ASTM F1203-16

Standard Specification for Washing Machines—Pot, Pan, and Utensil, Heat Sanitizing, Commercial Rotary Conveyor Type

ABSTRACT
This specification covers manually fed, motor-driven rotary conveyor type, automatically controlled, commercial pot, pan, and utensil washing machines. The washer shall be of the following type, and class as specified. Motor-driven continuous rotary conveyor: type I - one door (front loading); type II - one or two door (pass-through corner operation); and type III - one or two door (pass-through straight line operation). Style and class: style 1 - steam heated; style 2 - electric heat; class A - injection; and class B - heat exchange coil. The design, construction, and performance requirements of the washing machine are presented in details. The operational test; leakage test; and energy and productivity test shall be performed to meet the requirements prescribed.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers manually fed, motor-driven rotary conveyor type, automatically controlled, commercial pot, pan, and utensil washing machines, hereinafter referred to as “the washer.”  
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.  
1.3 The following precautionary statement pertains only to the test methods portion, Section 9 of this specification: This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
