The fryer flue opening must not be placed close to the intake of the exhaust fan, and the fryer must never have its flue extended in a “chimney” fashion. An extended flue will change the combustion characteristics of the fryer, causing longer recovery time. It also frequently causes delayed ignition. To provide the airflow necessary for good combustion and burner operation, the areas surrounding the fryer front, sides, and rear must be kept clear and unobstructed.

DANGER

This appliance must be installed with sufficient ventilation to prevent the occurrence of unacceptable concentrations of substances harmful to the health of personnel in the room in which it is installed.

Fryers must be installed in an area with an adequate air supply and adequate ventilation. Adequate distances must be maintained from the flue outlet of the fryer to the lower edge of the ventilation filter bank. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45º. Place a drip tray beneath the lowest edge of the filter. For U.S. installation, NFPA standard No. 96 states, “A minimum distance of 18 in. (450 mm) should be maintained between the flue outlet and the lower edge of the grease filter.” Frymaster recommends that the minimum distance be 24 in. (600 mm) from the flue outlet to the bottom edge of the filter when the appliance consumes more than 120,000 BTU per hour.

For installations in the United States, information on construction and installation of ventilating hoods can be found in the NFPA standard cited above. A copy of the standard may be obtained from the National Fire Protection Association, Battery March Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

2.1.2 National Code Requirements

The type of gas for which the fryer is equipped is stamped on the data plate attached to the inside of the fryer door. Connect a fryer stamped “NAT” only to natural gas, those stamped “PRO” only to propane gas, and those stamped “MFG” only to manufactured gas.

Installation shall be made with a gas connector that complies with national and local codes, and, where applicable, CE codes. Quick-disconnect devices, if used, shall likewise comply with national, local, and, if applicable, CE codes. In the absence of local codes, installation must conform to the national Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation code, CSA B149.1, as applicable including:

1.The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected form the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

2.The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at trest pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

2.1.3 Electrical Grounding Requirements

All electrically operated appliances must be grounded in accordance with all applicable national and local codes, and, where applicable, CE codes. In the absence of local codes, the appliance must be grounded in accordance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.2, as applicable. All units (cord connected or permanently connected) should be connected to a grounded power supply system. A wiring diagram is located on the inside of the fryer door. Refer to the rating plate on the inside of the fryer door for proper voltages.
