REFRIGERATION AND AIR CONDITIONING TECHNOLOGY

SYMBOLS AND TERMS USED IN REFRIGERATION AND AIR CONDITIONING TECHNOLOGY

In refrigeration and air conditioning technology stand-
ardised symbols are used for process schematics. For
refrigeration, the standard EN 1861 Refrigeration Systems
and Heat Pumps applies, and for air conditioning technol-
ogy, the standard DIN 1946 Ventilation and Air Condition-
SHUT-OFF AND EXPANSION ELEMENTS
ing Technology applies. This page introduces the most
frequent symbols used in this catalogue. The list only Valve with continuous adjusting
Valve, general
provides an extract of the available symbols. behaviour
