This standard is intended for

10、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 Scope. This standard applies to hermetic Liquid-line Filters designed for use

11、 in the liquid line of all types of refrigeration and air-conditioning systems employing refrigerants. This standard provides a means of determining the Overall Filter Efficiency and Contaminant Capacity of a Liquid-line Filter at specified conditions. 2.2 Exclusions. This standard does not apply to

12、 filters used in the suction line or low pressure side of refrigeration and air-conditioning systems. 2.3 Limitations. This standard only addresses the removal and retention of solid particles. Therefore, acid, dissolved contaminant, and moisture removal are not considered here. Although many commer

13、cial Liquid-line Filters-Driers have moisture removal and retention media, the subject of moisture removal is separate and distinct from the considerations of this standard. The rating standard for moisture removal performance of liquid-line driers is ARI Standard 710. Section 3. Definitions All ter

14、ms in this document follow the standard industry definitions in the current edition of ASHRAE Terminology of Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration unless otherwise defined in this section. 3.1 Contaminant Capacity (Mc).

A statement of the

19、assigned values of those performance characteristics, under stated Rating Conditions, by which a Liquid-line Filter may be chosen to fit its application. These values apply to all Liquid-line Filters of like nominal size and type produced by the same manufacturer. The term Published Rating includes

20、the rating of all performance characteristics shown on the component or published in specifications, advertising or other literature controlled by the manufacturer, at stated Rating Conditions. 3.7.1 Application Rating.

21、tandard Rating Conditions). 3.7.2 Standard Rating. A rating based on tests performed at Standard Rating Conditions. 3.8 Rating Conditions. Any set of operating conditions under which a single level of performance results and which causes only that level of performance to occur. 3.8.1 Standard Rating

22、 Conditions. Rating Conditions used as the basis of comparison for performance characteristics. 3.9 “Shall“ or “Should“. “Shall“ or “should“ shall be interpreted as follows: 3.9.1 Shall. Where “shall“ or “shall not“ is used for a provision specified, that provision is mandatory if compliance with th

23、e standard is claimed. 3.9.2 Should. “Should“ is used to indicate provisions which are not mandatory but which are desirable as good practice. 3.10 Temperature. The temperature of the liquid refrigerant passing through the Liquid-line Filter. 3.11 Test Flow Rate. The mass flow rate of clean test flu

Rating Requirements 6.1 Ratin

27、g Requirements. Liquid-line Filters shall be rated by their Overall Filter Efficiency and Contaminant Capacity, and shall include their ratings at the Standard Rating Conditions in Table 1. All tests shall be conducted with the test fluid at a single temperature within the range of 75F to 80F 24C to

28、 27C. 6.2 Overall Filter Efficiency and Contaminant Capacity shall be determined in accordance with the procedures outlined in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 63.2 and statistical method outlined in 6.3. 6.3 Statistical Method for Establishing Overall Filter Efficiency and Contaminant Capacity Ratings. ANSI/AS

29、HRAE Standard 63.2 gives a procedure for determining Overall Filter Efficiency and Contaminant Capacity of any refrigerant Liquid-line Filter or Filter-Drier. This subsection presents a statistical procedure applied to the results from testing sets of samples of production Liquid-line Filters to est

30、ablish a rating which will be equaled or exceeded by 90% of those produced. 6.3.1 When several determinations of Overall Filter Efficiency and Contaminant Capacity of a single model Liquid-line Filter are made by the procedure of ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 63.2, a series of values will be obtained because

31、 of manufacturing variations. The average of these results is more reliable than any single result. This average also becomes more reliable as more values are used in calculating the average. 6.3.2 In order to compensate for these testing and manufacturing variations, a statistical procedure is avai

32、lable for arriving at a rating that will guarantee any percent compliance desired. 6.3.3 This rating procedure is a statistical analysis of results obtained from tests on a group of six Liquid-line Filters, and the rating obtained by this procedure will be such that the average Overall Filter Effici

33、ency and Contaminant Capacity of duplicate tests on any set of six Liquid-line Driers will equal or exceed the rating in 90% of all cases. 6.3.3.1 For each of the Liquid-line Filters tested, calculate the average, minimum and maximum Pressure Drop for each addition of contaminant. The results are th

34、en plotted on a linear graph with the contaminant added on the X-axis and the Pressure Drop on the Y-axis. Three curves are constructed, one for the minimum values, the average values and the maximum values. A horizontal line is drawn from the end point pressure through the average curve. A vertical

35、 line is then drawn from the point of intersection to the horizontal axis.
