1.5.1 Typical Problems

You are likely to encounter problems in these broad categories:

1.

Pilot Failure

6.

Computer Malfunction

2.

Ignition Failure

7.

Filtration Malfunction

3.

Improper Burner Function

8.

Leakage

4.

Improper Temperature Control

9.

Basket Lift Malfunction

5.

Gas Valve Malfunction

 

 

Read the following sections to learn more about each category. A series of troubleshooting guides is also included at the end of the chapter to assist in identifying some of the more common problems. In addition, Section 1.5.2 will guide technicians through interpretation of digital controller lights, helpful in diagnosing problems.

Pilot Failure

There are two types of pilot failure: no pilot flame and unreliable pilot flame.

No pilot flame:

Unreliable pilot flame:

Insufficient gas supply

• Open or grounded high limit

Clogged pilot orifice

• Loose or corroded wire connections

• Air in gas lines (usually in new installations).

Low or no voltage out of thermopile

 

 

Bad gas valve.

Ignition Failure

Ignition failure occurs when the gas valve no longer receives power, the gas supply stops, or the pilot flame goes out. Solid-state controllers indicate ignition failure by illuminating the heat light and trouble light simultaneously. Computers and digital timers will read HELP to indicate ignition failure. There are three primary areas of focus in diagnosing and correcting ignition failure:

1.The gas and electrical power supplies

2.The electronic circuits

3.The gas valve.

The Gas and Electrical Power Supplies

The main indicators that the gas or electrical power supply is the cause of ignition failure are as follows: an entire battery of fryers fails to light, and/or there are no indicator lights illuminated on the fryer experiencing ignition failure. Verify that the quick disconnect hose is properly connected, the fryer is plugged in, the main gas supply valve is open, and the circuit breaker for the fryer electrical supply is not tripped.

45, 35 specifications

The Frymaster 35 and 45 series fryers are well-known in the catering industry for their reliability, efficiency, and advanced cooking technologies. These models are designed to cater to medium to high-volume establishments, providing users with exceptional performance and ease of use.

One of the main features of the Frymaster 35 and 45 series is their impressive fry capacity. The 35 model can handle around 35 pounds of oil, while the 45 model accommodates up to 45 pounds. This increased oil capacity means that both fryers can fry larger batches of food more efficiently, allowing for quicker service times in busy kitchens.

Another key characteristic is the high-performance heating elements. The Frymaster series utilizes V-shaped heat exchangers, which deliver rapid recovery times and consistent cooking temperatures. This technology enables the fryers to maintain optimal heat levels even during heavy usage, ensuring that food is cooked evenly and thoroughly.

The Frymaster 35 and 45 also feature built-in filtration systems. This technology helps in prolonging the life of the oil by filtering out food particles and impurities, which not only enhances the taste of the fried food but also reduces operational costs. The automatic filtration system can be programmed to run on a cycle to ensure that oil quality remains high without requiring constant manual intervention.

In terms of user-friendly design, both models are equipped with digital temperature controls, which allow chefs to precisely set and maintain frying temperatures. The intuitive control panel simplifies operation, while the integrated safety features, such as high-limit temperature controls, help prevent overheating and accidents in the kitchen.

Durability is another hallmark of the Frymaster series. Constructed from stainless steel, these fryers are built to withstand the rigors of commercial kitchens while resisting corrosion and wear. Additionally, Frymaster offers a range of accessories and options, such as baskets and lids, to enhance the functionality and versatility of these fryers.

In summary, the Frymaster 35 and 45 series fryers are top-tier options for commercial food establishments, combining substantial fry capacity, advanced heating technology, built-in oil filtration, and user-friendly controls. Their robust design and efficiency make them ideal for any kitchen looking to deliver high-quality fried foods consistently.
