The Air Movement and Control Association International (AMCA) is a not‑for‑profit international association of air system equipment manufacturers — primarily fans, louvers, dampers, and air curtains used in commercial buildings and industrial processes.
AMCA’s mission is to advance the knowledge, growth and integrity of the air movement and control industry. One of AMCA International’s most important functions is managing its many Certified Ratings Programs. The purpose of the Certified Rating Program is to give the buyer, specifier, and end user of air movement and control equipment, assurance that published ratings are reliable and accurate. At the same time, the program assures manufacturers that competitive ratings are based on standard test methods and procedures, and are subject to periodic check tests in AMCA International laboratories acting as an impartial authority.
Over the past 50 plus years, AMCA International has developed standardized test methods to cover the products within the AMCA scope. The list of products includes axial and centrifugal fans, power roof ventilators, ceiling ventilators, evaporative coolers, air circulation fans, jet tunnel fans, blowers, air curtains, acoustical duct silencers, dampers, energy recovery ventilators, louvers, positive pressure ventilators, propeller fans, agricultural fans, and airflow measurement stations. These standards cover performance relating to airflow measurement accuracy, air delivery, pressure, psychometrics, efficiency, power, torque, rpm, thrust, sound power levels, velocity uniformity, outlet velocity, wind driven rain water penetration, pressure drop, air leakage, dynamic closure and operations.
In addition to membership for manufacturers who participate in the AMCA Certified Rating Program, AMCA now recognizes the strategic partnership and support of those Engineers who specify or advocate the value of AMCA certified ratings as “Engineer Associates” of AMCA
