The amounts of test fuels to be utilizedare specified in Table 7.1.8 Extinguishment Tests8.1 General8.1.1 The tests shall be conducted in a relatively draft free area of a room having a minimum ambienttemperature of 10C (50F). The range shall be positioned within the test room su

23、ch that walls orobstructions shall be located at least1m(3ft.) away from the range.8.1.2 An extinguisher unit is to be tested using arrangements and the test vessels as described in 6.2 andTable 7.1.8.1.3 When tested as specified in 8.1.3 8.1.9, an extinguisher unit shall:a) Cause the flame in the t

24、est vessel to be completely extinguished;b) Not permit reignition of the oil for 15 minutes; andc) If the test vessel is tested with a thermocouple inserted in the cooking oil (see 7.2.2), causethe temperature of the oil to decrease below its observed auto-ignition temperature.8.1.4 Separate fire te

25、sts are to be conducted using the test vessel and oil types as described in Table7.1. For each test, the test vessel is to be filled with the specified amount and type of oil and positionedon a burner whose location is considered to be most difficult to achieve extinguishment.8.1.5 The range top bur

26、ner for the test vessel is to be adjusted to the maximum intensity position andallowed to heat the test vessel at a rate not less than 6C (12F) per minute at temperatures of 260 316C (500 600F) when measured with the thermocouple positioned in accordance with 7.2.2, until theoil auto ignites. The te

27、st vessel shall be uncovered during the heating process. An external heat sourceis permitted to be applied to attain this heating rate.8.1.6 The extinguisher is to be discharged onto the fire after the test vessel has burned freely for aminimum of 1 minute after auto ignition with all heating source

28、s continued to be applied.8.1.7 The extinguisher shall be continuously discharged onto the vessel from an initial distance of 1.5 m(5 ft) and no greater than a 45 degree angle from the center of the vessel until the extinguisher iscompletely discharged. After the initial discharge, the distance is p

29、ermitted to be reduced, but shall notextend beyond the edge of the cooking vessel. After the extinguisher is completely discharged, the energysupply to all heat sources is to be discontinued.JULY 21, 2005 SUBJECT 711A 7UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION ORDISTRIBUTION WI

30、THOUT PERMISSION FROM UL8.1.8 After discharge, observations are to be made for:a) Extinguishment;b) Reignition of the cooking oil; andc) A decrease in the oil temperature below the oil auto-ignition temperature.8.1.9 Based on observations made during the fire extinguishment tests described in Table

32、e completely extinguished; andb) cause no splashing or flaming oil outside the cooking vessel and no splashing of oil dropletslarger than 9.4 mm (3/8 in.) diameter 305 mm (12 in) past the outside surface of the cookingvessel due to the extinguisher operation.8.2.2 A clean, flat surface at least 610

33、mm (24 in) wide is to be prepared around the test vessel to detectsplashing oil.8.2.3 The amount of oil and the test vessel for the splash test described in Table 7.1 are to be used.8.2.4 The extinguisher discharge is to commence at distance of 0.6 m (2 ft) and at a 45 degree angle fromthe center of
