharged

18、 onto a resonator to produce a fine mist at the nozzle tip. c. Compressed Water. High pressure pump is used to force water through the orifice of a nozzle to produce a fine mist at the nozzle tip.

19、esaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-ARI STANDARD 640-2005 _ 2 3.1.1.3 Ultrasonic Atomizer. A piezoelectric transducer immersed in a reservoir of mineral free water. The transducer converts a high-frequency electronic signal into a high-frequency mechanical oscil

20、lation. The mechanical oscillation is directed at the surface of the water, where at very high frequencies it creates a fine mist. 3.1.2 Direct Injection Steam Humidifiers. A type of Humidifier intended for duct applications in which steam, water vapor under pressure and at high temperature, is disp

21、ersed directly into the air. a. Steam Cup Type. Utilizes a cup and drain mounted beneath the duct. Steam is injected into the sides of a cup allowing most of the moisture of the steam to enter into the air while permitting the condensate to fall into the cup by gravity and into the steam trap. b. St

22、eam Separator Type. Utilizes an enclosed distribution pipe, a separating chamber, an integral control valve, and a drain to distribute steam into the air. Steam is injected directly into the enclosed distribution pipe providing reheat to the outgoing steam passing through the distributor pipe before

23、 being released into the air. The steam then enters the separating chamber which allows dry steam to pass through the control valve and into the distributor pipe while allowing condensate to fall by gravity into the drain. The moisture of the steam is reheated while in the distributor pipe before be

24、ing dispersed into the air. c. Steam Panel Type. Utilizes an integral control valve, a header with multiple distributor pipes, and a drain. The control valve regulates the amount of steam that is injected into the header, which allows dry steam to pass into the distributor pipe(s) while allowing con

25、densate to escape through the drain. The moisture of the steam in the distributor pipe(s) is dispersed into the air. 3.1.3 Heated Tank Humidifiers. A type of Humidifier which converts tank water to steam using electricity, gas, or steam. The steam is dispersed into a duct system through dispersion m

26、anifolds. If the Humidifier is a free standing unit, the steam is dispersed directly into the air space through a fan unit. a. Electrode Type. Utilizes an electric current passing through the water to create heat energy to produce steam. b. Gas Heated Type. Utilizes natural gas or propane as the hea

27、ting method to convert water to atmospheric steam. c. Infrared Type. Utilizes one or more radiant heat bulbs to create heat energy to produce steam. d. Resistance Type. Utilizes one or more electrical elements to heat the water directly to produce steam. e. Steam-to-Steam Type. Utilizes steam from a

28、 central boiler passing through a heat exchanger submersed in water to create heat energy to produce steam. f. Hot Water Type. Utilizes hot water from a central boiler passing through a heat exchanger submersed in water to create heat energy to produce steam. 3.2 Humidification Capacity. The capacit

29、y associated with a Humidifiers ability to add moisture to air expressed in lb/h kg/h of continuous operation. 3.3 Published Rating. A statement of the assigned values of those performance characteristics, under stated Rating Conditions, by which a unit may be chosen to fit its application. These va

30、lues apply to all units of like nominal size and type (identification) produced by the same manufacturer. The term Published Rating includes the rating of all performance characteristics shown on the unit or published in specifications, advertising or other literature controlled by the manufacturer,

31、 at stated Rating Conditions. 3.3.1 Application Rating. A rating based on tests performed at application Rating Conditions (other than Standard Rating Conditions). 3.3.2 Standard Rating. A rating based on tests performed at Standard Rating Conditions. 3.4 Rating Conditions. Any set of operating cond

32、itions under which a single level of performance results and which causes only that level of performance to occur. 3.4.1 Standard Rating Conditions. Rating Conditions used as the basis of comparison for performance characteristics. 3.5 “Shall“ or “Should“. “Shall“ or “should“ shall be interpreted as

33、 follows: 3.5.1 Shall. Where “shall“ or “shall not“ is used for a provision specified, the provision is mandatory if compliance with the standard is claimed. 3.5.2. Should. “Should“ is used to indicate provisions which are not mandatory but which are desirable as good practice. Copyright Air-Conditi
