What is BS EN 14825 - Calculate of seasonal performance of air conditioners, heat pumps, with electrically driven compressors about?
BS EN 14825 is about Testing and rating at part load conditions and calculation of seasonal performance of Air conditioners, liquid chilling packages and heat pumps, with electrically driven compressors, for space heating and cooling.
BS EN 14825 covers air conditioners, heat pumps and liquid chilling packages, including comfort and process chillers. BS EN 14825 applies to factory-made units, except single duct, double duct,
control cabinet and close control units. BS EN 14825 also covers direct exchange-to-water(brine) heat pumps (DX-to-water(brine)). BS EN 14825 also covers hybrid heat pumps.
BS EN 14825 covers the following
- The test methods for determination of capacities, EER and COP values during active mode at part load conditions
- The test methods for power input during the thermostat-off mode, standby mode, off-mode, and crankcase heater mode
Who is BS EN 14825 - Calculate of seasonal performance of air conditioners, heat pumps, with electrically driven compressors for?
BS EN 14825 on calculate of seasonal performance of air conditioners, heat pumps, with electrically driven compressors is applicable to:
- Air Condition Manufacturer
- HAVC Technician
- Packaging manufacturer
- Heat Pump Manufacturer
Why should you use BS EN 14825 - Calculate of seasonal performance of air conditioners, heat pumps, with electrically driven compressors?
Efficient functioning of air conditioners, liquid chilling packages and heat pumps, with electrically driven compressors, for space heating and cooling is important as it helps in energy-saving and better Load bearing capacity. Seasonal changes this make affect the functioning efficiency.
BS EN 14825 provides part load conditions and calculation methods for calculating the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEERon) and Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCOPon and SCOPnet) of such units when they are used to fulfil the cooling and heating demands.
BS EN 14825 considers the Seasonal Energy Performance Ratio of process chillers (SEPR) which is representative of variations in loads throughout a complete year. Test conditions and test methods are described to calculate this SEPR.
BS EN 14825 helps you in improving the performance and efficiency of the air conditioner, liquid chilling packages with seasonal change with the given test.
