AMCA: Air Movement and Control Association International, Inc.
AMCA International, the Air Movement and Control Association, is a nonprofit organization that develops and publishes standards for the heating, ventilating and air conditioning industry. Headquartered near Chicago, United States, AMCA represents over 300 members worldwide, roughly half outside the United States. In addition to developing AMCA standards, AMCA oversees an international Certified Ratings Program with over forty testing facilities to ensure compliance with AMCA standards. AMCA also serves as the administrator for the U.S. TAG (United States Technical Advisory Group) to ISO/TC 117 (International Organization for Standardization/Technical Committee). Standards from AMCA are available both individually, directly through the ANSI webstore, and as part of a Standards Subscription. If you or your organization are interested in easy, managed, online access to standards that can be shared, a Standards Subscription may be what you need - please contact us at: [email protected] or 1-212-642-4980 or Request Proposal Price.
Below are AMCA's best-selling standards. To find additional standards, please use the search bar above.
ANSI/AMCA 204-20
Balance Quality and Vibration Levels for Fans
This standard covers fans with rigid rotors generally found in commercial heating, ventilating and air conditioning; industrial process applications; mine/tunnel ventilation applications; and power generation applications. Some applications are excluded. This standard is intended to cover only the fan’s balance or vibration and does not consider the effect of fan vibration on personnel, equipment or processes.
ANSI/AMCA 210-16
Laboratory Methods of Testing Fans for Certified Aerodynamic Performance Rating
This standard establishes uniform test methods for a laboratory test of a fan or other air moving device to determine its aerodynamic performance in terms of airflow rate, pressure developed, power consumption, air density, speed of rotation, and efficiency for rating or guarantee purposes. This standard applies to a fan or other air moving device when air is used as the test gas with the following exceptions: (a) air circulating fans (ceiling fans, desk fans); (b) positive pressure ventilators; (c) compressors with inter-stage cooling; (d) positive displacement machines; (e) test procedures to be used for design, production, or field testing.

Reverberation Room Methods of Sound Testing of Fans
1. Purpose This standard establishes a method of determining the sound power levels of a fan. It was originally developed in response to the need for a reliable and accurate method of determining the sound power levels of fan equipment. 2. Scope This standard applies to fans of all types and sizes. It is limited to the determination of airborne sound emission for the specified setups. Vibration is not measured, nor is the sensitivity of airborne sound emission to vibration effects determined. The size of a fan that can be tested in accordance with this standard is limited only by the practical aspects of the test setups. Dimensional limitations, fan under test dimensions, and air performance will control the test room size, power and mounting requirements for the fan under test. The test setup requirements in this standard establish the laboratory conditions necessary for a successful test. Rarely will it be possible to meet these requirements in a field situation. This standard is not intended for field measurements.

Laboratory Methods of Testing Louvers for Rating
1. Purpose The purpose of this standard is to establish uniform laboratory test methods for louvers. Characteristics to be determined include air leakage, air performance (pressure drop), water penetration, wind-driven rain, wind-driven sand and operational torque. It is not the purpose of this standard to establish minimum or maximum performance ratings. 2. Scope This standard may be used as a basis for testing louvers with air as the test gas. Tests conducted in accordance with the requirements of this standard are intended to demonstrate the performance of a louver and are not intended to determine the acceptability of performance. It is not in the scope of this standard to indicate actual sequences of testing or to specify minimum or maximum criteria for testing.
