1、Designation:F237904(Reapproved 2010)An American National StandardStandard Test Method forEnergy Performance of Powered Open Warewashing Sinks1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2379;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the ca
2、se of revision,the year of last 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 energy consumption ofpowered open warewashing sinks.The food serv
3、ice operatorcan use these tests to evaluate and select a suitable washingdevice and understand its energy consumption.1.2 This test method applies to powered open warewashingsinks(powered sinks)with the following characteristics:alarge main water sink with electrically powered water pump(s)and multi
4、ple high flow water nozzles.The unit may include gasor electric heaters to maintain water temperature.These pow-ered sinks are designed to run for predetermined cycle durationand accommodate pots and pans of various shapes and sizes aswell as cooking utensils.They are intended for stand alone useand
5、 require little supervision.The powered sink will be testedfor the following(where applicable):1.2.1 Maximum energy input rate(10.2),1.2.2 Preheat energy consumption and duration(10.3),1.2.3 Idle energy rate(10.4),1.2.4 Pilot energy rate,if applicable(10.5),and1.2.5 Washing cycle energy consumption(
6、10.6).NOTE1This test method applies only to the powered portion of theunit.Other compartments(sanitizing,rinsing,and so forth)are notevaluated.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are prov
