1.1These test methods evaluate the energy consumption and cooking performance of steam cookers. The food service operator can use this evaluation to select a steam cooker and understand its energy consumption.
1.2These test methods are applicable to the following steam cookers: high-pressure, low-pressure, pressureless and vacuum steam cookers (Specification F1217 Grades A, B, C and D); convection and non-convection steam cookers; steam cookers with self-contained gas-fired, electric, or steam coil steam generators, and those connected directly to an external potable steam source (Specification F1217 Styles i, ii, iii, and iv). The steam cookers will be tested for the following (where applicable):
1.2.1Maximum energy input rate (see 10.2).
1.2.2Preheat energy consumption and duration (see 10.3).
1.2.3Idle energy rate (see 10.5).
1.2.4Pilot energy rate (see 10.6).
1.2.5Frozen green pea cooking energy efficiency (see 10.8).
1.2.6Frozen green pea production capacity (see 10.8).
1.2.7Whole potato cooking energy efficiency (see 10.9).
1.2.8Whole potato production capacity (see 10.9).
1.2.11Cooking uniformity (see 10.11).
1.3The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The SI units given in parentheses are for information only.
