Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers food cookers and food reheat-ers
3、which use steam as the heat source. These units are alsoknown as steamers, steam ovens, and steam cookers whichutilize steam generated by gas, electric heat, or steam coilsources, or a combination thereof, in commercial and institu-tional food service establishments. This specification can beused fo
4、r sub-zero-pressure steamers, pressure steamers, com-bination pressure/pressureless steamers, boilerless steamers,and connectionless steamers, and does not cover steam cookingequipment used by food processors who normally package thefood that they cook.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are t
