13、2 Remote Condenser Systems. A type of ACIM in which the ice-making mechanism with compressor and condenser are in separate sections. 3.2 Bin Theoretical Storage Capacity. For Self-Contained Model Ice-Makers only, the theoretical storage capacity and the storage effectiveness of the ice storage bin s
14、hall be determined in accordance with AHRI Standard 821 (SI). For these models, the internal volume is the volume calculated up to the intended shut-off level. The intended shut-off level is defined as the height of the thermostat bulb; the bottom of the curtain or the height of the electric eye, de
15、pending upon the mechanism used to shut off the Ice-Maker. 3.3 Condenser Water Use Rate.

For Continuous Type Ice-Makers only, the ice hardness is defined in ASHRAE Standard 29 based on Net Cooling Effect, %. = /144 100 3.8 Ice Harvest Rate. The gross weight of ice harvested according to ASHRAE Standard 29, expressed in
19、kg/24 h and in multiples of 1 kg/24 h. 3.9 Net Cooling Effect.

The amount of potable water used in making ice according to ASHRAE S
20、tandard 29, which is equal to the sum of the ice harvested, Dump or Purge Water, and the Harvest Water in L/45.0 kg of ice, expressed in multiples of 0.1 L/45.0 kg of ice. Alternatively, the amount of water entering the ACIM per cycle can be measured. 3.11 Published Rating. A statement of the assign
