BS EN 50597:2015EN 50597:2015 (E) 9 4 General requirements 4.1 Applicability This standard establishes the tests and calculations necessary to determine the energy rating of avending machine. The standar
34、d relates to the categories of vending machines described in Table 2. Table 2 Description of vending machine categories CATEGORY MACHINE TYPE COMMENT 1 Refrigerated closed fronted can and bottle machines where the products areheld in stacks These machines serve refrigeratedbeverages that are not vis
35、ible before vending. 2 Refrigerated glass fronted can and bottle, confectionery drink machines dispensing hot and/or cold drinks into cups; vending machines operating at temperatures below 0C. The machine manufacturer shall provide adequate information to confirm that the machine is suitablefor test
36、ing according to this specification and that it can perform the tests as required, if necessarywith minimum intervention by manufacturers technical staff. Information shall be provided by completing the test report in Annex B. 4.2 Test room Tests shall be carried out in a test room at (23 2) C and (
37、60 5)% relative humidity with defined airmovement. The conditions in the test room shall be measured by a probe located 500 mm upstreamof the vending machine (on the air supply side of the cabinet) in line with the front of the cabinet andat half the height of the vending machine being tested. Light
38、ing shall be installed to maintain (600 +/- 100) lx measured at a height of 1 m above the floorlevel. BS EN 50597:2015 EN 50597:2015 (E) 10 Air movement shall be provided. The air movement, shall be, as far as practicable, parallel to theplane of the cabinet opening and to the horizontal axis. The a
39、ir velocity at any point on the verticalside of the vending machine shall be between 0,1 m/s and 0,2 m/s. The direction of air flow shall be such that the air does not enter the cabinet when the door is open. 4.3 Instruments, measuring equipment and measuring accuracy All measurements shall be carri
40、ed out with instruments that have been calibrated. Temperature measurements shall be made to an accuracy of 1 C. Time measurements shall be made to the nearest 0,01 h. Relative humidity shall be measured to an accuracy of 5%. Electrical energy consumption shall be measured to a resolution of 0,01 kW
41、h and with an accuracyof 1%. NOTE See EN 50564 for guidance on power measurement. 4.4 Power supply The tolerance on power supply shall be 2% for voltage and 1% for frequency in relation to thenominal values given on the marking plate or otherwise stated by the manufacturer. 5 Conditions for the test
42、s 5.1 General Each machine intended to be tested shall be selected from stock or routine production and shall betypical in construction and have only default settings as supplied on delivery to the customer exceptas required to meet 5.6 and to achieve the operational modes required under 6.2.2. Mach
43、ines shall be prepared according to the manufacturers instructions as if they were to beinstalled in their intended vending location, including the fitting of parts such as leg covers andspacers. Unless otherwise specified, the tests are carried out on a single machine that shall withstand all there
44、levant tests and carried out in the order given in this standard. Machines shall be categorized according to the information in the manufacturers brochure. Where themachine is described as being capable of being operated with different sections at differenttemperatures, one of which sells perishable
45、 food, the machine shall be tested as a category 4machine. Where a machine is fitted with a chiller but no reference is made to perishable food, it shallbe tested as a category 2 machine. All carousel or drum machines (where the products on display are held on a circular disc) fitted with achiller s
46、hall be tested as category 3 machines. If it is evident from the construction of the machine that a particular test is not applicable, the test isnot carried out. EXAMPLE As an example, in a category 5 machine there is no reloading or pull down measurement. 5.2 Equipment location for test Figure B.1
47、 shows the position of the machine in the test room. BS EN 50597:2015EN 50597:2015 (E) 11 The machine shall be installed so that the rearmost part of the cabinet is a minimum of 100 mm fromany vertical surface at the rear of the machine. There shall be a minimum of 1 m between the side or front of t
48、he machine casing and any verticalsurface at the side or front of the machine. There shall be a minimum of 250 mm between the top of the machine and the ceiling of the test room. 5.3 Energy consumption and recording The energy consumption shall be measured by a direct meter reading method, as descri
