consumption and grades for dishwashers
1 Scope
This standard specifies the energy efficiency limit values, water consumption
limit values, energy efficiency levels, water consumption levels, energy
efficiency and water consumption test methods for household and similar use
electric dishwashers (hereinafter referred to as dishwashers).
This standard applies to dishwashers using hot and / or cold water.
This standard does not apply to commercial or similar dishwashers.

dishwashing program.
3.2
According to the relevant provisions of GB/T 20290-2016, use the detergent B,
the test ambient temperature is (23 ± 2) °C, the relative humidity is (55 ± 5) %.
The test water’s hardness is (2.5 ± 0.5) mmol/L.
Note: For products in a use area of specific water hardness, the test is performed
according to the upper limit of water hardness specified by the manufacturer.
6.2 Test methods and calculations of energy efficiency index, water
efficiency index, cleaning index, drying index
6.2.1 Standard contaminants and tableware contamination methods
See Appendix A for standard contaminants and tableware contamination
methods.
6.2.2 Standard tableware
See Appendix B for standard tableware.
It is recommended to use standard tableware that has obtained the national
standard sample certificate.
6.2.3 Dishwasher
The dishwasher specified in Appendix M of GB/T 20290-2016 is applicable; its
tableware placement diagram is as shown in Appendix C.
It is recommended to use a standard dishwasher that has obtained the national
standard sample certificate; place it according to the tableware placement
instructions in the manual.
The cleaning performance of the standard dishwasher shall be within the range
of 3.55 ± 0.20; the drying performance shall be within the range of 0.81 ± 0.10,
otherwise the test is invalid.
6.2.4 Tableware loading method
Load in accordance with the information provided by the manufacturer.
6.2.5 Loading method of tableware in the oven
Refer to Appendix D for schematic diagram of tableware’s contamination state.
See Table E for how to load tableware in the oven.
6.2.6 Washing cycle
The tested dishwasher shall be tested at the washing cycle as recommended
by the manufacturer.
Apply minced meat contaminant to the bottom and inside of noodle
bowls, shallow dishes, soup bowls; leave a 20 mm clean strip on the
edges. If the number of noodle bowls is odd, the last odd noodle bowl is
applied with only half of the minced meat (use eggs for the other half). If
the number of shallow dishes is odd, the last odd noodle bowl is applied
with only half of the minced meat (use spinach for the other half). When
half is coated, the corresponding consumption of contaminant is also
50%.
- Contaminate spoon:
The amount of minced meat is about 1 g. Use a brush to apply the
minced meat on the head of the spoon at both the front and the back
side, without coating the handle. Lay the spoon up next to an unused
dish.
A.2.5 Egg
A.2.5.1 Preparation
At room temperature, place each egg with a mass of 50 g ~ 65 g for at least 7
days, but it shall not exceed the expiration date or shelf life. Eggs shall be stored
in the refrigerator and placed at room temperature before use.
Use at least 1 egg and separate the yolk from the egg whites. Use a fork to mix
the yolks in the bowl; remove the yolk skin.
A.2.5.2 Use
The contaminated tableware, the amount of contaminant used, the method of
contamination shall be carried out in accordance with the following
requirements:
a) Contaminated tableware
1/2 quantity rice bowl, 1/2 quantity noodle bowl, chopsticks, sauce dish,
1/2 quantity deep dish.
b) Consumption of contaminant
Rice bowl 1 g/piece, noodle bowl 1.5 g/piece, chopsticks 1/4 length, 0.05
g/piece, sauce dish 0.5 g/piece, deep dish 1 g/piece.
c) Contamination methods
Use a pastry brush with a width of about 25 mm; calculate the total weight
of the required contaminants based on the number of each set of personal
tableware. Put slightly more eggs and brushes in the container than
Oatmeal shall comply with Appendix E of GB/T 20290-2016.
Fully mix 50 g of oatmeal and 750 mL of cold water and 250 mL of milk that
meet the requirements of 5.6.3 in GB/T 20290-2016. After heating the mixture
to the boiling point, use mild fire (boiling state) to boil it for 10 minutes to make
oatmeal. During the cooking process, use a wooden spoon to stir it continuously.
Note: The bottom of the pot used for heating is double-layered, with good thermal
conductivity. The inner diameter of the pot is about 160 mm.
