simultaneity factor - ,vthneq−=thermal airflow not extracted - 4 Objectives of kitchen ventilation The system shall ensure extraction of odours, pollutants and humidity so the indoor air quality shall not be affected negatively. If the extract and supply airflows are designed according to this standard, this requirement concerning the air quality is assumed to be fulfilled. The ventilation system shall be capable of separating aerosol from the extract air. NOTE Extract and supply air systems are necessary in commercial kitchens because: — the air is polluted by odours, particles of fat and gaseous products of combustion and other particulates, this pollution needs to be removed; — indoor air quality needs to be suitable for peoples' health, hygiene and comfort; — heat is created to a considerable extent due to convection and radiant heat and this heat needs to be kept at an acceptable level; — moisture is created by various kitchen processes and this moisture needs to be kept at an acceptable level; — it is necessary to renew the air in the rooms by an exchange with outside air and maintain comfortable or specified room air conditions. 5 Classification of kitchens Kitchens are classified according to the following features: — spatial arrangement of appliances; — types of meal preparation; — number of portions to be prepared within the time limit; — variety of meals to be prepared; — work sequence; The kitchen shall be classified in accordance with Table A.2 in normative Annex A. The following are possible ways of connecting the kitchen to the meal dispatch point: — kitchens with a directly-connected meal dispatch point to the dining room; — kitchens with a separately-arranged meal dispatch point or with a distribution kitchen; SIST EN 16282-1:2017



EN 16282-1:2017 (E) 7 — kitchens within dining areas without a spatial separation, e.g. snack bars etc. There are zones within kitchens which can be subject to special hygiene needs. These are for example. — cold areas; — hot areas; — meat preparation areas; — fish preparation areas; — meal dispatched areas. 6 Design principles 6.1 General requirements Kitchens with kitchen equipment of a nominal power supply exceeding 25 kW shall have mechanical extract and supply air. All other kitchens shall have at least a mechanical exhaust air system (one passive air inlet may be tolerated). NOTE 1 Please note the possible existence of National regulations regarding exhaust and supply air to kitchens. NOTE 2 Typical kitchen equipment emitting critical air pollution: — Dish Washer; — Microwave Oven/Toaster; — Bains Marie/Hot Cupboard; — Induction Hob/Glass ceramic hob; — Pastry/Bakery Oven; — Oven; — Boiling Pan/Tilting Kettle; — Bratt Pan/Tilting Skillet; — Open Top Range and Oven; — Griddle; — Fryer; — Rotisserie; — Chain Broiler (Burger Conveyor); — Salamander/Steak Grille; — Chargrille/Charbroiler; — Wok Range. SIST EN 16282-1:2017



EN 16282-1:2017 (E) 8 The following data and facts shall be available for the design and operation of ventilation and supply air systems for kitchens: — type of kitchen; — number of portions to be prepared per time unit; — operating time; — room geometry; — physical data for the individual building components; — type and intensity of lighting; — type of appliances and connected loads; — installation and dimensions of appliances; — simultaneity of appliance utilization. NOTE 3 To minimize the necessary airflows, it is useful to install heat-emitting appliances in continuous groups or along surfaces forming room boundaries. If the extract or exhaust air comes into direct contact with the structure of the building, ensure that this does not damage the building structure and that no persistent condensation occurs. 6.2 Heat and pollutant loads Areas with different pollution loads occur within kitchens. The total heat emission takes place directly due to convection, radiation and latent heat due to the generation of steam and other gaseous components. Radiant heat intensive areas are characterized by high surface temperatures of cooking appliances. The direct heat relative to the connected load of the appliances, as well as the emission of steam are given for individual appliances in Annex A for normal operation and limited operation. The values given in Table A.3 applies to dishwashers. NOTE 1 The attention of the user of this standard is drawn to the possible existence of national regulations or guidelines regarding the pollution levels due to foreign substances in the air and micro-organisms. NOTE 2 Foreign substances in the air occur at almost at any time food is heated. The type and amount are influenced particularly by the amount of fat and the temperature, with the ensuing pyrolyzates being possibly damaging to health. All types of dish washers require extraction hoods or ventilated ceilings. To achieve a cost-effective design of the ventilation and supply air systems, the values in Table A.1, shall be used. NOTE 3 It might be necessary to cool down inlet air if ambient air is warm and of a high humidity for reasons of hygiene. Partitions between individual preparation areas in kitchens might be necessary particularly for areas requiring different levels of temperature or hygiene. SIST EN 16282-1:2017



EN 16282-1:2017 (E) 9 7 Ergonomic and hygiene requirements 7.1 Thermal comfort, tolerance For the following it is assumed that kitchen personnel wear clothing with an average clothing insulation corresponding to 0,6 clo. This value shall be used for the relevant comfort parameters in accordance with EN ISO 7730 (humidity, air movement, radiant heat, temperature). The ventilation system shall maintain the air quality within range 1 specified in Figure 1. Air temperature and humidity are measured at a height of 1,10 m above the floor at a distance of 0,50 m from the appliances.
Key X wet bulb temperature in °C Y air temperature in °C a relative humidity in % 1 comfort range at the workplace 2 tolerable range at the workplace Figure 1 — Air quality range in kitchens It is not always possible to maintain thermal comfort in kitchens. This applies particularly to work areas close to kitchen appliances which are strong heat emitters (latent and sensible heat), e.g. within a distance of approximately 1 m of stoves with heat-radiating surfaces, tilting frying pans, large fryers or dishwashers. In these areas, tolerable climatic conditions according to range 2 of Figure 1 shall be considered. NOTE If too many heat-emitting cooking appliances are installed in a room which is not sufficiently large enough for the purpose, it might not be possible to meet the ergonomic requirements for ventilating systems. 7.2 Temperature of room air The temperature of the room air in kitchens and dishwashing area shall be at least 18 °C and shall not exceed 26 °C unless unavoidable due to the processes. This does not include seasonal, excess temperatures or areas in which higher or lower temperatures are unavoidable due to their function. SIST EN 16282-1:2017



EN 16282-1:2017 (E) 10 NOTE Cooling of the room air is required by some national regulations and guidelines. 7.3 Humidity of room air Because comfortable climatic conditions might not always be achieved in kitchens, the design of a ventilation and air conditioning system can be based on a maximum moisture content of the air of 16,5 g of water per kg of dry air. NOTE In comfort areas, the upper limit of the moisture content of the air is 11,5 g of water per kg of dry air and 65 % relative humidity. If no reliable data is available regarding the lower limit of the relative humidity of the room air, 30 % relative humidity of the room air may be taken as the comfort limit – as independent as possible from the temperature of the room air – with occasional undershoots being acceptable. An additional humidification of the air space is not required. 7.4 Air velocity in the room The limiting values, an example curve is shown in Figure 2 for 0,6 clo, shall not be exceeded. Measurements are generally carried out at the workstation at a height of 1,7 m. NOTE 1 The limits of the air velocity in the comfort area depend on the temperature of the room air, the turbulence of the flow, the degree of activity and the thermal resistance of the clothing.
Key X temperature of room air in °C Y permissible mean air velocity in m/s 1 degree of activity 2 Figure 2 — Example of permissible mean room air velocity as a function of the room air temperature for 0,6 clo NOTE 2 Draughts due to higher airflow velocities can occur, particularly where there are supply airflows in excess of 90 m3/(m2h). SIST EN 16282-1:2017



EN 16282-1:2017 (E) 11 7.5 Noise control The calculation of the sound level induced by the ventilation in the kitchen shall be addressed by the designer. The A-weighted sound pressure level and air-conditioning system should be limited to 60 dB(A) measured in work area. Where the meals are handed out from an open counter, the A-weighted sound pressure level should not exceed 50 dB(A). This value may exceed by 5 dB(A) in areas where tableware and utensils are washed. The calculation shall be carried out in the working area at a high of 1,55 m above the floor. Sound levels should be optimized when designing ventilation and air conditioning systems, particularly with a view to minimising the use of sound absorbing measures in the extract and exhaust air. This also means that the sound power level of the extraction fan should be minimized. Sound absorbing surfaces may also be used in the room as additional sound insulation, but this should be consistent with other requirements. 7.6 Hygiene requirements From the point of view of hygiene, the ventilation and air conditioning system for kitchens shall prevent the contamination of food by the airflow during preparation, storage and distribution and shall also prevent the spread of odours, pollutants and other gaseous substances by the airflow. NOTE The attention of the user of this standard is drawn to the possible existence of national hygiene regulations. Hygiene requirements shall be set for individual components, system concepts and maintenance so that the ventilation system conforms. If different levels of hygiene requirements are required for different areas of the kitchen, this shall be achieved by appropriate airflow transfer in the room. All airflows (supply and exhaust air) from all kitchen zones shall be balanced over the entire kitchen area. A slight negative pressure shall be maintained in the kitchen in order to avoid odours spreading from the kitchen. When this is done, however, the recirculation of air from rooms where the hygiene is questionable shall be precluded. Ventilation and air conditioning systems shall be operated using outside air. Heat recovering systems shall only be used after suitable filtering, treatment and cleaning of the extract air. Hygiene requirements shall be jointly agreed with the kitchen designer, planner for ventilation system, the operator and, where necessary, the supervisory authorities. 8 Design principles 8.1 General The main design variables for supply air equipment in kitchens are as follows: —
extract airflows through kitchen hoods/ceilings — supply airflows; — room extract airflows (general ventilation). The kitchen shall be equipped with a ventilation system in order to deal with thermal loads and humidity. If the kitchen is air conditioned, these parameters are necessary to calculate the cooling capacity. SIST EN 16282-1:2017



EN 16282-1:2017 (E) 12 The extraction airflow shall be designed to provide the maximum possible pollutant extraction above the cooking point. The supply airflow shall be designed to carry the heat and pollutant loads from the work area so that the requirements regarding the thermal environment and comfort are met. To prevent transfer of kitchen odours to areas outside the kitchen, a negative pressure in the kitchen is recommended. Unfiltered outside air shall not be introduced into the kitchen area. All doors to the kitchen area shall be operable in order to facilitate escape out of the room regardless of negative pressure. The values for restricted operation are used for calculating the part load. Examples of airflow calculation are given in Annex B. 8.2 Preliminary calculations 8.2.1 General The following preliminary calculation methods shall not replace a detailed calculation taking into account kitchen appliances. 8.2.2 Hourly air change rate method based on the kitchen size When no information relating to the equipment is available, a rough calculation should be made in accordance with Table 1. The rough calculation shall only be used for estimation in the initial planning stage. In each case, a detailed calculation in accordance with 8.3 shall be carried out when the necessary information is available. The values in Table 1 for normal operation shall be used as a basis for dimensioning the airflows. Normal operation is presumed to be an economical method of operation. Separate agreements shall be reached where the use of equipment deviates from this (e.g. cooking with cooker lid open). Table 1 — Hourly air replacement method Type of kitchen Air volume factor (default value) [m³/h per m²] Overall kitchen 90 roasting, grilling and baking / dishwashing area 120 8.2.3 Method based on the capture velocity If there is some additional information available relating to the kitchen appliances, the following method should be used in calculating the flow rate on the basis of the airflow velocity (v) in the free space between lower edge of hood and top edge of the cooking appliances. NOTE This method also checks that the final calculation will be compatible with the room volume (above 50 ACH it will be difficult to achieve satisfactory room air velocities). For velocities ranging from 0,15 to 0,30 m/s, depending on the type of appliance, particle removal is correct. — Light loading – 0,15 m/s Applies to steaming ovens, boiling pans, bains maries and stock-pot stoves. SIST EN 16282-1:2017



EN 16282-1:2017 (E) 13 — Medium Loading – 0,225 m/s Applies to deep fat fryers, bratt pans, solid and open top ranges and griddles — Heavy Loading – 0,3 m/s Applies to chargrills, mesquite and specialist broiler units. The total hood extract volume rate shall be calculated in accordance with Formula (1). dexttvhUvq×××=−3600, (1) 8.2.4 Guide values for ancillary rooms Guide values for ancillary rooms are given in Table 2.

The flow pattern is determined by the convectively transmitted proportion of the sensible heat load KSQ, of the kitchen appliances. The convected share shall be calculated in accordance with Formula (2) using the values for the sensible heat emission at the appliances given by the manufacturer or in Table A.1: SIST EN 16282-1:2017

4 Objectives of kitchen ventilation
Supply and exhaust air systems shall be installed in kitchen areas in such a way that they ensure that odours,
air pollutants and moisture are drawn off. The air in rooms not forming part of the kitchen area shall not be
impaired and no air which could be considered unhygienic shall be supplied to these rooms and it shall not be
possible for such air to flow back into these rooms.
The ventilation system shall be capable of separating odours, particles of fat and gaseous products from the
exhaust air.
Note Ventilation and supply air systems are necessary in commercial kitchens because:
 the air is polluted by odours, particles of fat and gaseous products of combustion and other particulates, this pollution
needs to be removed;
 indoor air quality needs to be suitable for peoples' health, hygiene and comfort;
 heat is created to a considerable extent due to convection and radiant heat and this heat needs to be kept at an
acceptable level;
 moisture is created by various kitchen processes and this moisture needs to be kept at an acceptable level;
 it is necessary to renew the air in the rooms by an exchange with outside air and maintain comfortable or specified
room air conditions.
5 Classification of kitchens
Kitchens are classified according to the following features:
 spatial arrangement of appliances;
 types of meal preparation;
 number of portions to be prepared within the time limit;
 variety of meals to be prepared;
 work sequence;
 assignment of individual rooms within kitchen area and the kitchen area itself to the meal dispatch point
6

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 16282-1:2014
prEN 16282-1:2014 (E)
The kitchen shall be classified in accordance with Table A.2 in normative Annex A.
The following are possible ways of connecting the kitchen to the meal dispatch point:
 kitchens with a directly-connected meal dispatch point to the dining room;
 kitchens with a separately-arranged meal dispatch point or with a distribution kitchen;
 kitchens within dining areas without a spatial separation, e.g. snack bars etc.
There are zones within kitchens which can be subject to special hygiene needs. These are for example.
 cold areas;
 hot areas;
 meat preparation areas;
 fish preparation areas;
 meal dispatched areas.
6 Design principles
6.1 General requirements
Kitchens with kitchen equipment of a nominal power supply exceeding 25 KW shall have exhaust and supply
air. All other kitchens shall have at least an exhaust air system.

The following data and facts shall be available for the design and operation of ventilation and supply air
systems for kitchens:
 type of kitchen;
 number of portions to be prepared per time unit;
 operating time;
 room geometry;
 physical data for the individual building components;
 type and intensity of lighting.
Details of the following shall also be available:
 type of appliances and connected loads;
 installation and dimensions of appliances;
 duty times;
 similarity of appliance utilization.
NOTE 3 To minimize the necessary airflows, it is useful to install heat-emitting appliances in continuous groups or along
surfaces forming room boundaries.
If the exhaust air comes into direct contact with the structure of the building, to the ventilation system shall be
suitable to ensure that this does not damage the building structure and that no persistent condensation
occurs.
6.2 Heat and pollutant loads
Pollution loads can vary within the kitchen’s radiant heat.
Radiant heat intensive areas are characterized by high surface temperatures of cooking appliances Radiant
heat. The direct and latent heat relative to the connected load of the appliances, as well as the emission of
steam are given for individual appliances in Annex A for normal operation and limited operation. The values
given in Annex A, Tables A.3 and A.4, apply to dishwashers.
NOTE 1 The attention of the user of this standard is drawn to the possible existence of national regulations or
guidelines regarding the pollution levels due to foreign pollutant pollution in the air and micro-organisms.

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 16282-1:2014
prEN 16282-1:2014 (E)
NOTE 2 Foreign pollutant pollution in the air occur at almost at any time food is heated. The type and amount are
influenced particularly by the amount of fat and the temperature, with the ensuing pyrolyzates being possibly damaging to
health. These particularly include short-chain aldehydes, such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, tr-2 hexenal and acrolein
as well as highly-volatile nitrosamines and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g. benzo-a-pyrene).
All types of dish washers require extraction hoods or ventilated ceilings.
To achieve a cost-effective design of the ventilation and supply air systems, the values in Annex A, Table A.1,
shall be used.
NOTE 3 It might be necessary to cool down inlet air if ambient air is warm and of a high humidity for reasons of hygiene.
Partitions between individual preparation areas in kitchens might be necessary particularly for areas requiring different
levels of temperature or hygiene.
7 Ergonomic and hygiene requirements
7.1 Thermal comfort, tolerance
For the following it is assumed that kitchen personnel wear clothing with an average clothing insulation
corresponding to 0.6 clo. This value shall be used for the relevant comfort parameters in accordance with
EN ISO 7730 (humidity, air movement, radiant heat, temperature) given in Figure 1. The ventilation system
shall maintain the air quality within range 1 specified in Figure 1.
Air temperature and humidity are measured at a height of 1.10 m above the floor at a distance of 0.50 m from
the appliances.

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 16282-1:2014
prEN 16282-1:2014 (E)
It is not always possible to maintain thermal comfort in kitchens. This applies particularly to work areas close
to kitchen appliances which are strong heat emitters (latent and direct heat), e.g. within a distance of
approximately 1 m of stoves with heat-radiating surfaces, tilting frying pans, large fryers or dishwashers. In
these areas, tolerable climatic conditions in accordance with EN ISO 7730 shall be guaranteed as a minimum.
NOTE If too many heat-emitting cooking appliances are installed in a room which is not sufficiently large enough for
the purpose, it might not be possible to meet the ergonomic requirements for ventilating and supply air systems.
7.2 Temperature of room air
The temperature of the room air in kitchens and sculleries shall be at least 18 °C and shall not exceed 26 °C
unless unavoidable due to the processes. This does not include seasonal, excess temperatures or areas in
which higher temperatures are unavoidable due to their function.
NOTE 1 Draughts due to higher airflow velocities can occur, particularly where there are supply airflows in excess of 90
3 2
m /(m h).
NOTE 2 Cooling of the room air is required by some national regulations and guidelines. It leads also to a good thermal
comfort.
7.3 Humidity of room air
Because comfortable climatic conditions might not always be achieved in kitchens, the design of a ventilation
and air conditioning system can be based on a maximum moisture content of the air of 16.5 g of water per kg
of dry air.
NOTE In comfort areas, the upper limit of the moisture content of the air is 11.5 g of water per kg of dry air and 65 %
relative humidity.
No reliable data is available regarding the lower limit of the relative humidity of the room air. 30 % relative
humidity of the room air may be taken as the comfort limit – as independent as possible from the temperature
of the room air – with occasional undershoots being acceptable.
An additional humidification of the air space is not required.
7.4 Air velocity in the room

The limiting values, an example curve is shown in Figure 2 for 0.6 clo, shall not be exceeded. Measurements
are generally carried out at the workstation at a height of 1.7 m.
NOTE The limits of the air velocity in the comfort area depend on the temperature of the room air, the turbulence of the
flow, the degree of activity and the thermal resistance of the clothing.

for 0.6 clo
7.5 Noise control
The A-weighted sound pressure level emitted by a ventilation and air-conditioning system shall be limited to
60 dB(A) measured in work area. Where the meals are handed out from an open counter, the A-weighted
sound pressure level shall not exceed 50 dB(A). Exceeding this value by 5 dB(A) is permissible in areas
where tableware and utensils are washed.
NOTE 1 The attention of the user of this standard is drawn to the possible existence of national legislation regarding
noise control.
NOTE 2 Sound levels and flows should be optimized when designing ventilation and air conditioning systems,
particularly with a view to minimizing the use of sound absorbing measures in the exhaust air. This also means that the
sound power level of the extraction fan should be minimized.
NOTE 3 Sound-absorbing surfaces may also be used in the room as additional sound insulation, but this should be
consistent with other requirements.
7.6 Hygiene requirements
From the point of view of hygiene, the ventilation and air conditioning system for kitchens shall prevent the
contamination of food by the airflow during preparation, storage and distribution and shall also prevent the
spread of odours, pollutants and other gaseous pollutants by the airflow.
NOTE The attention of the user of this standard is drawn to the possible existence of national hygiene regulations.
Hygiene requirements shall be set for individual components, system concepts and maintenance so that the
ventilation system conforms to the above requirements. If different levels of hygiene requirements are required
for different areas of the kitchen, this shall be achieved by appropriate airflow transfer in the room.
All airflows (supply and exhaust air) from all kitchen zones shall be balanced over the entire kitchen area.
A slight underpressure shall be maintained in the kitchen in order to avoid odours spreading from the kitchen.
When this is done, however, the recirculation of air from rooms where the hygiene is questionable shall be
precluded.
11

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 16282-1:2014
prEN 16282-1:2014 (E)
Ventilation and air conditioning systems shall be operated using external air or suitably treated re-circulated
air. Heat recovering systems shall only be used after suitable filtering, treatment and cleaning processes.
Recirculated air shall not be used.
Hygiene requirements shall be jointly agreed with the kitchen designer, planners of the room air, the operator
and, where necessary, the supervisory authorities.
8 Design principles
8.1 General
The main design variables for supply air equipment in kitchens are as follows:
 extraction airflows through kitchen hoods/ceilings
 supply airflows;
 room exhaust airflows (general ventilation).
It is required to have an exhaust in the kitchen in order to deal with thermal loads and humidity. If the kitchen
is air conditioned, these parameters are necessary to calculate the cooling capacity.
The extraction airflow shall be designed to provide the maximum possible pollutant extraction above the
cooking point.
The supply airflow shall be designed according to the heat or pollutant loads to be carried from the work area
so that the pollutant limit values and the requirements regarding the thermal environment are met.
The room exhaust airflow is the difference between the supply airflow and the airflow into the extraction
system.
To prevent the potential transfer of kitchen odours to areas outside the kitchen, a slight under pressure in the
kitchen is recommended.
Unfiltered air shall not be introduced into the kitchen area. All doors to the kitchen area shall be operable in
order to facilitate escape out of the room regardless of underpressure.
The values in Table 1 for normal operation shall be used as a basis for dimensioning the airflows. Normal
operation is presumed to be an economical method of operation. Separate agreements are to be reached
where the use of equipment deviates from this (e.g. cooking with
