FRYMASTER FPD65 SERIES GAS FRYERS

CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT INFORMATION

2.6 Air Supply and Ventilation

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.

Keep the area around the fryer clear to prevent obstruction of combustion and ventilation airflow as well as for service and maintenance.

A.Do not connect this fryer to an exhaust duct.

B.Correct installation and adjustment will ensure adequate airflow to the fryer system.

C.A commercial, heavy-duty fryer must vent its combustion wastes to the outside of the building. A deep-fat fryer must be installed under a powered exhaust hood, or an exhaust fan must be provided in the wall above the unit, as exhaust gas temperatures are approximately 800-1000°F (427-538°C). Check air movement during installation. Strong exhaust fans in the exhaust hood or in the overall air conditioning system can produce slight air drafts in the room.

D.Do not place the fryer’s flue outlet directly into the plenum of the hood, as it will affect the gas combustion of the fryer.

E.Never use the interior of the fryer cabinet for storage or store items on shelving over or behind the fryer. Exhaust temperatures can exceed 800°F (427°C) and may damage or melt items stored in or near the fryer.

F.Adequate distance must be maintained from the flue outlet of the fryer(s) to the lower edge of the filter bank. Per NFPA Standards No. 96, a minimum of 18-inches (45-cm) should be maintained between the flue(s) and the lower edge of the exhaust hood filter.

G.Filters and drip troughs should be part of any industrial hood, but consult local codes before constructing and installing any hood. The duct system, the exhaust hood and the filter bank must be cleaned on a regular basis and kept free of grease.

2.7Equipment Installed at High Altitudes

A.The fryer input rating (BTU/hr) is for elevations up to 2,000 feet (610-m). For elevations above 2,000 feet (610-m), the rating should be reduced four percent for each additional 1,000 feet (305-m) above sea level.

B.The correct orifices are installed at the factory if operating altitude is known at time of the customer’s order.

FDP65 specifications

The Frymaster FDP65 is a state-of-the-art commercial fryer known for its reliability and efficiency in high-demand cooking environments. Designed to meet the rigorous requirements of restaurants and food service establishments, the FDP65 combines advanced technology with user-friendly features, making it a top choice among chefs and kitchen managers.

One of the key features of the Frymaster FDP65 is its patented "Fast Recovery" system. This technology ensures rapid temperature recovery after food is added, allowing for consistent frying results even during peak cooking times. The ability to maintain optimum temperatures helps improve food quality and decreases cooking times, ultimately enhancing the overall operational efficiency of the kitchen.

The FDP65 employs a durable stainless-steel construction, making it resilient and easy to clean. The fryer's smooth surfaces and rounded edges contribute to its hygienic design, which is crucial in maintaining food safety standards. Additionally, the unit is equipped with heavy-duty, solid-state controls that provide precise temperature management, further enhancing its reliability.

Another remarkable characteristic of the FDP65 is its innovative filtration system. The built-in filtration minimizes oil pollution, maximizing the lifespan of cooking oil, which leads to significant cost savings over time. The automatic filtration system regularly cleans the oil and eliminates food particulates, ensuring that every batch of fried food tastes as good as the first.

The Frymaster FDP65 features a large fry pot capacity, making it suitable for frying large volumes of food. This capability is particularly beneficial for establishments with high customer turnover and those that require fast service, such as quick-service restaurants and cafeterias. The fryer also has a robust heating element that guarantees a quick preheat, reducing waiting times for both customers and kitchen staff.

Safety is another priority in the design of the FDP65. It comes equipped with a temperature limiting device that prevents overheating, as well as a high-limit switch that offers additional protection against potential hazards. Ergonomically designed fry baskets and handles make it more convenient and safer for staff to use, further enhancing the fryer’s appeal.

In summary, the Frymaster FDP65 is an exceptional commercial fryer characterized by its advanced technology, robust construction, and user-friendly features. Its fast recovery system, automatic filtration, and safety mechanisms make it an efficient and reliable choice for any busy kitchen, ensuring that operators can serve high-quality fried foods consistently while managing costs effectively.
