23、 systems. 1.2 Scope Equipment covered by this Standard includes but is not limited to pulpers, disposers, and compactors used for processing refuse generated from facilities that may generate food wastes. These refuse processors are not intended for compaction of hazardous or infectious material. Sp
24、ecifically excluded are refuse collection trucks and refuse processors intended for use at transfer stations and in industrial operations. Equipment components and materials covered under other NSF or NSF/ANSI Standards or Criteria shall also comply with the requirements therein. This Standard is no
25、t intended to restrict new unit design, provided that such design meets the minimum specifications described herein. 1.3 Alternate materials, design, and construction While specific materials, design, and construction may be stipulated in this Standard, equipment that incorporates alternate material
26、s, design, or construction may be acceptable when such equipment meets the intent of applicable requirements herein. 1.4 Measurement Decimal and SI conversions provided parenthetically shall be considered equivalent. Metric conversions and significant figure rounding have been made according to IEEE
