Y/KSCF/C/HC18G HIGH EFFICIENCY COOL ZONE SERIES GAS FRYERS

CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT INFORMATION

2.3 Principles of Operation

The incoming gas flows through orifices and is mixed with air in the burners to create the correct ratio for proper combustion. The mixture is ignited at the front end of each heat tube by the pilot light. Internal diffusers slow the flame as it goes through the burner tube. This slow, turbulent flame increases heat transfer to the walls of the tubes to heating the oil more efficiently.

2.4 Rating Plate

This is attached to the inside of the front door panel. Information provided includes the model and serial number of the fryer, BTU/hr (kW/hr) input of the burners, outlet gas pressure in inches W.C. (mbars), and whether the unit has natural (G20/25) or propane (G31) gas orifices.

2.5 Pre-Installation

DANGER

This appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection against electrical shock and must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut, remove, or otherwise bypass the grounding prong on this plug.

A.General: Only licensed personnel should install any gas-fired equipment.

1.A manual gas shut-off valve must be installed in the gas supply line ahead of the fryers for safety and ease of future service.

2.The Frymaster Y/KSCF/C/HC18G gas fryers require 120 volts (AC) 60-cycle electrical service for U.S./Canada/Mexico installations. Fryers are equipped with a 16-3 SJT grounded flexible power cord for a direct connection to the power supply. Amperage draw for each unit depends on the accessories supplied with the unit. See detailed instructions packaged with the fryer line-up.

DANGER

No structural material on the fryer should be altered or removed to accommodate placement of the fryer under a hood. Questions? Call the Frymaster Service Hotline at 1-800-551-8633.
