Key Technical Risk & Problem Areas • These are some key technical risks that we believe might hamper our overall efforts • Sensor interfacing • Programming language selection - integration • Potential long lead time on various components • Size of prototype (transportation, work –space availability) • Component response to low temperatures • Power supply interfacing (step-down transformers, AC\DC conversion) • Signal control and processing • Microcontroller limitations • High costs of components and supplies

  11. EMC Standards • IEC 6100-3-3: Limitation of voltage fluctuations and flicker in low-voltage supplies <16A • Required because a low end voltage flicker could damage the compressor • IEC 6100-4-5: Surge Immunity tests • Required because the microcontroller and other components need to be protected from potential power surges • IEC 6100-4-11: Voltage dips, short interruptions, and variations • Required because brown out conditions will affect keypad thereby affecting overall performance

  12. Safety Standards • CSA C22.2 No. 14-95 • Applies for control and protective devices. Control devices covered in this standard include: pushbutton; flow-, pressure- operated switches; and proximity switches. • IEC 60335-2-34 • Applies for the safety of motor-compressors, their control and protection system which are intended for household purposes. • UL 873 • Temperature-Indicating and -Regulating Equipment: requirements for electrical equipment for control for refrigeration

  13. Specific Safety Requirements • Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) • Connected in series with the power source. Needed because there will be electronics in a potentially wet environment: the sensors near the keg. • Anti-tipping Mercury Switch • If the kegerator tips over, this will turn off the compressor.
