ULTIMATE ELECTRIC SERIES FRYERS

CHAPTER 1: SERVICE PROCEDURES

1.10 Built-in Filter System Service Procedures (cont.)

If the pump motor overheats, a circuit breaker will trip and the motor will not start until the breaker is reset. If the pump motor does not start, press the white reset button located under the component box, inside the cabinet.

If the pump starts after resetting the breaker, then something is causing the motor to overheat. A major cause of overheating is when several frypots are filtered sequentially, thus overheating the pump and motor. Allow the pump motor to cool at least 30 minutes before resuming operation, and allow time for the motor to cool between sequential frypot filtering.

Pump overheating can be caused by:

•Solidified shortening in the pan or filter lines, or

•Attempting to filter unheated oil or shortening.

Cold oil and shortening are more viscous, causing the pump motor to load up and overheat. Always filter with the oil or shortening at operating temperature [~350°F (177°C)].

If the motor runs but the pump does not, there is a blockage in the pump. Incorrectly sized or installed paper/pads will allow food particles and sediment to pass through the filter pan and into the pump. When sediment enters the pump, the gears bind, causing the motor to overload, again tripping the thermal overload. Shortening that has solidified in the pump will also cause it to seize, with the same result.

A pump seized by debris or hard shortening must be disassembled, cleaned, and then reassembled before continuing use. Use the following procedure:

1.Disconnect power to the filter system.

2.Remove the front cover of the pump to access the gears inside (see illustration below- 8-GPM pump shown), if the pump is accessible while still inside the cabinet.

This system not only enhances the quality of fried products but also optimizes oil usage, reducing costs in the long run.

Another hallmark of the Frymaster Ultimate Electric Series is its rapid recovery system. This innovation ensures that oil heats back up quickly after product is added, maintaining optimal frying conditions and improving overall productivity. For establishments that see high volumes of orders, this feature can significantly reduce wait times for customers, allowing for quicker service without compromising food quality.

Safety is also a primary concern in commercial kitchens, and the Ultimate Electric Series addresses this with various built-in safeguards. These include automatic shut-off functions, which help prevent overheating and potential fire hazards. Additionally, the design features cool-to-the-touch areas to reduce the risk of burns, making it user-friendly in high-paced environments.

The Frymaster Ultimate Electric Series is designed for versatility. It can handle a wide range of items, from French fries and chicken to vegetables and seafood, adapting to varying customer demands. The fryers come with multiple basket configurations, allowing for frying different products simultaneously without cross-contaminating flavors, optimizing menu offerings.
