1、Designation:F214011An American National StandardStandard Test Method forPerformance of Hot Food Holding Cabinets1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2140;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of la
2、st revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method evaluates the preheat energy consump-tion and idle energy consumption of hot food holding cabinets.The food
3、service operator can use this evaluation to select a hotfood holding cabinet and understand its energy performance,temperature uniformity,and relative humidity(if applicable).Ahot food holding cabinet is described as a commercial kitchenappliance that is used to hold hot food(usually no greater than
4、200F)that has been cooked in a separate appliance at aspecified temperature.1.2 This test method is applicable to electric hot foodholding cabinets.1.3 The hot food holding cabinet can be evaluated withrespect to the following(where applicable):1.3.1 Energy input rate(10.2),1.3.2 Temperature calibra
