1.1This test method covers the evaluation of the energy consumption and cooking performance of open, deep fat fryers. The food service operator can use this evaluation to select a fryer and understand its energy efficiency and production capacity.
1.2This test method is applicable to both counter and floor model gas and electric units with nominal frying medium capacity less than 60 lb (27 kg). For large vat fryers with a nominal frying medium capacity greater than 60 lb (27 kg), refer to Test Method F2144.
1.3The fryer can be evaluated with respect to the following (where applicable):
1.3.1Energy input rate (10.2),
1.3.2Preheat energy and time (10.4),
1.3.3Idle energy rate (10.5),
1.3.4Pilot energy rate (10.6),
1.3.5Cooking energy rate and efficiency (10.10), and
1.3.6Production capacity and frying medium temperature recovery time (10.10).
1.4This test method is not intended to answer all performance criteria in the evaluation and selection of a fryer, such as the significance of a high energy input design on maintenance of temperature within the cooking zone of the fryer.
