1.3 Equipment Description

J1C, J1X, and J2X Master Jet Series gas fryers are designed for all-purpose frying applications. They come equipped with thermostat controllers for controlling the temperature of cooking cycles.

J1C Series gas fryers are tabletop fryers designed for limited space and all-purpose frying. J1C frypot capacity is 15-20 pounds.

J1X and J2X Series gas fryers are drop-in units designed for limited space and all-purpose frying. J1X frypot capacity is 15-20 pounds. J2X frypot capacity is 30-40 pounds. The J2X is equipped with a drain safety switch.

All three models are of an open-pot design and have a hand-sized opening into the deep cold zone, which makes cleaning the stainless frypot quick and easy. All fryers are shipped with a package of standard accessories. Each fryer is adjusted, tested, and inspected at the factory before crating for shipment.

Frypots are constructed of welded, heavy-gauge stainless steel. Heating is supplied by a burner assembly having multiple gas jets, which are focused on metal targets located around the lower side of the frypot. The burner assembly can be configured for natural gas, propane, or manufactured gas. The frypot is drained with a manual ball valve.

Master Jet Series Atmospheric fryers are equipped with a thermostat probe for precise temperature control. The probe is located on the centerline of the frypot for rapid response to changes in loads and to provide the most accurate temperature measurement.
