Overview
oSIST prEN 203-2-7:2016 is a European standard developed by the Slovenian Institute for Standardization (SIST). This standard provides comprehensive requirements and test methods for gas heated catering equipment, with a specific focus on salamanders and rotisseries. The standard supplements the general principles established in EN 203-1:2014 by detailing unique safety, constructional, and performance characteristics pertinent to these appliances used in commercial and professional kitchens.
By offering harmonized criteria, this standard supports manufacturers, importers, and users in complying with EU safety directives, ensuring appliances are fit for safe use, properly marked, and accompanied by clear instructions. It is crucial for anyone involved in the design, production, sale, or operation of gas heated salamanders and rotisseries.
Key Topics
Safety & Design Requirements
- Adequate measures are mandated for reducing risks of fire and burns associated with high temperatures and moving mechanical components.
- Specific construction rules include ensuring accessibility for cleaning, safe removal of grease and juices, spillover prevention, and mechanical stability of components such as grill pans and spits.
Performance Testing
- Appliances undergo specific tests for soundness, stability, and operational safety. Temperatures in receptacles (for juices/fats) are controlled to minimize fire risks.
- Devices must have appropriate flame cutoffs and combustion controls to maintain safety during use and in the event of faults.
Marking and Instructions
- Equipment must be clearly and indelibly marked, including warnings about hot surfaces and correct load limits for accessories.
- Detailed instructions for installation, operation, and routine maintenance are required, emphasizing cleaning procedures and minimum required clearances from combustible materials.
Terminology
- Definitions clarify the characteristics of salamanders (designed primarily for grilling by radiant heat) and rotisseries (designed primarily for roasting via slow rotation in front of a heat source).
Applications
This standard is applicable to:
- Manufacturers and importers of gas heated salamanders and rotisseries, who need to ensure their products conform to essential EU directives for gas appliances.
- Professional kitchens, restaurants, hotels, and catering establishments using these appliances for grilling, roasting, and preparing foods efficiently and safely.
- Inspection and certification bodies that assess conformity of commercial kitchen equipment to European requirements.
Following oSIST prEN 203-2-7:2016 helps reduce risks such as burns, fires, mechanical injuries, and food contamination. Adhering to standardized marking and operating instructions also supports consistent and safe use by kitchen staff, maintenance teams, and safety inspectors.
Related Standards
- EN 203-1:2014 – Gas heated catering equipment – Part 1: General safety rules. Forms the foundation for specific requirements described in this standard.
- ISO 7010 – Standardized symbols for safety signage, referenced for appliance markings (e.g., hot surface warning).
- EU Directive 2009/142/EC – The Gas Appliances Directive, whose essential safety requirements are covered in this standard.
Harmonization with related standards makes oSIST prEN 203-2-7:2016 an integral component of gas appliance safety in commercial food service across Europe, supporting regulatory compliance, product quality, and end-user protection.

kitchen appliances using gaseous fuels”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 203-2-7:2014.
This standard is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 203-1, Gas heated catering equipment —
Part 1: General safety rules.
This sub-part of Part 2 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses of EN 203-1, so as to convert
it into the European Standard for salamanders and rotisseries using gaseous fuels.
Where a particular subclause of EN 203-1 is not mentioned in this sub-part of Part 2, that subclause
applies as far as is reasonable. Where this European Standard states “addition”, “modification” or
“replacement”, the relevant text of EN 203-1 is to be adapted accordingly.
Subclauses and figures which are additional to those in EN 203-1 are numbered starting with 101.
The main changes compared to the former version are the update to the reference to EN 203-1:2014.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
