SPONSOR CPD PROGRAMME | HEATING AND COOLING Module 140 Name (please print)................................................................................. January 2019 Job title....................................................................................................... 1.In the example in Figure 1, how much is the pump power reduced between maximum and minimum flow? Organisation. ............................................................................................ A By less than 10% of the maximum power Address ..................................................................................................... B By between 10% and 30% of the maximum power C By approximately 50% of the maximum power D By between 60% and 90% of the maximum power E By more than 90% of the maximum power 2.Which one of these is unlikely to be true in the illustrated application of the DPCV? A One side of the diaphragm is influenced by the pressure at the valve inlet B The diaphragm will modulate the pressure to maintain a ..................................................................................................................... ..................................................................................................................... Postcode ................................................................................................... Email .......................................................................................................... Are you a member of CIBSE? If so, please state your constant flow through the load C The DPCV closes as the differential pressure across the diaphragm increases D The pressure in the branch flow pipework at the exit of the FODRV affects one side of the diaphragm E The valve spindle position is modulated by being directly connected to the diaphragm 3.In the PICV, which one of these is the primary purpose of the pressure test points? A To provide, indirectly, feedback of flowrate to the building management system B To allow the measurement of the available differential pressure across the whole PICV as a check when commissioning and testing membership number: ............................................................................
