Overview

This European Standard applies to forced convection air cooled refrigerant condensers/gas coolers (except duct installation) with dry air side surface within which the refrigerant changes its physical state. The purpose is to establish uniform methods of performance assessment. It does not deal with evaluation of conformity. This European Standard does not apply to air cooled condensers/gas coolers, designed primarily for installation within the machinery compartment of prefabricated cooling units or in factory-assembled condensing/gas cooling units. This European Standard does not apply to condensers with an integral subcooling part. This European Standard specifies methods to test and ascertain the following: - product identification; - standard capacity; - nominal air flow rate; - nominal fan power. This European Standard does not cover technical safety aspects. This European Standard does not cover technical safety aspects. This document (FprEN 328:2014) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 110 "Heat exchangers" with German collaboration, the secretariat of which is held by DIN (Germany). The responsible German body involved is Working Committee NA 044-00-11 AA "Kälte-Apparate" ("Refrigeration machinery") at DIN Standards Committee Refrigeration Technology (FNKä).
