37、ll beselected 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 hoodmounted against the wall with the lower edge of the hood 6 ft,6 in. from the floor. Position the fryer with the front edg
38、e offrying medium inset 6 in. from the front edge of the hood at themanufacturers recommended working height. The length ofthe exhaust hood and active filter area shall extend a minimumof 6 in. past the vertical plane of both sides of the fryer. Inaddition, both sides of the fryer shall be a minimum
39、 of 3 ftfrom any side wall, side partition, or other operating appliance.Adrip station positioned next to the fryer is recommended. Theexhaust ventilation rate shall be based on 300 cfm per linearfoot of hood length. The associated heating or cooling systemshall be capable of maintaining an ambient
40、temperature of 756 5F within the testing environment when the exhaust systemis operating.9.2 Connect the fryer to a calibrated energy test meter. Forgas installations, a pressure regulator shall be installed down-stream from the meter to maintain a constant pressure of gasfor all tests. Both the pre
41、ssure and temperature of the gassupplied to a fryer, as well as the barometric pressure, shall berecorded during each test so that the measured gas flow can becorrected to standard conditions. For electric installations, avoltage regulator may be required to maintain a constant“nameplate” voltage du
42、ring tests if the voltage supply is notwithin 62.5 % of the manufacturers nameplate voltage.9.3 For a gas fryer, adjust (during maximum energy input)the gas supply pressure downstream from the fryers pressureregulator to within 62.5 % of the operating manifold pressurespecified by the manufacturer.
43、Make adjustments to the fryerfollowing the manufacturers recommendations for optimizingcombustion. Proper combustion may be verified by measuringair-free carbon monoxide (CO) in accordance withANSI Z83.11.9.4 For an electric fryer, confirm (while the fryer elementsare energized) that the supply volt
44、age is within 62.5 % of theoperating voltage specified by the manufacturer. Record thetest voltage for each test.NOTE 2This test method is intended to evaluate the performance of afryer at its rated gas pressure or electric voltage. If an electric fryer is rateddual voltage (that is, designed to ope
45、rate at either 208 or 240 V with nochange in components), the voltage selected by the manufacturer or tester,or both, shall be reported. If a fryer is designed to operate at two voltageswithout a change in the resistance of the heating elements, the perfor-mance of the fryer (for example, preheat ti
46、me) may differ at the twovoltages.9.5 Make fryer ready for use in accordance with themanufacturers instructions. Clean fryer by “boiling” with themanufacturers recommended cleaner and water and thenrinsing the inside of the fry pot thoroughly.9.6 To prepare the fryer for temperature calibration, att
47、achan immersion-type thermocouple in the fry pot before begin-ning any tests. The thermocouple used to calibrate the fryershall be located within 1 in. of the tip of the thermostat probe.If it is not possible to locate a thermocouple near the thermostatprobe, position the thermocouple at the rear of
48、 the fry pot, 2 in.below the oil fill line and12 in. from rear wall of the fry pot.10.
