Procedure

QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS ONLY

1Check regulated gas pressure.

Contact the local gas company or a service agency to check the gas pressure out of the fryer’s gas regulator.

For natural gas, the pressure must be 3.0 in. W.C.

(76 mm W.C.) For propane gas, the pressure must be 8.25 in. W.C. (210 mm W.C.)

If the pressure does not meet these standards, ask the service agency or gas company to adjust the pressure to meet the standard.

2Clean and Replace gas valve vent tube.

Clean and replace the gas valve vent tube. Follow the cleaning procedure in the service manual.

3Clean combustion air blower.

Clean the combustion air blowers. Follow the cleaning procedure in the service manual.

4Check fryer recovery time.

Choose a vat on the fryer. Check the fryer’s most re- cent recovery time for that vat, using the procedure in FR2 M1. The most recent recovery time should be less than 145 seconds.

If the fryer’s recovery time is less than 145 seconds, the procedure is complete for this vat. Go to step 7.

5Check combustion.

If the fryer’s recovery time is less than 145 seconds, skip this step.

Connect the multimeter in series with the white flame sensor wire on the igniter. Allow the burner to operate for at least one minute after the melt cycle is com- pleted. After 1 minute, the reading on the multimeter should between 2.5 and 3.5 microamps. Any other reading is not acceptable.

After 90 seconds of continuous operation, check the color of the burner. The burner should glow bright or- ange-red. Use the Burner Color Comparison Chart inside the door of the fryer to identify the correct color. A blue flame or dark spots on the burner face are not acceptable.
