PROTECTOR® SERIES GAS FRYERS

CHAPTER 5: FILTRATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.

5.1Draining and Manual Filtering

DANGER

Draining and filtering of cooking oil must be accomplished with care to avoid the possibility of a serious burn caused by careless handling. The oil to be filtered is at or near 350°F (177°C). Ensure all hoses are connected properly and drain handles are in their proper position before operating any switches or valves. Wear all appropriate safety equipment when draining and filtering oil.

DANGER

Allow oil to cool to 100°F (38°C) before draining into an appropriate container for disposal.

DANGER

Do not drain more than one frypot at a time into the built-in filtration unit to avoid overflow and spillage of hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.

DANGER

When draining oil into a disposal unit or portable filter unit, do not fill above the maximum fill line located on the container.

Oil must be drained into the filter pan, SDU or another suitable METAL container. (For safe, convenient draining and disposal of used oil or shortening, Frymaster recommends using the Frymaster Shortening Disposal Unit (SDU). The SDU is available through your local distributor.)

1.Turn the fryer power switch to the OFF position.

2.Position a METAL container with a sealable cover under the drainpipe. The METAL container must be able to withstand the heat of the oil and hold hot liquids. If you intend to reuse the oil or shortening, Frymaster recommends that a Frymaster filter cone holder and filter cone be used when a filter machine is not available. If you are using a Frymaster filter cone holder, be sure that the cone holder rests securely on the metal container.

3.Open the drain valve slowly to avoid splattering. If the drain valve becomes clogged with food particles, use the Fryer’s Friend (poker-like tool) to clear the blockage.

Coupled with the innovative oil filtration system, the Protector Series ensures that the oil remains clean, further enhancing food quality and flavor.

Another significant advancement in the Frymaster Protector Series is its improved heating elements. These elements are designed for rapid heat recovery, which means that after food is added to the fryer, the oil temperature returns to cooking levels more quickly, which is vital for high-volume frying operations. The result is reduced cooking times and increased throughput, enabling kitchens to serve more customers efficiently.

Safety is also a primary consideration in the design of the Frymaster Protector Series. It includes several built-in safety features, such as automatic shut-off controls and advanced overheating protection, ensuring that operators can work confidently without fear of accidents. Additionally, the series is equipped with easy-to-read digital displays that provide real-time monitoring of oil temperatures and cooking times, improving both safety and operational precision.

The robust construction of the Frymaster Protector Series is another notable characteristic. Built with high-quality stainless steel, these fryers are designed to withstand the rigors of busy kitchen environments.
