name & describe the 3 types of air filters.
|
*disposable filters- non-cleanable and replaced with new ones *permanenet filters-can be cleaned & reused *electronic filters-usually used with cleanable type prefilters
|
|
how is the inside humidity requirement affected by the outside temperature?
|
the colder the outside temp. the greater the need for humidifaction
|
|
what are the 3 types of evaporative humidifers?
|
*rotating-drum evaporative humidifer *fan-powered evaporative humidifier *flow-through evaporative humidifier
|
|
where is the fan located in respect to the heat exchanger on each type of furnace?
|
*horizontal-horizontally over the heat exchanger *upflow or highboy-below the heat exchanger *downflow or counterflow-above the heat exchanger *multipossition furnace-fan can be positioned either way
|
|
what is the range of particles removed by the electronic air filter?
|
0.1 to 10 microamps
|
|
where does the steam power humidifier get its steam?
|
uses an electrical heating element immersed in a water reservior to evaporate moisture into the furnace supply-air plenum
|
|
what are the two types of fan-motor arrangements?
|
*belt drive *direct drive
|
|
how much can the fan speed be adjusted with a variable-pitch motor pulley?
|
30 percent
|
|
if a motor has a 3 in. pulley,and the blower a 12 in. pulley, using a motor operating at 1200 rev/min,what is the speed of the fan?
|
3 in. divided by 12 in. times 1200=600 rev/min.
|
|
what are the 4 different configurations of parts available on forced warm air furnaces?
|
*horizontal *upflow or highboy *downflow or counterflow *multiposition furnace
|
|
describe the 2 types of heat exchangers on standard furnaces.
|
*individual-section heat exchanger has a number of seperate heat exchangers *cylindrical heat exchanger has a single combustion chamber
|
|
what material is used to construct the standard heat exchanger?
|
cold-rolled,low-carbon steel with welded or crimped seams
|
|
what is the purpose of the flushing device?
|
drains & refills the reservoir with clean,fresh water every 12 hrs.
