What is BS EN 14511-2-HVAC with Electrically driven compressors about?
BS EN 14511 discusses air conditioners, liquid chilling packages, and heat pumps for space heating and cooling and process chillers, HVAC with electrically driven compressors. BS EN 14511‑2 is the second part of BS EN 14511 multi-series and discusses test conditions
BS EN 14511‑2 applies to:
- Factory-made units that can be ducted,
- Factory-made liquid chilling packages with integral condensers or for use with remote condensers
- Factory-made units of either fixed capacity or variable capacity by any means, and
- Air-to-air air conditioners which can also evaporate the condensate on the condenser side
BS EN 14511‑2 applies only to those designed and supplied as a complete package, except for liquid chilling packages with remote condenser. BS EN 14511‑2 is primarily intended for water and brine chilling packages but can be used for other liquids subject to agreement.
BS EN 14511‑2 specifies the conditions for which performance data is to be declared for single duct and double duct units for compliance to the Ecodesign Regulation 206/2012 and Energy Labelling Regulation 626/2011.
Who is BS EN 14511‑2- HVAC with Electrically driven compressors for?
BS EN 14511‑2 on air conditioners, liquid chilling packages, and heat pumps for space heating and cooling and process chillers, HVAC with electrically driven compressors, is useful for:
- Air conditioners manufacturers
- Refrigerators manufacturers
- Heater manufacturers
- Compressor manufacturers
- Quality control personnel
Why should you use BS EN 14511‑2- HVAC with Electrically driven compressors?
For the system to operate as effectively as possible, oxygen is transported to the fuel-cell stack in the cathode path via the electric air compressor. The desired quantity of air is extracted from the ambient atmosphere and made available to the stack at the necessary pressure level for generating electricity.
BS EN 14511‑2 provides you with the test conditions for the rating of air conditioners, liquid chilling packages, and heat pumps, using either, air, water, or brine as heat transfer media, with electrically driven compressors when used for space heating and/or cooling. BS EN 14511‑2 also specifies the test conditions for the rating of air-cooled and water(brine)-cooled process chillers.
What’s changed since the last update?
BS EN 14511-2:2018 supersedes BS EN 14511-2:2013, which is withdrawn. BS EN 14511-2:2018 includes a technical change with respect to BS EN 14511-2:2013. That is:
- The inclusion of process chillers in the scope of the standard with a table of relevant test conditions.
