What is BS EN 14511-3- 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 14511‑3 is the third part of BS EN 14511 multi-series and discusses test methods.
BS EN 14511‑3 specifies the test methods for the rating and performance 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 cooling. These test methods also apply to the rating and performance of process chillers.
BS EN 14511‑3 also specifies the method of testing and reporting for heat recovery capacities, the system reduced capacities, and the capacity of individual indoor units of multi split systems, where applicable. BS EN 14511‑3 also makes it possible to rate multi split and modular heat recovery multi split systems by rating separately the indoor and outdoor units
Who is BS EN 14511-3- HVAC with Electrically driven compressors for?
BS EN 14511-3 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 14511-3- 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 14511-3 provides your test method to assess the rating and performance 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 cooling.
The test methods in BS EN 14511-3 include tests for determination of capacities, electrical consumptions for single duct and double ducts units, airflow rate measurement of ducted units, and heat recovery test for an air-cooled multi-split system. BS EN 14511-3 also helps you with the test report. BS EN 14511-3 helps you to manufacture high-quality air conditioners, liquid chilling packages, and heat pumps using either air, water, or brine as heat transfer media, with electrically driven compressors.
What’s changed since the last update?
- BS EN 14511-3:2018 supersedes BS EN 145113:2013, which is withdrawn. BS EN 14511-3:2018 includes some technical changes with respect to BS EN 145113:2013. These include:
- the revision of Annexes A and B on the test methods
- Deletion of Annex C
- The revision of Annex G (Annex H on the previous version) on liquid pumps corrections
- The inclusion of process chillers into the scope of the EN 14511 series and of this Part 3
