FRYMASTER FPD65 SERIES GAS FRYERS CHAPTER 5: FILTRATION OPERATION

5.4.1 Filter Operation (cont.)

14.OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT: Drain-flushes are included on 5-battery and larger Frymaster FPD65 Series fryers. After filtering frypot farthest from the filter system for 10 minutes, close the oil return valve to stop the filtering process. Do not refill the frypot. Close the drain valve (red handle) on the frypot being filtered. Ensure all other valves (red and yellow handles) are closed. Pull the blue handle to open the flush valve (6-battery systems have two). After the drain line is clear of sediment (approximately 2 minutes), push the blue handle to close flush valve. Open the oil-return valve (yellow handle) to refill the frypot.

15.OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT: Shortening

Disposal: Follow store procedures when disposing of spent shortening. Ensure the Shortening Disposal System is properly connected and working properly before proceeding. Turn the blue handle on the wand/dispose valve to "DISPOSE" to start the disposal process. Turn the blue handle to "OFF" when the disposal process for that frypot is complete.

DANGER

The crumb tray in fryers equipped with a filter system must be emptied into a fireproof container at the end of frying operations each day. Some food particles can spontaneously combust if left soaking in certain shortening material.

WARNING

Do not bang fry baskets or other utensils on the fryer’s joiner strip. The strip is present to seal the joint between the frypots. Banging fry baskets on the strip to dislodge shortening will distort the strip, adversely affecting its fit. It is designed for a tight fit and should only be removed for cleaning.

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.

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.
