The purpose of this standard is to establish, for Compressors: definitions, test requirements, rating requirements, minimum data re

26、quirements for Published Ratings, operating requirements, marking and nameplate 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. The standard defines the minimum amount o

27、f information, in a standard form to enable the evaluation and comparison of different Compressors for use in a particular application. 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 positive d

28、isplacement refrigerant Compressors operating in subcritical applications at a fixed displacement. This standard also applies to the presentation of performance data for Compressors for air-cooled, evaporative-cooled or water-cooled air-conditioning, heat pump and refrigeration applications. The man

29、ufacturer is solely responsible for the determination of values to be used in published product information. This standard stipulates the minimum amount of information to be provided and suggests a method to be used to verify the accuracy of that information. 2.2 Exclusions. 2.2.1 This standard does

30、 not apply to Compressors employing ammonia, as covered in ANSI/AHRI Standard 510 or carbon dioxide in subcritical and transcritical applications, as covered in ANSI/AHRI Standard 570 (I-P) and ANSI/AHRI Standard 571 (SI). 2.2.2 This standard does not apply to modulated refrigerant mass flow Compres

31、sors or Compressors utilizing vapor injection for the purpose of subcooling to gain capacity. 2.2.3 This standard does not apply to Compressors intended for use in: 2.2.3.1 Household refrigerators and freezers 2.2.3.2 Automotive air-conditioners 2.2.3.3 Dehumidifiers 2.2.3.4 Industrial products othe

37、erant Compressor. A Compressor with a shaft or other moving part extending through its casing to be driven by an outside source of power thus requiring a shaft seal or equivalent rubbing contact between fixed and moving parts. 3.2.3 Semi-hermetic Refrigerant Compressor. A Compressor and motor assemb

38、ly contained within a gas-tight housing that is sealed by gasketed joints to provide access for servicing internal parts. 3.3 Performance Factor. Performance factor shall be computed as a ratio of capacity to power input at specified operating conditions. The potential forms of the performance facto

39、r include, but are not limited to, the energy efficiency ratio (EER) in Btu/hW, coefficient of performance (COP) in W/W, and ratio of power input to capacity in bhp/ton. 3.4 Power Input. The time rate of energy usage of the Compressor (compressor power) plus any accessories required to sustain opera

40、tion of the compressor at the Reference Rating Condition. If accessories are not included it shall be explicitly stated. 3.5 Published Operating Envelope. The applicable operating envelope for which Equation 1 is valid shall be stated. Equation 1 shall not be used to extrapolate beyond the Published

41、 Operating Envelope. 3.6 Published Rating. A statement of the assigned values of those performance characteristics, under stated operating conditions, by which a unit may be chosen to fit its application. These values apply to all units of like nominal size and type (identification) produced by the

42、same manufacturer. For a Batch of Equipment, the Published Rating shall represent the expected average value for the batch. 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

43、 the manufacturer, at Reference Rating Condition. 3.7 Rating Uncertainty. The limit within which the measured performance of an individual Compressor or a specified large portion of a batch of Compressors can be expected to fall relative to the Published Rating. 3.8 Reference Rating Conditions. A sp

44、ecific condition selected from Table 1 for quick reference or comparison. 3.9 Refrigerant Mass Flow Rate. The mass flow rate of the volatile refrigerant, which is potentially mixed with lubricant. 3.10 Refrigerating Capacity. The capacity associated with the increase in total enthalpy between the re
