Summary of Test Method4.1 The steam kettle is connected to the appropriate meteredenergy source, and the energy input rate is determined toconfirm that it is operating within 5 % of the nameplate energyinput rate.4.2 The steam kettle is filled to the point of overflow todetermine the fi

21、ll-to-spill capacity. For subsequent tests asmaller volume, the testing capacity, is calculated to allowadequate freeboard between the waterline and the lip of thekettle.4.3 The steam kettle is set to maximum input and monitoredas it heats water from 80F to 160F, which yields the heatupenergy effici

22、ency, heatup energy rate, and production capacity.4.4 The steam kettle controls are adjusted to maintain waterat 165F for three hours, yielding the simmer energy rate.4.5 When applicable, the energy required to maintain thestanding pilot for a gas appliance is measured, and the pilotenergy rate is r

23、eported.5. Significance and Use5.1 The maximum energy input rate test is used to confirmthat the steam kettle is operating within 5 % of the manufac-turers rated input so that testing may continue. This testmethod also may disclose any problems with the electric powersupply, gas service pressure, or

24、 steam supply flow or pressure.The maximum input rate can be useful to food serviceoperators for managing power demand.5.2 The capacity test determines the maximum volume offood product the kettle can hold and the amount of foodproduct that will be used in subsequent tests. Food serviceoperators can

25、 use the results of this test method to select asteam kettle, which is appropriately sized for their operation.5.3 Production capacity is used by food service operators tochoose a steam kettle that matches their food output. Theproduction capacity determined in this test method is a closeindicator o

26、f how quickly the kettle can bring soups, sauces, andother liquids up to serving temperature.5.4 Heatup energy efficiency and simmer energy rate allowthe operator to consider energy performance when selecting asteam kettle. Simmer energy rate is also an indicator of steamkettle energy performance wh

Barometer shall have a resolution of 0.2in. H

29、g and an uncertainty of 0.2 in. Hg.6.3 Canopy Exhaust Hood, 4 ft in depth, wall-mounted withthe lower edge of the hood 6 ft, 6 in. from the floor and withthe capacity to operate at a nominal exhaust ventilation rate of150 cfm/linear ft of active hood length.

31、ution of at least 0.01 ft3and a maximum uncertainty nogreater than 1 % of the measured value for any demand greaterthan 2.2 ft3/h. If the meter is used for measuring the gasconsumed by the pilot lights, it shall have a resolution of atleast 0.01 ft3and a maximum uncertainty no greater than 2 %of the

32、 measured value.6.5 Pressure Gage, for monitoring gas pressure. The gageshall have a range from 0 to 15 in.

35、ter, from municipal water supply or other potablesource.8. Sampling8.1 Steam KettleA representative production model shallbe selected for performance testing.9. Preparation of Apparatus9.1 Install the appliance in accordance with the manufactur-ers instructions under a 4-ft deep canopy exhaust hoodm

36、ounted against the wall, with the lower edge of the hood 6 ft,6 in. from the floor. Position the steam kettle with front edge ofthe cooking vessel inset 6 in. from the front edge of the hoodat the manufacturers recommended working height. Thelength of the exhaust hood and active filter area shall ex

37、tend aminimum of 6 in. past both sides of the cooking vessel. Inaddition, both sides of the appliance shall be a minimum of 3ft from any side wall, side partition, or other operatingappliance. The exhaust ventilation rate shall be 150 cfm/linearft of hood length. The application of a longer hood isa

38、cceptable, provided the ventilation rate is maintained at 150cfm/linear ft over the entire length of the active hood. Theassociated heating or cooling system shall be capable ofmaintaining an ambient temperature of 75 6 5F within thetesting environment when the exhaust ventilation system isoperating

39、.9.2 Connect the steam kettle to a calibrated energy testmeter. For gas installations, install a pressure regulator down-stream from the meter to maintain a constant pressure of gasfor all tests. Install instrumentation to record both the pressureand temperature of the gas supplied to the steam kett

40、le and thebarometric pressure during each test so that the measured gasflow can be corrected to standard conditions. For electricinstallations, a voltage regulator may be required during tests ifthe voltage supply is not within 62.5 % of the manufacturersnameplate voltage.9.3 For a gas steam kettle,

41、 adjust (during maximum energyinput) the gas supply pressure downstream from the appli-ances pressure regulator to within 62.5 % of the operatingmanifold pressure specified by the manufacturer. Make adjust-ments to the appliance following the manufacturers recom-mendations for optimizing combustion.

42、 Proper combustionmay be verified by measuring air-free CO in accordance withANSI Z83.11.9.4 For an electric steam kettle, while the elements areenergized, confirm that the supply voltage is within 62.5 % ofthe operating voltage specified by the manufacturer. Record thetest voltage for each test.NOT

43、E 1It is the intent of the testing procedure herein to evaluate theperformance of a steam kettle at its rated gas pressure or electric voltage.If an electric unit is rated dual voltage, that is, designed to operate at either208 or 240 V with no change in components, the voltage selected by themanufa

44、cturer or tester, or both, shall be reported. If a steam kettle isdesigned to operate at two voltages without a change in the resistance ofthe heating elements, the performance of the unit, for example, preheattime, may differ at the two voltages.9.5 Determine the control settings necessary to maint

45、ain astable simmer temperature in the kettle averaging 165 6 1F.If necessary, identify these control positions with a mark sothat the tester may quickly adjust the kettle between heatup andsimmer tests.10. Procedures10.1 General:10.1.1 If the steam kettle is equipped with a lid, all testsshall be co

46、nducted with the lid removed or fully raised.10.1.2 Optionally, all tests may be repeated with the lidclosed and the steam kettle reevaluated as a separate appliance.NOTE 2PG 10.1.3.2 Standard gas pressure and temperature used tocorrect measured gas volume to standard conditions;10.1.3.3 Measured ga

47、s temperature;10.1.3.4 Measured gas pressure;10.1.3.5 Barometric pressure;10.1.3.6 Ambient temperature; and,10.1.3.7 Energy input rate during or immediately prior totest.NOTE 3The preferred method for determining the heating value of gassupplied to the steam kettle under test is by using a calorimet

48、er or gaschromatograph in accordance with accepted laboratory procedures. It isrecommended that all testing be performed with gas with a heating valuebetween 1000 and 1075 Btu/ft3.10.1.4 For gas steam kettles, control electric energy con-sumption also shall be measured and added to gas energy forall

49、 tests, with the exception of the maximum energy input ratetest (see 10.2).NOTE 4If it is clear that the control electric energy consumption rateis constant during a test, an instantaneous power measurement can bemade when convenient during that test, rather than continuous monitoringof accumulated energy consumption. Energy can be estimated later, basedon the power measurement and the duration of the test.10.1.5 For electric steam kettles, the following shall beobtained and recorded for each run of every test:10.1.5.1 Voltage while elements are en
