(Specification)Standard Specification for Food Waste Pulper Without Waterpress Assembly
Standard Specification for Food Waste Pulper Without Waterpress Assembly
ABSTRACT
This specification covers pulper assemblies intended for grinding of food scraps and limited amounts of cardboard, paper, and disposable plastic food service wear. Pulper assemblies shall be of the following types: Type A and Type B. Lubricating points shall be readily accessible, and the pulper shall be lubricated with the proper amount of lubricant prior to delivery. All surfaces of the machine, other than corrosion-resistant materials, shall be protected against corrosion in the use environment and shall present a neat appearance. Test method shall be performed to demonstrate the ability of the unit to meet the capacity requirements and to insure that there is no leakage during operation.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers pulper assemblies intended for grinding of food scraps and limited amounts of cardboard, paper, and disposable plastic food service wear.
1.2 The values as stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values stated in parentheses are provided for information only.
1.3 The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to the test method portion, Section 13, of this specification:
1.4 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.

3. Terminology
3.1 General—Pulpers are intended for grinding of food scraps and limited amounts of cardboard, paper, and disposable plastic
food service wear. Materials are ground in a water filled tank (pulper) to produce a slurry, which is then passed into a disposal
system or holding tank. Pulpers are not intended for grinding glass, china, metal, wood, clam, or oyster shell.
3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:
3.2.1 pulper, n—the pulper tank has a motor driven grinding disk to grind and cut waste material, and mixes this material with
water to produce a slurry that is pumped to a disposal system or holding tank through a sizing screen. Pulpers may consist of the
following principal parts: tank, motor, grinding disk, particle sizing ring, legs, feed chute, stationary cutters, and rotating cutters.
4. Classification
4.1 General—Pulper assemblies shall be of the following type, size, and options as specified.
4.2 Type, Size, and Options:
4.2.1 Type A—Free standing pulper with feed tray assembly and flanged feet.
4.2.2 Type B—Undercounter pulper for 34-in. (86-cm) high counter, with feed chute and flanged feet.
4.3 All equipment of the same model designation and options on the same purchase order shall have component
interchangeability for serviceability.
5. Ordering Information
5.1 Purchasers should select the preferred options permitted in this specification and include the following information in
procurement documents:
5.1.1 Title, number, and date of publication for this specification.

5.1.3 Electrical power supply voltage range (see 9.1).
5.1.4 Electrical controls when specified to be remote from the unit (see 9.3).
5.1.5 Spare and maintenance parts required.
5.1.6 Designate special features required for installation, such as location of controls.
5.1.7 When naval shipboard use is intended (see Supplemental Requirements).
6. Materials
6.1 Unless otherwise specified, pulpers shall be fabricated of materials as specified below. Materials shall be free from defects,
which would adversely effect the performance or maintainability of individual components or the overall assembly. The unit shall
be manufactured for cleanability.
