Alcance y aplicabilidad

This standard specifies the safety requirements and their determination for water chillers (heat pumps). It applies to motor-driven units utilizing the vapor compression refrigeration cycle. Other liquid cooling units may also refer to this standard, but it is primarily designed for commercial and industrial chiller applications. Manufacturers of vapor compression cycle chillers must comply with these mandatory safety provisions.

Requisitos técnicos

The standard outlines comprehensive safety requirements addressing various hazards, including mechanical, electrical, and pressure-related risks. It mandates that units must be designed to prevent instability, sharp edge injuries, and component ejection. Units with a cooling capacity of 150kW or greater must be equipped with an emergency stop device. Regarding electrical safety, the standard specifies requirements for protection against electric shock, insulation resistance, dielectric strength, and winding temperature rise limits. It also details internal wiring rules, power connections, and grounding device specifications to ensure safe operation. IEC 60364-6-61:1986 is referenced for grounding circuit continuity. The standard also covers pressure vessels, requiring their design and manufacturing to comply with relevant standards like JB/T 4750. It sets rules for refrigerant and lubricant charging, prohibiting the arbitrary replacement of refrigerant types without updating the nameplate. Refrigerant leakage must be prevented to avoid asphyxiation or explosion hazards. Finally, it addresses material selection, requiring thermal insulation materials to be flame-retardant, non-toxic, and odorless. Noise and vibration levels must be minimized, and units must not exceed specified noise limits.

Métodos de ensayo

- Stability and Mechanical Strength: Verified through design calculations and manual inspection of protective guards. - Electrical Safety Tests: Includes insulation resistance testing, dielectric strength testing, and protection against electric shock using test probes per GB 4208-2008. - Moisture Resistance: Outdoor units undergo water spray tests followed by insulation and dielectric strength tests. - Grounding Continuity: Tested using a 12V, 10A current for at least 10 seconds to measure voltage drop. - Pressure Vessel and Refrigerant Checks: Verification of quality documents, nameplates, and leak tightness tests.
