Install a new filter bag in the test cleaner, if required,before conducting performance tests.7.1.2 With a minimum length of 2 in. inside diameter tubingsealed to the plenum chamber and
18、to the cleaner, and withoutan orifice plate in the holder, energize the cleaner at its ratedvoltage 61 % and rated frequency 61 Hz for 5 min to stabilizemotor temperatures. For vacuum cleaners with dual nameplatevoltage rating, conduct testing at the highest voltage.7.1.3 With the cleaner operating
19、at a constant rated voltage,insert the 0.75-in. (19.05-mm) diameter sharp-edge orifice intothe holder on the orifice box.7.1.4 Record the suction and input power in that order assoon as the manometer reading stabilizes.7.1.4.1 Take the manometer reading as soon as the manom-eter reaches a true peak.
20、 (On higher manometer readings, theliquid level may peak, drop, and peak a second time. Thesecond peak is the true peak reading. A person conducting thetest for the first time shall observe at least one run beforerecording data. See Specification F431 for instructions on howto minimize the overshoot

33、MINING 40 % OF PERFORMANCEA1.1 One requirement for life test is to ensure that airflow/suction performance at the central vacuum cleaner inlet has notdegraded below 40 % of original. This ensures suction loadingon the motor. This degradation can be based on a reduction ofinitial suction since there
34、is a direct relationship betweensuction and airflow. Determine the point at which steps must betaken to correct the airflow loss based on suction as follows:h25 0.36 h1where:h2= suction at monitoring point, in. (mm), andh1= initial suction, in. (mm).Therefore, instead of setting up the test unit on
35、the orificebox to determine airflow for calculating degradation of perfor-mance every 168 h during the test, all that is required is tomeasure the suction, correct it, and as long as h2 0.36 h1, thetest requirement for airflow/suction load is maintained.3A1.2 Derivation:Q15 21.844D2K=h1Since D2and K
36、 are constants, then Q1/Q25=h1/=h2andQ250.6 Q1at the point when servicing may be required.Therefore, Q1/0.6Q15=h1/=h2,or=h250.6 =h1or h2= 0.36h1at the servicing point.A1.3 Terms:Q1= initial airflow,Q2= airflow at servicing point,h1= initial suction,h2= suction at failure point, andD = orifice diamet
