Sensitivity and Recovery

Sensitivity—or “stretch time”—is a programmable feature, patented by Frymaster, which increases or decreases the cook time countdown based on variation in the oil temperature from the setpoint. The sensitivity for each product button has ten settings, 0-9. Setting sensitivity to “0” will disable the feature completely, while a setting of “9” will provide the highest sensitivity or most change. The correct sensitivity for any product is based on the type of product, its density, the setpoint temperature, and the customer’s own requirements. A generic sensitivity chart is located on Page 1-5 of the Frymaster Fryer Controllers manual (P/N 819-5916).

Recovery—or “rate of rise”— is a method of measuring a fryer’s performance. It is the time required for the fryer to increase the oil temperature from 275°F to 325°F (135°C to 163°C). This range is the standard since ambient kitchen temperatures can affect the test if lower ranges are used. The Computer Magic computer controller performs the recovery test each day as the fryer heats-up. An operator can view the results of the test any time the fryer is above 325°F (163°C) by pressing the button and entering the code 1652. The test results display in the computer’s LED panel in minutes and seconds. The acceptable recovery time is 2:30 or less. Extended recovery is a sign that the fryer is not being regularly maintained or it is in need of servicing. The recovery time lengthens as fryer health declines. This is a useful tool for gauging the condition of the fryer and should be checked regularly.

Common Computer Complaints

Most problems with Computer Magic controllers stem from programming issues. There are four common complaints.

1.Fryer constantly displays HI.

Cause: Incorrect, low, or missing setpoint.

Fix: Press 1650, enter the correct setpoint using the keypad, then press to lock-in the new setpoint.

2.Fryer constantly displays temperature.

Cause: The computer has been programmed to constantly display the temperature.

Fix: Press 165L.

3.Fryer displays temperature in Celsius.

Cause: The computer has been programmed to display in Celsius rather than Fahrenheit.

Fix: Press 1658.

4.Computer times down too slowly or too quickly.

Cause: The computer is compensating for oil temperature via the sensitivity setting.

Fix: Reprogram the sensitivity setting for each product by following the programming instructions in the Installation and Operation manual or the Frymaster Fryers Controllers manual (P/N 819-5916).

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.
