5.2 AUTOMATIC OIL TOP SYSTEM (OPTION)
Pitco offers the “Automatic Oil Level Control” option
Replenishment oil is drawn from a Jug In Box (JIB) located in one of the cabinets in a multiple vat build. Alternately, the JIB can be remotely located within nine feet of the fryer. The system can also accommodate a bulk oil system.
The Oil Level Driver Board (OLDB) works with the Filter Control Board (FCB) to maintain proper cooking oil levels. An optional “Manual Fill Switch” to allow operators to add fresh oil at their discretion can also be supplied.
Fresh oil is added to a low vat by using the same pump that is used for filtering.
Because the pump has multiple purposes (filtering and topping off the vat), the
Filter Control Board (FCB) will prevent the any “top off” event during filtering.
The system’s “Oil Level Drive Board” samples the oil level probe continuously and determines when to add fresh oil to the vat. The “Enable Input” allows a top off event only when it’s appropriate.
There are specific conditions when fresh oil should not be added to the vat:
1)Cook Cycle
2)Heating Cycle
3)Melt Cycle
4)Filtering Cycle
5)Control in the “OFF” state
The “Enable Input” is active only when the cooking control is at cooking temperature and an idle condition. Typically the cooking control displays “READY” or “DROP” when idle. Without the “Enable Input” active, the “Oil Level Drive Board” will not top off the fry vat.
