Encased assembly, designed primarily to provide free delivery of conditioned air to an enclosed space, room or zone. It takes its source of air for cooling the condenser from the conditioned space, and discharges this air through a duct to the outdoor space.
NOTE: Such air conditioners comprise a primary source of refrigeration for cooling and dehumidification. They can also include means for heating other than a heat pump, as well as means for circulating, cleaning, humidifying, ventilating or exhausting air.
Encased assembly designed primarily to provide free delivery of conditioned air to an enclosed space, room or zone and includes a prime source of refrigeration for heating. It takes its source of air for the evaporator from the conditioned space, and discharges this air through a duct to the outdoor space.
All equipment within the scope of this Standard shall have the cooling capacities and energy efficiency ratios determined in ccordance with the provisions of this Standard and rated at the cooling test conditions specified in Table 5.1. All tests shall be carried out in accordance with the requirements of Appendix A and the test methods specified in Clause 7. All tests shall be conducted with the equipment functioning at full-load operation,as defined in Clause 3.10. The electrical input values used for rating purposes shall be
measured during the cooling capacity test.
Units that evaporate condensate collected from the evaporator shall be allowed to do so during the capacity test (see Clause 5.1.2). Units that have a supplementary water tank intended to contain supplementary water that is fed to the evaporatively cooled condenser shall have capacity tests performed with and without this feature operating, subject to the requirements of Clause 5.1.3 and Appendix B. If a unit automatically turns off once the supplementary water tank becomes empty, a capacity test with this feature operating is the only capacity test required. See Table B1 in Appendix B for a summary of these requirements.
If the manufacturer of equipment having a variable-speed compressor does not provide information on the full-load frequency and how to achieve it during the cooling capacity test, the equipment shall be operated with its thermostat or controller set to its minimum
allowable temperature setting.AS NZS 3823.1.5 pdf free download.
