ETC's Test and Simulation Systems Group Awarded Calorimeter Contract by a Compressor Manufacturer
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
For Immediate Release
SOUTHAMPTON, PA, USA, June 5, 2015 - The Test and Simulation Systems ("TSS")
Group (www.testingandsimulation.com) of Environmental Tectonics Corporation (OTC
Pink: ETCC) ("ETC" or the "Company") (www.etcusa.com) announced today that it
signed a contract with a leading residential reciprocating compressor
manufacturer. This calorimeter will utilize high pressure/volatile refrigerants
including R-32 (difluoromethane) and R-290 (propane). These refrigerants are
currently being used in various countries around the world and will be entering
the U.S. market within a few years.
The calorimeter will consist of a compressor chamber, chamber conditioning
system, secondary refrigerant vessel, secondary refrigerant vessel chamber,
support equipment, PLC controls, PC and data acquisition system.
A compressor calorimeter is used to measure thermal performance and energy
efficiency of a refrigeration compressor. The calorimeter simulates various
environmental and thermal loading conditions normally experienced during
operation of a refrigeration compressor. Testing under simulated conditions
allows the user to acquire compressor critical thermal performance data, in this
case for compressors up to 75,000 BTU/hr in capacity.
We offer a facility that meets the standards of ASHRAE and ISO. The following
standards are most applicable:
* ASHRAE 23.1-2010 Methods of Testing for Rating the Performance of Positive
Displacement Refrigerant Compressors and Condensing Units That Operate at
Subcritical Temperatures
* ASHRAE 41.1-2013 Standard Method of Temperature Measurement
* ASHRAE 41.9-2011 Standard Calorimeter Test Method for Flow Measurement of
Volatile Refrigerant
* ISO 917 : 1989 Testing Of Refrigerant Compressors
"The award of this contract allows ETC to be among the first companies to
provide test equipment for residential air conditioning system compressors using
these refrigerants," said Greg Raab, Business Unit Manager of ETC's TSS Group.
"The industry expectation is that these environmentally friendly and highly
efficient systems will be commonplace in the U.S. within the next 5-10 years".
