Question 1: Vacuum pump
Answer:
pump used to remove air and moisture from a refrigeration system at a pressure below atmospheric pressure
Question 2: boiler
Answer:
tank where heat produced from the combustion of fuels such as natural gas, fuel oil, or coal is used to generate hot water or steam.
Question 3: water cooled system
Answer:
air conditioning system that uses freon as a refrigerant and water as a condensing medium
Question 4: Het
Answer:
High Efficiency take off
Question 5: Outdoor coil/condensing unit
Answer:
portion of a heat pump or air conditioning system that is outside the home functions as a heat transfer collecting heat from a dispelling heat to outside air
Question 6: Freon
Answer:
Hydrogenated simple hydrocarbon containing fluorine, chlorine or bromine used as refrigerants
Question 7: Condenser
Answer:
Transfers unwanted heat out of a refrigeration system to a medium. There are three types of condensers air cooled water cooled and evaporative
Question 8: Centrifugal Compressor
Answer:
Compressor used in vapor compression refrigeration cycles where a rotating impeller is the device which compresses the refrigerant vapor.
Question 9: Cop(coefficient of performance)
Answer:
Measure of the energy efficiency of a chiller
Question 10: RMVD
Answer:
Round Motorized volume damper
Question 11: LCD
Answer:
Liquid crystal display
Question 12: Roof curb
Answer:
Raised frame used to mount mechanical units (such as air conditioning or exhaust fans), skylights, etc.on a roof
Question 13: Indoor unit
Answer:
located in the house containing coil, fan, motor and filtering device
Question 14: Roof Cap
Answer:
Located on the outside of the bin, directly in the center of the roof (i.e. right at the top of the bin). The roof cap can be opened to allow for increased airflow, especially when unloading the bin.
Question 15: Dehumidification
Answer:
reduction of water vapor in air by cooling the air below the dew point.
Question 16: Integrally controlled motor (ICM)
Answer:
Variable speed motor that operates at low rpm for efficiency and quiet operation, 90% efficient versus 60% efficiency for conventional motors
Question 17: Indoor Coil
Answer:
Refrigerant portion of fan coil unit typically made of several rows of copper tubing with aluminum fins
Question 18: upflow
Answer:
air conditioning system that discharges air into the conditioned space on top mounted discharge plenum or overhead duct
Question 19: Purge device
Answer:
device that removes air and water vapor from the refrigerant inside a chiller. Purge is necessity in negative pressure designs,
Question 20: upflow furnace
Answer:
furnace that pulls return air in from the bottom and expels warm air from the top
Question 21: OBD
Answer:
Opposed blade damper
Question 22: Precision AC
Answer:
systems that primarily desiigned for cooling electronic not people.
Question 23: Condensing unit
Answer:
Mechanism that pumps vaporized refrigerant from evaporator, compresses it,liquefies it in the condenser and returns it to the refrigerant control.
Question 24: Blower
Answer:
Air handling device for moving air in a distribution system
Question 25: Condenser coil
Answer:
tubes filled with refrigerant, normally located outside the home,that removes heat from the hot, gaseous refrigerant so that the refrigerant becomes liquid again.
Question 26: Heat exchanger
Answer:
Device for the transfer of heat energy from the source to the conveying meduim
Question 27: Downflow
Answer:
Air conditioning system that discharges air downward, directly beneath a raised floor, found in computer rooms or modern office spaces
Question 28: Refrigerant
Answer:
Substance that produces a refrigerating effect while expanding or vaporizing
