IMM ACZ/AGZ-4 ACZ / AGZ-BM 19
Evaporator Temperature Drop Factors
Performance tables are based on a 10 degree F (5 degree C) temperature drop through the evaporator.
Adjustment factors for applications with temperature ranges from 6 degree F to 16 degree F (3.3
degree C to 8.9 degree C) are found in
Table 12 and Table 13. Ranges outside these temperatures
can affect the control system's capability to maintain acceptable control and must not be used.
The maximum water temperature that can be circulated through the evaporator in a non-operating
mode is 100°F (37.8°C).
Fouling Factor
Performance tables are based on water with a fouling factor of:
per ARI 550/590-98.

As fouling is increased, performance decreases. For performance at other than 0.0001 (0.0176)
fouling factor, refer to
Table 12 and Table 13. Foreign matter in the chilled water system will
adversely affect the heat transfer capability of the evaporator and could increase the pressure drop
and reduce the water flow. Maintain proper water treatment to provide optimum unit operation.
