FLATBOTTOM SERIES ELECTRIC FRYERS

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

1.1General

Read the instructions in this manual thoroughly before attempting to operate this equipment. This manual covers the Flatbottom Series of electric fryers, including the 1824E family, the 2424E family, and their associated built-in filtration systems.

The Flatbottom Series electric fryers feature easy to clean, open frypots constructed of heavy-gauge welded stainless steel. The model designations indicate the size of the frypot. The 1824 frypot is 18-inches wide by 24-inches long and holds 45 lbs. of cooking oil or shortening. The 2424 frypot is 24-inches wide by 24-inches long and holds 60 lbs. of cooking oil or shortening. A drain with a manually operated valve is located in the right front corner of the frypot.

The frypot is heated by three 6.3 kW elements providing a nominal total wattage of 18.9 kW. Two of the elements are mounted inside the vessel, one on each side, and the third is centered underneath the frypot. Power options include 208V, 240V, or 480V.

Fryer operation is controlled by a standard thermostat control or an optional solid-state controller. The controls, whichever type, are mounted inside the cabinet behind the door on or near the cabinet floor. A main power switch and other optional control switches are mounted on the front panel of the cabinet. The fryers also feature a melt cycle in which the heating elements pulse on and off at a controlled rate. The melt cycle allows solid shortening to be melted without being scorched.

The instant power feature, available only on units with the solid-state control option, bypasses the temperature control for a pre-set period of time to provide maximum heating of the cooking oil or shortening.
