SECTION 1. INTRODUCTION

 

 

1-1. INTRODUCTION

The Henny Penny pressure fryer uses a combination of pressure,

 

heat, and time to produce a quality product. The advantage of this

 

type fryer is the pressure allows the product to be cooked with less

 

heat and less time than the conventional open-type fryers.

 

The Chick-fil-A controls for the Henny Penny Models 500 (elec-

 

tric) and 600 (gas) have many features to allow the Operator to

 

produce consistent, quality products. The controls monitor not

 

only cooking times and temperatures, but also peanut oil condition,

 

product weights, product temperatures, and many other operational

 

variables. The controls may vary the actual peanut oil temperature

 

and cook times, based on changes of the operational variables.

 

The controls also have very extensive self-diagnostic functions

 

which alert the Operator to both component and procedure

 

problems.

Some unique features of the fryer are listed below:

Diagnostic function-provides summary of fryer and Operator performance. See Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section.

Alarms and error messages-provide immediate feedback for Operator error or fryer malfunction. See Warnings and Error Messages Section.

Status Mode-allows the Operator to view basic fryer informa- tion and status. See Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section.

Information Mode-gathers and stores historic information on the fryer and Operator performance, and can be viewed by the Operator. See Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section.

Oil Filter enforcement-prevents the Operator from exceeding approved number of Cook Cycles before filtering the peanut oil. See Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section.

Manual Program Mode-Operator can set time and tempera- ture for nonstandard products. See Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section.

Easy toggle between English and Spanish operation. See Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section.
