SECTION 1. INTRODUCTION

 

 

1-1. PRESSURE FRYER

The Henny Penny pressure fryer is a basic unit of food pro-

 

cessing equipment which is used only in institutional and commercial

 

food service operations.

P-H-T

A combination of pressure, heat, and time is automatically

 

controlled to produce the optimum in a tasty, appealing

 

product.

Pressure

Pressure is basic to this method of food preparation. The pres-

 

sure is developed from the natural moisture of the food. The

 

patented lid traps this moisture and uses it as steam. Because

 

the steam builds rapidly, a greater part of the natural juices

 

are retained within the food. An operation valve vents excess

 

steam from the pot and maintains constant live steam

 

pressure.

Heat

Heat generated is another important factor of the pressure fryer.

 

Energy savings is realized due to the unit’s short frying time,

 

low temperature, and heat retention of the stainless steel

 

frypot.

Time

Time is important because the shorter time involved in frying

 

foods results in additional economies for the user. Foods are

 

table ready in less time than it would take to fry them in a con-

 

ventional open-type fryer.

 

As of August 16, 2005, the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equip-

 

ment directive went into effect for the European Union. Our
