SPECIFICATION FOR
DOMESTIC ELECTRIC FOOD-MIXERS
( LIQUIDIZERS AND GRINDERS )
( First Revision)
0. FOREWORC
0.1 This Indian Standard ( First Revision ) was adopted by the Indian
Standards Institution on 29 January 1980, after the draft finalized by the
Electrical Appliances Sectional Committee had been approved by the
Electrotechnical Division Council.
0.2 This standard was originally published in 1967. This revision has
been carried out to:
a) include the experience gained in the field since publication of
the earlier version,
b) align with the latest cievelopments at the international level,
and
c) align with IS : 302-1979*.
0.3 This standard covers general and safety requirements of domestic
electric food-mixers used for mixing liquids, making slurries or pulps of
food and for pulverizing dry food stuffs. Determinaion of performance
of food-mixers is also a very important aspect for evaluating the quality
of food-mixers. This necessitates conducting some actual operational
tests for which the food-mixers are designed.
0.4 ‘While preparing this standard assistance has been derived from the
following publications:
IEC Pub 335-14 ( 1973) Safety of household and similar electrical
~appliatices: Particular requirements for electric kitchen
machines. International Electrotechnical Commission.
CEE Pub 10 Part 11 Section G/H ( 1970 ) Particular specification
for kitchen machines. International Commission on Rules for
Approval of Electrical Equipment.

together with certain accessories are also~covered by this standard as far
as it applies.
2. TERMINOLOGY
2.0 For the purpose of this standard, the followmg definitions, in addition
to the relevant definitions given in IS : 302-1979* shall apply

2.4 Normal Load - Denotes the load obtained when the appliance is
operated under the load indicated in the instructions booklet in terms of
recipes ( can be different for grinder and liquidize: ) or the load
necessary to attain the rated input (~including the tolerances ) at rated
voltage in case the actual load in-terms of recipes is not indicated by the
manufacturer in the instructions booklet.
NOTE - In case the input. differs with various kinds of recipc.s indicated in the
instructions~booklet, the normal load shall correspond to the highest input.
30 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
3.2 The external finish used on metal components shall be of hear and
moisture resisting nature and shall not be adversely affected by variations
in temperature occuring under normal operating conditions or during the
endurance test. The external finish of the body oE the food-mixer shall

7.6 The appliance may also be marked with the ISI Certificatton Mark.
NOTE - The use of the PSI Certification Mark is governed by the provisions 01
the Indian Standards 1nsti:ution ( Certification Marks) Act and the Rules and
Regulations made thereunder. The IS1 Mark on products covered by an Indian
Standard conveys the assurance that they have been produced to comply with the
reqtiirements of that standard under a well-defined system of inspection, testing
and quality control which is devised and supervised by ISI and operated by the
producer. ISI marked products are also continuously checked by ISI for conformitv
10 that standard as a further safeguard. Details of conditions under which a
licence for the use of the IS1 Certification Mark may by granted to manufacturers
or processors, may be obtained from the Indian Standards Institution.

10. INPUT
10.1 The input of the toad-mixer shall be measured with the normal load
as indicated in the instruc&ons booklet by the manufacturer. For the
purpose of this test, the normal load shall preferably be in terms of
weight/volume of the food required for operational tests indicated in 34.
The method of preparation of the food and the operating time shall
also be as indicated by the manufacturer. If ,the appliance is either a
simple mixer or liquidizer, the input shall be measured for the
corresponding operation only. If the input varies considerably during the t

34.3 Whisking Egg &hitts - Fresh eggs shall be used for this test.
The whites shall be carefully separated and used at once. The weight in
grams of the egg whites used in a test shall be 20 percent of the rated
capacity of the liquidizer bowl in millilitres. The egg whites shall be

34.4 ILBiI Batter - The general procedure for preparing the ZDLZ
batter is to take decuticled black gram ( URAD DAL ) and’parboiled rice
in the proportions 1 : 2 by mass, soak them separately in the required
quantity of water for 12 hours and then to grind them separately before
mixing ‘them together. The black gram is ground to a smooth and frothy
consistency, and the rice is ground to a fine semolina in water.
For the purpose of this test the solid ingredients shall Abe taken in
the weights specified below for different sizes of liquidizer bowls and
soaked in the quantity of water shown against each mass of solid. The
soaked solid with the unabsorbed water shall then be transferred to the
bowl and ground. Excess water to the extent of 20 percent can be added
as and when needed for achieving smooth grinding results during grinding.
