(Specification)Standard Specification for Griddles, Single-Sided and Double-Sided, Gas and Electric
Standard Specification for Griddles, Single-Sided and Double-Sided, Gas and Electric
ABSTRACT
This specification covers griddles which utilize gas or electrical heat sources, or both, for cooking food in the commercial and institutional food service establishments. Griddles covered by this specification are classified by type, size, style, and electrical class. Type: type 1 - for counter top use; type 2 - stand mounted, including, stand with plain stand with casters, or stand with bolt-down legs; and type 3 - for flush installation. Styles: style 1 - gas-fired griddle; style 2 - electric griddle; and style 3 - combination gas-fired/electric griddle. Thermostat test shall be performed to meet the requirements prescribed.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers single-sided and double-sided griddles which utilize gas or electrical heat sources, or both, for cooking food in the commercial and institutional food service establishments.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The SI values given in parentheses are provided for information only.
1.3 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
