1.1.3 Controller Options

Performance Pro gas fryers may be equipped with thermostat controls, analog controllers, digital controllers, basket lift timers, or Computer Magic computers. In fryers equipped with thermostat control panels, the fryer and melt cycle are turned on and off using rocker switches and the temperature is set by a knob connected directly to the frypot-mounted thermostat. These units have no interface board. When the melt cycle switch is placed in the ON position, the fryer stays in the melt cycle mode until the switch is manually placed in the OFF position, even if the oil is at setpoint temperature. In units equipped with thermostat access doors, the temperature control knob is located behind the hinged front panel. Service procedures for this type of thermostat are slightly different from units with other thermostat controls.

Fryers equipped with other types of controllers have an interface board located in the component shield behind the control panel.

1.1.4 Thermostats and Temperature Probes

Performance Pro gas fryers may have different kinds of thermostats depending on their configuration. Fryers equipped with thermostat controls have an adjustable controlling thermostat.Adjust the temperature at which the thermostat opens and closes by turning the attached knob. The Fenwal controlling thermostat used in these fryers is sensitive to 1° changes in temperature.

Fryers equipped with other types of controls have a temperature probe. In these units, the probe resistance varies directly with the temperature. As the temperature rises, so does the amount of resistance at a rate of approximately 2 ohms for every 1° (F or C) of temperature (see Probe Resistance Chart, Section 1.6). Circuitry in the controller monitors the probe resistance and controls burner firing when the resistance exceeds or falls below programmed temperatures (i.e., setpoint). To program temperatures into the fryer, use the keypad on the face of the controller. When testing temperature probes, unplug the 15-pin wiring harness from the controller; otherwise, the reading may be incorrect due to extra resistance.

All open burner fryers are equipped with a high-limit thermostat. If the fryer fails to properly control oil temperature, the high-limit thermostat prevents the fryer from overheating to flash point. The high-limit thermostat acts as a normally closed power switch that opens when exposed to temperatures between 425°F to 450°F (218°C to 232°C). It will automatically reset when the oil temperature drops below 350°F (177°C).

1.2 Moving the Fryer for Servicing

If it is necessary to move the fryer before servicing, complete the following actions:

1.Drain the frypot.

2.Turn off the gas supply to the unit. Unplug any power cords. Disconnect the unit from the gas supply.

3.Remove attached restraining devices, including chain restraints and anchor straps.

4.Relocate the fryer to an appropriate area for servicing.

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.
