22、is Standard establishes minimum public health and sanitation requirements for chemical sanitizing feeders, detergent feeders, rinse agent feeders, and similar devices for commercial spray-type dishwashing machines. 1.2 Scope This Standard covers chemical sanitizing feeders, detergent feeders, drying
23、 agent feeders, and similar devices that automatically maintain the concentration of additives in the prewash, wash, pumped rinse, or final rinse of commercial spray-type dishwashing machines. Equipment components and materials covered under other NSF or NSF/ANSI Standards or Criteria shall also con
24、form to the requirements therein. 1.3 Alternate materials, design, and construction While specific materials, design, and construction may be stipulated in this Standard, equipment that incorporates alternate materials, design, or construction may be acceptable when such equipment meets intent of th
25、e applicable requirements herein. This Standard is not intended to restrict new unit design, provided that such design meets the minimum specifications described herein. 1.4 Measurement Decimal and SI conversions provided parenthetically shall be considered equivalent. Metric conversions and signifi

Glossary of food equipment terminology 3 Definitions Terms used in this Standard that have special technical meaning are defined in NSF/ANSI
29、170. 4 Materials The requirements contained in this section are intended to protect food from contamination and ensure that the materials used in the manufacture of food service equipment resist wear; penetration by vermin; and the effects of foods, heat, cleaning compounds, sanitizers, and other su
30、bstances that may contact the materials in the intended use environment. Materials shall conform to the requirements in NSF/ANSI 51 applicable to the zone in which the material is used. 5 Design and construction This section contains design and construction requirements for equipment covered within
31、the scope of this Standard. 5.1 General Feeders shall automatically dispense additives to maintain the recommended concentration in the prewash, wash, pumped rinse, or final rinse. When installed according to the manufacturers instructions, the feeder shall prevent uncontrolled siphonage or discharg
32、e of chemicals into the prewash, wash, pumped rinse, or final rinse. 5.2 Service Feeders shall be fabricated to be easily cleaned, maintained, and serviced, and to facilitate chemical replenishment in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. 5.3 Water and waste connections The feeder shall be
33、 designed to be capable of being installed to comply with applicable codes. 5.4 Provision for mounting Feeders to be attached to the dishwashing machine cabinet shall conform to one of the following requirements: 5.4.1 Designed to prevent accumulation of moisture, seepage, and soil in the area aroun
34、d and between the feeder and mounting surface. 5.4.2 Designed to provide a clear, unobstructed space between the feeder and mounting surface to permit easy cleaning. 5.4.3 Designed to ensure that the area around and between the feeder and mounting surface is easily cleanable. 2017 NSF NSF/ANSI 29 20
35、17 3 5.5 Openings 5.5.1 Openings shall be located in a position protected from splash, spillage, and overhead drippage. 5.5.2 Screening on openings, if provided, shall be 16 mesh (minimum 16 strands per 1.0 in 25 mm) or equivalent and set in a removable sash for easy cleaning. 5.6 Louvers 5.6.1 Louv
36、ers that may be subject to overhead splashes, spills, and drips shall be of a drip deflecting design, or they shall be readily removable and the space immediately behind the louver easily cleanable. 5.6.2 If electrical safety requirements prohibit the use of readily removable louvers, then such louv
37、ers need only be removable. 5.6.3 Louvers shall be free of sharp edges and burrs and shall have spaces large enough to allow for easy cleaning. 5.7 Delivery verification 5.7.1 Rinse aid feeders shall be manufactured or equipped to provide an effective indication (visual or audible, or both) when add
38、itive supply is depleted, or when additive is not being delivered to the final rinse. NOTE Some examples of systems that meet the intent of this requirement are a clear sight-tube, or a translucent supply reservoir that shows the operator that the chemicals are depleted or no longer being dispensed.
39、 5.7.2 Detergent and chemical sanitizer feeders shall include: a visual means to verify that detergents and sanitizers are delivered; or a visual or audible alarm to signal if detergents and sanitizers are not available for delivery to the respective washing and sanitizing systems. NOTE Some example
40、s of systems that meet the intent of this requirement are a flow indicator, flashing light, buzzer, or visible open-air delivery system that shows the operator that the chemicals are no longer being dispensed. 5.8 Chemical sanitizing feeders 5.8.1 Chemical resistance Normally wetted surfaces shall b
41、e resistant to the concentration of sodium hypochlorite or other chemical solution to be used. 5.8.2 Delivery data A manufacturer shall provide data to permit the proper matching of feeder to dishwashing machine. Data shall include, but not be limited to: the feed rate (mL/second); the type and stre
42、ngth of solution; and the pressure against which the feeder will work (e.g., atmospheric, line water pressure). 2017 NSF NSF/ANSI 29 2017 4 5.8.3 Data plate If the chemical feeder is not an integral part of the dishwashing machine, each chemical feeder shall have a data plate that, at a minimum, inc
43、ludes the following information: name of manufacturer or trade name; model number; type of signal; duration of signal, if applicable; electrical characteristics; feed rate (mL/second). If the feeder has a variable feed rate, the manufacturer shall provide supply delivery data; feed time (seconds). I
44、f the feeder has a variable feed time, the manufacturer shall provide supply delivery data; line pressure, if applicable; and type and maximum concentration of solution to be delivered. 6 Performance 6.1 Hydrostatic test Feeders with water connections shall withstand a pressure equal to two times th
