Certified Ratings Program - Product Rating Manual for Air Control Devices
AMCA Publication 511 dictates proper presentation of data and other required technical procedures for certification of air control devices under the AMCA Certified Ratings Program. This manual shall be used in conjunction with the current edition of AMCA Publication 11. The products within the scope of this program are air control devices for use in general ventilation and air-conditioning systems. This program shall apply only to a complete cataloged series of sizes. In regard to louvers, the program only applies to rectangular and square configurations. It shall not apply to individual sizes in a series, or part of a series of sizes, or to special units on which catalog ratings are not published. The AMCA Certified Ratings Program seal shall be used only in connection with the specifically certified device. The AMCA seal shall be used only on complete units. The application of the AMCA Certified Ratings Program seal to individual component parts, such as blades, frames, etc., is not permitted. The focus of the 2022 revision was the addition of air leakage rating requirements (Sec. 26, new) and air performance rating requirements (Sec. 15) of linkage-connected economizer dampers. Definitions of “air economizer” and “economizer damper” (now “linkage-connected economizer damper”) were updated, and figures of the three general types of linkage-connected economizer dampers was added (Annex B, new).
