Describes single unit electric food waste disposers for household and similar use, with or without automatic program control, for cold water supply, for permanent connection to water supply and sewage systems, intended for connection to the kitchen sink drain and contained within a kitchen cabinet enclosure.

This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows:

1.1 Scope

1.1.1 General

Replacement

These particular requirements apply to single unit electric food waste disposers for household and similar use, with or without automatic program control, for cold water supply, for permanent connection to water supply and sewage systems, intended for connection to the kitchen sink drain and contained within a kitchen cabinet enclosure.

Limitations for the use of this test code are given in 1.1.1 of IEC 60704-1.

1.1.2 Types of noise

Replacement

ISO 3743-1, ISO 3743-2, and ISO 3744 may be used for measuring noise emitted by food waste disposers.

1.1.3 Size of the source

Replacement

The method specified in ISO 3744 is applicable to noise sources of any size. When applying ISO 3743-1 and ISO 3743-2, care should be taken that the maximum size of the cabinet enclosing the food waste disposer under test fulfills the requirements specified in 1.3 of ISO 3743-1 and ISO 3743-2.

1.2 Object

Addition

Requirements for the declaration of noise emission values are not within the scope of this standard.

NOTE For determining and verifying noise emission values declared in product specifications, see IEC 60704-3.

1.3 Measurement uncertainty

Addition

Standard deviations for the kitchen machine category of appliances from IEC 60704-3 are applicable.
