Aerospace series - ECO efficiency of catering equipment - Part 01: General conditions prEN 4855-01

Publication date:   Apr 25, 2024

Scope

This document specifies the test procedures and calculations to determine the ECO efficiency of the following catering equipment installed in an aircraft:
- chilling equipment (with and without freeze function);
- ovens (steam and convection ovens);
- beverage makers (coffee maker, water heater);
- trash compactors (single and double bin);
- espresso makers (grain, powder, pad and capsule based).
Based on the results it will be possible to derive the energy consumption index and a performance index of the considered equipment type. The two index values represent the ECO efficiency.
