CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT INFORMATION

2.2 General (cont.)

Where conflicts exist between instructions and information in this manual and local code or national codes, or regulations, installation and operation shall comply with the codes or regulations in force in the country in which the equipment is installed.

DANGER

Building codes prohibit a fryer with its open tank of hot oil/shortening from being installed beside an open flame of any type, including those of broilers and ranges.

Upon arrival, inspect the fryer carefully for visible or concealed damage. (See Receiving and Unpacking Equipment in Section 2.1.)

CAUTION

Dean appliances equipped with legs are for stationary installations. Appliances fitted with legs must be lifted during movement to avoid damage to the appliance and bodily injury. For moveable installations, optional equipment casters must be used. Questions? Call 1-800-551-8633.

2.3 Product Description

Dean Decathlon Series gas fryers are energy efficient, tube-style, gas-fired units. All units are shipped completely assembled with accessories packed inside the frypot. All units are adjusted, tested and inspected at the factory before shipment. Sizes, weights and input rates of all models are listed in this manual.

WARNING

The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil frying system, particularly the aspects of system operation, oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.

2.4 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 heat the oil more efficiently.
