CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT INFORMATION

2.6 Air Supply and Ventilation

DANGER

Do not connect this appliance to the gas supply before reviewing each step in this

section.

A.Keep the area around the fryer clear to prevent obstruction of combustion and ventilation airflow and to allow for service and maintenance. Always adhere to the following:

1.Do not connect this fryer to an exhaust duct.

2.Follow installation and adjustment procedure to ensure adequate airflow to the fryer system.

3.A heavy-duty, commercial fryer’s combustion wastes must vent to the outside of the building. A deep-fat fryer must be installed under a powered exhaust hood, or an exhaust fan must be provided in the wall above the unit. Exhaust gas temperatures are approximately 800-1000°F (427-538°C). Check air movement during installation. Strong exhaust fans in the exhaust hood or in the overall air conditioning system can produce slight air drafts in the room and cause erratic burner flames or improper fryer operation.

4.Do not place the fryer’s flue outlet directly into the plenum of the hood, as it will affect the gas combustion of the fryer.

5.Never use the interior of the fryer cabinet for storage or store items on shelving over or behind the fryer. Exhaust temperatures can exceed 800°F (427ºC) and may damage or melt items stored in or near the fryer.

6.Adequate distance must be maintained from the flue outlet of the fryer(s) to the lower edge of the filter bank. Per NFPA Standards No. 96, a minimum of 18-inches (45-cm) should be maintained between the flue(s) and the lower edge of the exhaust hood filter.

7.Filters and drip troughs should be part of an industrial hood, but consult local codes before constructing and installing any hood. The duct system, the exhaust hood, and the filter bank must be cleaned on a regular basis and kept free of grease.

2.7Equipment Installed at High Altitudes

A.The fryer input rating [BTU/hr (kW/hr)] is for elevations up to 2,000 feet (610 m). For elevations above 2,000 feet (610 m), the rating should be reduced 4% for each additional 1,000 feet (305 m) above sea level.

B.The correct orifices are installed at the factory if operating altitude is known at time of the customer’s order.
