BS EN 13248:2002 PDF Download

A thorough set of definitions, specifications, and test procedures for coffee makers used in household settings with an independent heat source are provided by the BS EN 13248:2002 standard. The standard outlines the necessary design, manufacturing, and operational standards in order to guarantee the safety of the coffee makers. Additionally, it outlines the testing techniques that must be used to confirm that these requirements have been met.

The specification applies to coffee makers that generate a smooth coffee infusion under steam pressure using a separate heating system. These coffee makers need to be less than 2 liters in volume and have a pressure of over 50 kPa (0.5 bar). The standard takes into account a number of factors, including hygiene, performance, durability, and safety, to make sure the coffee makers adhere to the requirements for residential usage.

The standard also specifies labeling standards and usage and maintenance guidelines for coffee machines in addition to the technical requirements. This makes sure that customers can use and maintain the product properly and are given pertinent information about it.
