VSP 2018 Operations Manual

7.5.1.1.1 Water TMD Accuracy (22)
Water TEMPERATURE-MEASURING DEVICES scaled
• In Celsius or dually scaled in Celsius and Fahrenheit must
be designed to be accurate to ± 1.5°C (± 3°F) in the
intended range of use.
• Only in Fahrenheit must be designed to be accurate to ±
3°F in the intended range of use.

7.5.1.1.2 Pressure Gauge Accuracy (22)
Pressure measuring devices that display pressures in the water
supply line for the fresh hot water sanitizing rinse must have
increments of 7 kilopascals (1 pound per square inch or 0.07 bar)
or smaller and must be accurate to ±14 kilopascals (±2 pounds per
square inch or ±0.14 bar) in the 100–170 kilopascals (15–
25 pounds per square inch or 1.03–1.72 bars) range.

7.5.1.2 Warewashing Functionality

7.5.1.2.1 Water TMDs Readable (22)
Water TEMPERATURE-MEASURING DEVICES must be
designed to be easily readable.

7.5.1.2.2 Water TMD Scale (22)
Water TEMPERATURE-MEASURING DEVICES on
WAREWASHING machines must have a numerical scale, printed
record, or digital readout in increments no greater than 1°C (2°F)
in the intended range of use.

7.5.1.2.3 Warewasher Data Plate (22)
A WAREWASHING machine must be provided with an easily
ACCESSIBLE and readable data plate affixed to or posted
adjacent to the machine that indicates the machine’s design and
operating specifications including the
• Wash tank, rinse tank(s) if present, and final sanitizing
rinse temperatures.
• Pressure required for the fresh water sanitizing rinse unless
the machine is designed to use only a pumped sanitizing
rinse.
• Conveyor speed in meters or feet per minute or minimum
transit time for belt conveyor machines, minimum transit
time for rack conveyor machines, and wash and final
sanitizing rinse times as specified by the manufacturer for
stationary rack machines.
