All other pipes and connections shall be securely anchored and sufficient free length and/or vibration eliminators shall be provided to prevent failure due to fatigue. Where necessary, pipes and valves shall be adequately thermally insulated. SIST EN 16838:2016

« t w °C to +15 °C; — the scale division or smallest numerical increment shall be less than or equal to 1 °C; — the maximum errors shall be 2 K over the total measuring range; — the time constant t90 of the sensor shall be equal to or less than 20 min. NOTE The t90 time is the time in which 90 % of a sudden temperature change of 20 °C is indicated, the measurement medium being moderately agitated air (velocity 1 m/s). 5.1.5.3 Temperature sensor location The temperature sensor location shall be readily accessible to enable on site testing for the correct indication of temperature and replacement of the temperature measuring instrument on site in service. NOTE 1 The temperature sensor of a thermometer is considered to be “readily accessible” if it is reachable directly for examination. It ought to be necessary to remove access panel(s) to carry out replacement. NOTE 2 For Gelato scooping cabinets with natural convection cooling, the positioning of the temperature sensor in a guide tube is also considered to be “readily accessible” if the sensor is introduced into and removed from the guide tube without a tool. Wherever possible, the mounting method shall not supply heat to, or withdraw heat from the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor shall be protected against heat radiation from the external ambient. The temperature sensor location is defined as part of the temperature test of the Gelato scooping cabinet. During the temperature test air temperatures at the declared sensor location shall be measured and these values noted in the test report. NOTE 3 It is the responsibility of the supplier and end user to ensure that the temperature measurements complies with national regulation on temperature control of gelato. 5.2 Operating characteristics 5.2.1 Absence of odour and taste The absence of odour and taste is not compulsory. An optional test method is given in Annex A. SIST EN 16838:2016

Therefore the order of the climate class in the table is based on the water vapour mass column. 6.3.2.3.2 Climate measuring point The point for measurement of ambient temperature and relative humidity shall be locate in the test room airflow 100 mm upstream of the Gelato scooping cabinet (i.e. on the higher supply side of the Gelato scooping cabinet) in line with the work top of the Gelato scooping cabinet at a vertical height of 300 mm (see Figure 2). For plug-in Gelato scooping cabinets, the warm condenser air flow shall be prevented from influencing the temperature at the measuring point. SIST EN 16838:2016

Cellular or foam material shall not be used. Colour can be important if dark enough to be affected by ambient heat radiation; however, a pastel colour, e.g. light pink, pale blue or green, shall have no significant effect in normal surroundings.
