Title
Standard Test Method for Energy Performance of Powered Open Warewashing Sinks
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Apr 1, 2004
Scope:
This test method evaluates the energy consumption of powered open
warewashing sinks. The food
service operator can use these tests to evaluate and select a suitable
washing device and
understand its energy consumption.
This test method applies to powered open warewashing sinks (powered
sinks) with the following
characteristics: a large main water sink with electrically powered
water pump(s) and multiple high
flow water nozzles. The unit may include gas or electric heaters to
maintain water temperature.
These powered sinks are designed to run for predetermined cycle
duration and accommodate pots and
pans of various shapes and sizes as well as cooking utensils. They are
intended for stand alone use
and require little supervision. The powered sink will be tested for
the following (where
applicable):
Maximum energy input rate (10.2),
Preheat energy consumption and duration (10.3),
Idle energy rate (10.4),
Pilot energy rate, if applicable (10.5), and
Washing cycle energy consumption (10.6).
NOTE 1 - This test method applies only to the powered portion of the
unit. Other compartments
(sanitizing, rinsing, and so forth) are not evaluated.
The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values given in
parentheses are for information only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
