3717-1-04.1 Equipment, utensils, and linens: design and construction. |
(Y)Temperature measuring devices. |
(1) In a mechanically refrigerated or hot food storage unit, the sensor of a temperature measuring device shall |
be located to measure the air temperature or a simulated product temperature in the warmest part of a |
mechanically refrigerated unit and in the coolest part of a hot food storage unit. |
(2) Cold or hot holding equipment used for time/temperature controlled for safety food shall be designed to |
include and shall be equipped with at least one integral or permanently affixed temperature measuring device |
that is located to allow easy viewing of the device's temperature display. This requirement does not apply to |
equipment for which the placement of a temperature measuring device is not a practical means for measuring the |
ambient air temperature surrounding the food because of the design, type, and use of the equipment, such as |
calrod units, heat lamps, cold plates, bainmaries, steam tables, insulated food transport containers, and salad |
bars. |
(3) Temperature measuring devices shall be designed to be easily readable. |
(4) Water temperature measuring devices on warewashing machines and food temperature measuring devices shall |
have a numerical scale, printed record, or digital readout in increments no greater than two degrees Fahrenheit |
or one degree Celsius in the intended range of use. |
