Standard Scope
This standard establishes a single set of testing and rating requirements for determining capacities, water pressure drops, integrated part load values (IPLV's) and application part load values (APLV's) for absorption water-chilling and water-heating packages; whereby, equipment performance ratings can be compared from product to product. This standard applies to single-effect steam and hot fluid operated water chilling units, double-effect steam and hot fluid operated water chilling units, and double-effect direct-fired (natural gas, oil, LP gas) water chilling/heating units. Also included are multiple-effect and multi-loop cycle absorption water chilling/heating units.
