Certified Ratings Program - Acoustical Duct Silencers

Products that can be licensed by AMCA International to bear the AMCA International Certified Ratings Seal are prefabricated acoustical duct silencers. Prefabricated acoustical duct silencers are defined as silencers that are constructed in advance, or manufactured in standard assemblies or sections ready for field installation. The program applies to acoustical duct silencers within the scope of AMCA International for which performance rating catalogs are published and made available to the public. When performance ratings for both licensed and unlicensed products are contained in the same catalog, there must be a clear distinction made between licensed and unlicensed products, as required in Section 11 of AMCA International Publication 11, Certified Ratings Program Operating Manual.

Fan System Efficiency and Fan System Input Power Calculation

This standard provides a method to estimate the input power and overall efficiency of an extended fan system. An extended fan system is composed of a fan and an electric motor but may also include a transmission and a motor controller. While direct measurement of fan system performance is preferred, the large number of fan system configurations often makes testing impractical. This standard offers a standardized method to estimate fan system performance by modeling commonly used components. Calculations reported in accordance with this standard offers fan users a tool to compare alternative fan system configurations in a consistent and uniform manner. This document does not provide selection guidance. Users must assure that selected components have sufficient capacity and are configured to produce the desired results.

Certified Ratings Program Product Rating Manual for Fan Air Performance

The Purpose and Scope of the AMCA 211-22 edition still apply to this version. The focus of the 2023 revision was to coordinate the AMCA CRP with the US DOE requirements. The changes were only made to Section 9.11, “Rating method N: Large-diameter ceiling fans,” the title of Section 20 and to Section 22, “Product Rating Requirements for Large-Diameter Ceiling Fans.” Major changes include: 1. Adding the DOE definition of a large diameter ceiling fan. 2. Adding to the list of rating requirements: Number of available fan speeds, capability of reverse flow, and if fan speed controls are separate from lighting controls (if applicable). 3. Allowing ratings of standby power consumption to be conservative. 4. Added testing voltage requirements for LDCFs regulated by the US DOE and having polyphase electricity. These changes could impact the certification process. They will become mandatory after board approval for all new certifications. LDCFs destined for the US Market and already certified must meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 430; 10 CFR Part 429; and Section 325(ff)(6) of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (42 U.S.C. 6295(ff)(6)) by February 13, 2023. All other LDCFs that are already certified will have three years to meet the new requirements, if needed.

Application of Sone Loudness Ratings for Non-Ducted Air Moving Devices

The charts and formulae given in this bulletin are for the purpose of estimating the loudness of fans as installed, and take into consideration room size and acoustical qualities as well as the number and loudness ratings of the fans. It will be necessary to know the acoustical characteristics of other noise sources within the room to be able to estimate the total loudness of all sources. For the addition of sounds, it is assumed that the noise spectrums are similar. The room effect chart is for the reverberant field in the room, and applies everywhere except in the space near the fan. Within this space, the direct sound field can be estimated and added to the reverberant field to obtain total loudness.

Certified Ratings Program - Product Rating Manual for Airflow Measurement Stations

The purpose of this document is to prescribe and establish procedures to be used in the development and publication of certified performance ratings for airflow measurement stations. Certified ratings provide assurance to the buyer, user, and specifier that the manufacturer's published performance ratings for airflow measurement stations are repeatable; information on how the product was tested; what appurtenances (accessories or optional equipment) were accounted for in the ratings; and other pertinent information. This standard provides a procedure for verification of the manufacturer's performance ratings on a regular schedule through check-testing of products in the AMCA International Laboratory.

Calculation of the Fan Energy Index

This standard defines the calculation method for the fan energy index (FEI), which is an energy efficiency metric for fans inclusive of motors and drives. This metric provides a standardized and consistent basis to compare fan energy performance across fan types and sizes at a given fan duty point. Fan specifiers can use FEI to understand and communicate the fan efficiency design intent. Legislative or regulatory bodies can use FEI to define the energy efficiency requirements of fans. The scope includes all fan and motor sizes and all applications, including fans with fan air performance based on tests in accordance with one of the following fan test standards: ANSI/AMCA Standard 210, ANSI/AMCA Standard 230, ANSI/AMCA Standard 250, ANSI/AMCA Standard 260, ISO 5801, or ISO 13350.
