Term Term Definition Options Unit of Measure
Range oven An oven base built into a range. Range ovens may use either standard or convection technologies to cook food. View None
Rapid cook oven An oven that utilizes one or more non-traditional heat transfer technologies to cook food product significantly faster than would be possible using conventional (e.g., convection, conduction, radiant) heat transfer technologies. Heat transfer technologies that may be employed include microwave, quartz halogen, and high-velocity or impingement convection. View None
RAS features An acronym for reliability, availability, and serviceability features. RAS is sometimes expanded to RASM, which adds ÒManageabilityÓ criteria. The three primary components of RAS as related to a computer server. View None
Rear projection A television product in which the display device is a projector that focuses images onto a screen located inside the TV enclosure. View None
Refrigerant return line diameter Diameter of the return line of the refrigerant coming back from refrigerated cases. View None
Refrigerated vending machine A vending machine that requires refrigeration capabilities. View None
Refrigeration Type

Refrigeration equipment includes a refrigerator or freezer used for storing food products at specified temperatures, with the condensing unit and compressor built into the cabinet, and designed for use by commercial or institutional premises, other than laboratory settings. These units may be vertical or chest configurations and may contain a worktop surface.

View None
Refrigerator A cabinet designed for the refrigerated storage of food, designed to be capable of achieving temperatures above 32 ¡F (0 ¡C) and below 39 ¡F (3.9 ¡C). A refrigerator may include a compartment for the freezing and storage of food at temperatures below 32 ¡F (0 ¡C), but does not provide a separate low temperature compartment designed for the freezing and storage of food at temperatures below 8 ¡F (-13.3 ¡C), with the condensing unit and compressor built into the cabinet. View None
Remote condensing unit A Remote condensing unit (RCU) or split system unit is a model in which the ice-making mechanism and condenser or condensing unit are in separate sections. View None
Resilient server A computer server designed with extensive Reliability, Availability, Serviceability (RAS) and scalability features integrated in the microarchitecture of the system, CPU and chipset. For purposes of ENERGY STAR qualification under this specification, a Resilient Server shall have the characteristics as described in Appendix B of this specification. View None
Reverse cycle defrosting an evaporator by reversing its function with that of the condenser. View None
Revised application required Organization has required a revised application. View None
Rotary UPS UPS where one or more electrical rotating machines provide the output voltage. May include two types: 1) Rotary UPS (RUPS) without Diesel which is a rotary UPS that does not contain an integral diesel engine to supply power to the load during an input power failure, and 2) Diesel-coupled rotary UPS (DRUPS), which is a rotary UPS that contains an integral diesel engine that may be used to supply power to the load during an input power failure. View None
Rotary UPS without diesel A Rotary UPS is where one or more electrical rotating machines provide the output voltage. A rotary UPS that does not contain an integral diesel engine to supply power to the load during an input power failure. View None
Rotisserie oven An oven fitted with a mechanism to move or turn food past a fixed heat source while the food is slowly being cooked on all sides. View None
Router A network device that determines the optimal path along which network traffic should be forwarded as its primary function. Routers forward packets from one network to another based on network layer information. Devices fitting this definition may provide both Router functionality and wireless network capability. View None
Router The capability to determine the optimal path along which network traffic should be forwarded. Routers forward packets from one network to another based on network layer information. Router functionality includes Access Point functionality. View None
Satellite A STB or DVG that can receive and decode video content as delivered from a MVPD satellite network. View None
Scanner Converts paper originals into electronic images that can be stored, edited, converted, or transmitted, primarily in a personal computing environment. View None
Self contained unit Self-Contained (SCU): A model in which the ice-making mechanism and storage compartment are in an integral cabinet. View None
Server appliance A computer server that is bundled with a pre-installed OS and application software that is used to perform a dedicated function or set of tightly coupled functions. Server appliances deliver services through one or more networks (e.g., IP or SAN), and are typically managed through a web or command line interface. Server appliance hardware and software configurations are customized by the vendor to perform a specific task (e.g., name services, firewall services, authentication services, encryption services, and voice-over-IP (VoIP) services), and are not intended to execute user-supplied software. View None
Server processor utilization The ratio of processor computing activity to full-load processor computing activity at a specified voltage and frequency, measured instantaneously or with a short term average of use over a set of active and/or idle cycles. View None
Set Top Box Type

A Set-top Box (STB) is a device combining hardware components with software programming designed for the primary purpose of receiving television and related services from terrestrial, cable, satellite, broadband, or local networks and providing video output using at least one direct video connection.

View None
Side by side The side-by-side door configuration is a cabinet that is divided in half lengthwise. These refrigerators have two doors, which swing out from the middle so one door stays closed while the other door is open and vice versa. View None
Signage display An electronic device typically with a diagonal screen size greater than 12 inches and a pixel density less than or equal to 5,000 pixels/in2. It is typically marketed as commercial signage for use in areas where it is intended to be viewed by multiple people in non-desk based environments, such as retail or department stores, restaurants, museums, hotels, outdoor venues, airports, conference rooms or classrooms.
