4. THERMOSTAT CALIBRATION

Checking Thermostat Calibration:

The fryer thermostat is carefully calibrated at the factory so that dial settings match actual frying compound temperatures. Field re-calibration is seldom necessary unless the unit has been mishandled in transit or abused. Re-calibration should not be resorted to unless considerable experience with cooking results definitely proves that the control is not maintaining the temperature to which the dial is set.

1.To check compound frying temperatures when re-calibrating, use a precision test instrument, or a good grade mercury thermometer. Fill the tank half way between the MAX and MIN marks on the tank.

2.Frying compound temperature should be checked at the center of the tank, approximately 1” to 1 1/2” below surface of frying compound.

3.Turn the dial of the thermostat being checked to the 350°F mark.

4.Allow temperature to stabilize, or until the thermostat cycles to “OFF” three times after starting with cold frying compound. With power “ON”, read highest and lowest frying compound temperature, as thermostat cycles through at least two cycles. Average the reading.

5.Thermostat should be re-calibrated if temperature reading is not within 10 degrees of the control knob setting (350°F +/- 15°F). If re-calibration is required, continue with steps 6, 7, 8 and 9.

6.Remove control knob by grasping outer edge and pulling straight out, without twisting or turning.

7.Hold thermostat dial shaft “B” (Figure 1) stationary with pliers, and with a screwdriver, turn screw “A” clockwise to obtain a lower temperature; or counter-clockwise for higher temperature. Each ¼ turn (90° rotation) of screw “A” represents 18°F.

8.Replace thermostat control knob.

9.Recheck thermostat as in Steps 4 and 5 above. If the fat temperature is not within 20 degrees of dial setting (350°F +/- 20°F), it means that the sensing element is inoperative and the thermostatic control should be replaced.

EF-15N, EF-30NT, EF-30NTC specifications

The APW Wyott EF-30NT, EF-30NTC, and EF-15N are essential electric countertop fryers that cater to the needs of busy kitchens and food service operations. These fryer models are designed to streamline cooking processes while ensuring high performance, reliability, and efficiency.

The EF-30NT and EF-30NTC models are equipped with dual fry tanks, each offering a generous capacity that allows chefs to fry multiple batches simultaneously. This feature is particularly beneficial in fast-paced environments, where time is of the essence. Both models utilize a powerful heating element that can reach high temperatures quickly, ensuring that food is cooked evenly and to perfection. The EF-30NTC model incorporates a convenient thermostat control that allows users to adjust the temperature easily, ensuring consistency across various menu items.

The EF-15N, while slightly smaller in capacity, maintains the same high-quality performance and durability that APW Wyott is known for. It’s designed for smaller kitchens or food trucks where space is limited, yet it still boasts an impressive frying output. All three models feature stainless steel construction, which not only contributes to their durability but also facilitates easy cleaning and maintenance. The stainless steel surface resists tarnishing and is built to withstand the rigors of a commercial kitchen.

One of the standout technologies of the EF series is the cool zone feature integrated into the fry tanks. This innovative design allows excess food particles to settle away from the heating element, reducing the likelihood of burnt residues and improving the overall oil life. This results in cleaner oil, which translates to better-tasting food and reduced oil costs over time.

Safety is a key consideration in the design of these fryers. They come equipped with safety features such as an automatic shut-off function in case of overheating and a built-in grease drain for easy oil disposal. These enhancements not only make the cooking process safer but also optimize operational efficiency.

In summary, the APW Wyott EF-30NT, EF-30NTC, and EF-15N are versatile, efficient, and robust electric fryers designed to meet the demands of modern food service operations. Their innovative features and high-quality construction make them an excellent investment for any kitchen looking to elevate their frying capabilities.
