20、easure of repeatabilityof a reported test result.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The maximum energy input rate of the tank heater andthe booster heater, if applicable, is measured to confirm that thedishwasher is operating at the manufacturers rated input. If themeasured input rate is not within 5 % of
21、 the rated input, allfurther testing ceases, and the manufacturer shall be contacted.The manufacturer may make appropriate changes or adjust-ments to the dishwasher.NOTE 1It is the intent of the testing procedure herein to evaluate theperformance of a dishwasher at its rated gas pressure or electric
22、 voltage.If an electrical unit is rated dual voltage, that is, designed to operate ateither 208 or 240 V with no change in component, the voltage selected bythe manufacturer or the tester, or both, shall be reported. If a dishwasheris designed to operate at two voltages without a change in the resis
23、tanceof the heating elements, the performance of the unit, for example, cyclerate, may differ at the two voltages. Therefore the tests must be performedat both voltages and the results reported accordingly.4.2 Wash tank and booster temperatures are retained at themanufacturers factory settings.4.3 W
24、ater consumption is adjusted in accordance withmanufacturers rated water consumption per NSF/ANSI 3. Thepressure regulator valve is adjusted to 20 6 1 psi and the waterconsumption measured. If this is not within 60.15 GPM of theNSF rating or the manufacturers rating if not listed to NSFstandards, th
25、en the manufacturer shall be contacted.4.4 The tank heater energy rate is determine at idle, that is,when the tank temperature is being maintained, but no washingis taking place.4.5 Booster heater idle energy rate is determined.4.6 Dishwasher and booster energy consumption per rack ofdishes is deter
26、mined during a heavy-use scenario by washing atotal of 25 loaded dishracks.4.7 Water consumption (gal/h (L/h) is monitored duringtesting to determine the rate of water usage.5. Significance and Use5.1 The maximum energy input rate test is used to confirmthat the dishwasher is operating at the manufa
27、cturers ratedinput prior to further testing. This test method also will indicateany problems with the electric power supply, gas servicepressure, or steam supply flow or pressure.5.2 Tank and booster temperatures, as well as water con-sumption, are adjusted to NSF specifications to insure that thete
28、st is applied to a properly functioning dishwasher.5.3 Because much of a dishwashers operating period isspent in the idle condition, tank heater and booster idle energyconsumption rate(s) are important parts of predicting dish-washers energy consumption.5.4 The washing energy test determines energy
29、usage perrack. This is useful both as a measure for comparing the energyperformance of one dishwasher to another and as a predictor ofthe dishwashers energy consumption.5.5 Water-consumption characterization is useful for esti-mating water and sewage costs associated with dishwashingmachine operatio

Preparation of Apparatus9.1 Install the dishwasher in accordance with the dish-washer manufacturers instru
45、ctions under a 3-ft by 6-ft canopyexhaust hood or connect to vent cowl exhaust ducts. Vent cowlexhaust ducts should operate at a nominal 200 cfm (94.4 L/s)on the entrance side of dishwasher and 400 cfm (188.8 L/s) onthe discharge side or in accordance with manufacturersrecommendations, if applicable
46、. Record the ventilation rateused for the testing. The associated heating or cooling systemshall be capable of maintaining an ambient temperature of 756 5F within the testing environment when the exhaustventilation system is working and the appliance is beingoperated.9.2 Install the booster heater,
47、if it is not integral to thedishwasher, in accordance with the manufacturers recommen-dations. The pipe from the booster outlet to the dishwasherinlet shall be minimized and shall be wrapped with12-in.insulation along its entire length.9.3 Connect the booster to a supply of water, which iswithin 62F
48、 of its input temperatures, not to exceed140 6 2F.9.4 Connect the dishwasher (including tank heater, motorsand controls) and booster to calibrated energy test meters. Thedishwasher and booster shall not be monitored as one energyload. Separate monitoring will broaden the usefulness of thedata and en
49、hance the accuracy of the results.9.5 For gas installations, install a pressure regulator (down-stream from the meter) to maintain a constant (manifold)pressure of gas supplied to the dishwasher and booster heater,if applicable, for all tests. Install instrumentation to record boththe pressure and temperature of the gas supplied to thedishwasher and the barometric pressure during each test so thatthe measured gas flow can be corrected to standard conditions.9.6 For electric tank heaters and boosters, confirm, while theelements are
