AIR CONDITIONER UNIT AND METHODS OF OPERATION
An air conditioner unit may include a housing, an outdoor heat exchanger, an indoor heat exchanger, a compressor, a sterilization light assembly, and a controller. The controller may be configured to initiate a sterilizing operation. The sterilizing operation may include receiving a first command signal and directing activation of the sterilization light assembly at a first active intensity level for transmission of ultraviolet light emissions within the indoor portion in response to receiving the first command signal. The sterilizing operation may further include receiving a second command signal following the first command signal and directing activation of the sterilization light assembly at a second active intensity level for transmission of ultraviolet light emissions within the indoor portion in response to receiving the second command signal. The second active intensity level may be different from the first active intensity level.
FAN CONTROL SYSTEM, FAN SYSTEM, ACTIVE INGREDIENT GENERATION SYSTEM, FAN CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM
A fan control system according to the present disclosure includes a controller that selects a control mode from a plurality of control modes including a first mode and a second mode. The first mode is a control mode in which an electric signal is given to fan motor so that fan motor operates at the first rotation speed. The second mode is a control mode in which an electric signal is given to fan motor so that fan motor operates at a second rotation speed lower than the first rotation speed. The controller has a function of selecting the second mode in a period after the start of the fan motor and before the selection of the first mode.
SANITISATION SYSTEM AND METHOD
A sanitisation system comprising a chemical vaporising apparatus for storing and vaporising a sanitising chemical com- position. The chemical vaporising assembly comprising a housing configured to receive and retaining one or more sanitising chemical composition containing cartridges, a vaporiser located within the housing, the vaporiser configured to receive and convert a sanitising chemical composition in the chemical containing cartridges into a vapor, and an air purifier assembly located within the housing, the air purifier assembly configured to purify the air by removing vaporised sanitising chemical composition from the air and maintain a low humidity environment.
External thermostat fan controller
A programmable controller circuit that can be connected directly to the fan switch of any thermostat with a forced air heating and/or cooling system that includes a blower fan for circulating air throughout the home. The controller can be installed with minimal modifications to the existing wiring. The present invention increases the efficiency of the cooling system by evaporating condensate and extracting residual coolness from the thermal mass of the evaporator coils. The present invention can be programmed with a single button. A method of adapting additional fan run time based on .[.compressor run time.]. .Iadd.an AC compressor off time and an AC compressor on time.Iaddend..
Ventilation system for manhole vault
A system for use with a manhole vault having an internal atmosphere, and, optionally, with a ventilation stack connecting the vault to an external atmosphere. The system includes a manhole cover, a ventilation pipe, and an air moving assembly. The cover has one or more through-holes extending between top and bottom surfaces. Each of the through-hole(s) is in fluid communication with the external atmosphere at the top surface. The pipe has a through-channel that extends between first and second openings. The first opening is positioned proximal to either an opening into the ventilation stack or at least one of the through-hole(s) at the bottom surface of the cover. The second opening is positioned in the interior of the vault. The device is configured to cause a portion of one of the interior and external atmospheres to flow through the through-channel toward a different one of the interior and external atmospheres.
CRYOCOOLER AND MONITORING METHOD FOR CRYOCOOLER
The cryocooler includes an expander motor that operates an expander of the cryocooler, an inverter that is configured to control an operation frequency of the expander motor and is operable to drive the expander motor in the steady operation at an operation frequency lower than in the cool-down operation, a current sensor that measures a current supplied from the inverter to the expander motor, and outputs a motor current signal indicating the current; and a processor that monitors the expander motor on a basis of the motor current signal in at least the steady operation.
INTEGRATED HEAT PUMP SYSTEM
An integrated heat pump energy recovery ventilator system is provided for installing in a chase of a wall, the integrated heat pump energy recovery ventilator system comprising an air intake duct; an air outlet duct; a pump in fluid communication with the air intake duct; and in order: a heat pump compressor plate; an outer insulation panel; an outer energy recovery ventilator core; a heat pump evaporator plate and an inner energy recovery ventilator core, wherein the heat pump condenser plate, the outer heat pump energy recovery ventilator core, the evaporator plate and the inner heat pump energy recovery ventilator core all include at least a first series of channels and a second series of channels, the second series of channels disposed normal to the first series of channels, each series of channels.
Refrigerant vessel component and refrigeration circuit comprising such a refrigerant vessel component
This refrigerant vessel component (2, 4, 7) for a refrigeration circuit (100), comprises a shell (10) extending along a longitudinal axis (X) delimiting an internal volume (V), in which circulates a refrigerant fluid (R), whereas the refrigerant vessel component (2) comprises an inner shell (20) located radially inside the shell (10) and extending on at least a portion of the circumference of the shell (10), and whereas the inner shell (20) is at least partly formed of perforated material.
METHOD FOR INCREASING EQUIPMENT EFFECTIVENESS FOR HEALTHY BUILDINGS
A method for monitoring and controlling an environment of an internal space including: providing conditioned air to the internal space using a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system; detecting one or more environmental parameters within the internal space using at least one sensor; receiving a report request from an individual through a computer application of a computing device, the report request includes a focus area selection that selects one or more focus areas, wherein the one or more focus areas include at least one of an indoor air quality, a thermal comfort, or an airborne transmission; generating a performance report for the focus area based on at least the environmental parameters and specifications of the HVAC system, the performance report evaluating at least a performance of the HVAC system; and displaying the performance report on the computing device.
Method for operation control of compressor and the compressor
In a method for operation control of a compressor, full-load running in which a gas intake control valve is fully open and a target rotation speed of a drive source is set to a full-load rotation speed that is a maximum rotation speed in a speed control band when pressure of compressed gas supplied to the consumption side is a datum pressure or less is carried out; then no-load running in which the valve is fully closed and a no-load rotation speed is set as the target rotation speed of the drive source when the supply pressure is a no-load running pressure or less that is a pressure higher than the datum pressure is carried out. The no-load running is started from the standard no-load rotation speed, however, after a transition time, the target rotation speed is reduced to a low speed no-load rotation speed.
