Description

This standard prescribes methods of laboratory testing to measure the heat rejection capabilities of remote mechanical draft, air-cooled refrigerant condensers for refrigerating and air conditioning.

Scope

1. This standard provides:

• a. uniform methods of testing for obtaining performance data,
• b. definition of terms,
• c. specification of data to be recorded and calculation formulas, and
• d. test limits and tolerances.

2. This standard does not cover:

• a. methods of test for production or field use,
• b. liquid-cooled condensers, nor
• c. heat reclaim condensers using less than full refrigerant liquid condensing.
