BS EN 4855‑01 is the first part of the multi-series of European standards on ECO efficiency of catering equipment in the aerospace series. BS EN 4855‑01 defines the test procedures and calculations to determine the ECO efficiency of the following catering equipment installed in an aircraft:
The purpose of BS EN 4855‑01 is to standardize the test procedures and calculations to determine the ECO efficiency for catering equipment installed in the aircraft.
BS EN 4855‑01 on ECO efficiency of catering equipment is useful for:
The main goals for a competitive and environmentally friendly operation are to reduce weight, fuel consumptions and thus to lower the costs leading to a more sustainable aircraft.
BS EN 4855‑01 specifies test procedures to improve the performance characteristics of catering equipment installed in an aircraft to provide food and ensure eco-efficiency of catering in aircraft. BS EN 4855‑01 also provides efficient calculation methods to determine the energy consumption index for aircraft catering equipment.
BS EN 4855‑01 guidelines enable you to produce aircraft catering equipment that consumes less electric energy and ensures reduced expulsion of hazardous elements and improved durability.
