20、g devices for limiting the pressure (hereafter called devices) to ensure that the maximum or minimum pressure, which is caused by a pressure generator in refrigerating systems and/or heat pumps, is maintained within the limits of the refrigerating system and/or heat pump. These devices are of specia

NOTE Devices may be wired directly into the control circuit of the compressor or may be connected through a relay or microprocessor/computer. Transducers/analogue devices are not covered by this standard. If more stringent s
22、pecifications for special applications are necessary, these should be agreed between the customer and the manufacturer of the devices. 1.2 Different safety and control functions can be combined in one device. 1.3 This standard does not apply to devices used for control purposes. 2 Normative referenc

NOTE Symbols and equivalent terms are specified in annex A. 3.1 safety switching device for limiting pressure pressure-actuated device that is designed to stop the operation of th
28、e pressure generator NOTE These devices can be designed to limit the high pressure (H) or to limit the low pressure (L) to one predetermined value during abnormal operating conditions. 3.1.1 pressure limiter device which automatically resets NOTE 1 It is called PSH for high-pressure protection and P
29、SL for low-pressure protection (see annex A). NOTE 2 The devices automatically cut out when a set pressure limit is exceeded, and they automatically cut in again. 3.1.2 pressure cut-out device which is manually reset without the aid of a tool NOTE 1 It is called PZH for high-pressure protection and
30、PZL for low-pressure protection (see annex A). NOTE 2 The devices automatically cut out when a set pressure limit is exceeded and are manually reset without the aid of a tool. 3.1.3 safety pressure cut-out device which is manually reset only with the aid of a tool NOTE 1 It is called PZHH for high-p
31、ressure protection and PZLL for low-pressure protection (see annex A). NOTE 2 The devices automatically cut out when a set pressure limit is exceeded and are manually reset only with the aid of a tool. 3.2 cut-out pressure pressure at which the contacts in the control circuit open to stop the pressu
32、re generator NOTE This will occur with a rising pressure for high-pressure protection and a falling pressure for low-pressure protection. 3.3 cut-in pressure pressure at which the contacts in the control circuit close to start the pressure generator NOTE This will occur with a falling pressure for h
33、igh-pressure protection and a rising pressure for low-pressure protection, as well as by manual reset. 3.4 setting range pressure range within which the cut-out pressure can be set 3.5 upper switching pressure pressure at which the device switches during pressure rise (cut-out or cut-in)Page 4 EN 12
34、263:1998 BSI 04-1999 3.6 lower switching pressure pressure at which the device switches during pressure fall (cut-out or cut-in) 3.7 differential pressure difference between the upper and lower switching pressure NOTE For devices with manual reset, the lower or upper switching pressure will be that
35、at which the device is capable of being reset. 3.8 drift permanent alterations which can occur when a device has been tested under the conditions specified in this standard 3.9 deviation temporary alterations which disappear when the device is no longer subjected to the test conditions 3.10 maximum

37、equirements and tests 4.1 General requirements and test conditions Devices shall be so designed and constructed that in normal use they function so as to cause no danger to persons and surroundings, even in the event of any foreseeable misuse which may occur during operation. Unless otherwise specif
38、ied, all tests shall be carried out at an ambient temperature of 208Ct o2 58 C. For accuracy of measurement, the pressure applied to the device shall not change at a rate of more than 10 bar/min. Three samples of each type shall undergo and pass all the described tests. However, only two are used fo
39、r the burst test and the third for the test of fail-safe function of the measuring element. 4.2 Mechanical requirements 4.2.1 Design and endurance The materials used in the construction of the devices shall be able to withstand the thermal, mechanical and chemical stresses occurring in the range of
40、application for which the devices are provided. Corrosive effects, in particular, shall not affect the function of the devices. The design of the device shall ensure a snap-action characteristic of the contact system. Devices with automatic reset shall have a mechanical life of at least 5 000 switch
41、ing operations. Devices with manual reset shall withstand at least 500 reset operations. In addition, the devices shall withstand at least 50 000 pressure cycles without switching. 4.2.2 Devices with manual reset The manual reset shall be designed trip-free according to 2.3.15 of EN 60730-1:1995. Th
42、e reset mechanism shall be independent of other setting mechanisms. 4.3 Electrical requirements 4.3.1 Safety For electrical safety, the following clauses of EN 60730-2-6:1995 are applicable and the manufacturer shall declare compliance thereto: clause 8: Touch protection against electric shock; clau

45、 cut-out pressure shall be shown on the device, either by marking of a fixed setting or by a scale indication on adjustable devices. On adjustable devices, changes of setting shall only be possible by means of a tool. It shall be possible to protect the devices against alteration of settings by unau
46、thorized persons. 4.4.2 Setting range High-pressure devices shall be protected against excessive set-point adjustment above the maximum set-point range. This protection shall not allow a cut-out pressure higher than the maximum range value +15 % or +3 bar, whichever is the greater. 4.4.3 Accuracy of
47、 setting The accurate setting of the upper and lower switching pressures shall be established by means of a suitable pressure gauge, because the setting scales show only approximate values.Page 5 EN 12263:1998 BSI 04-1999 Devices with fixed factory setting for high-pressure protection shall have a c
48、ut-out pressure kept within a deviation of 0 bar to20,25 bar or 0 % to28 % of the specified settings, whichever is the greater.
