Model OFE- 290
gas control valve an automatic dual controller that controls gas to both pilot lights and gas
(gas fryers only) pressure to burners on fryers; if either pilot light goes out, the controller shuts
off the gas to the other pilot light
gas valve knob the knob that opens and closes the gas control valve
(gas fryers only)
gas pressure regulator a device located on the gas control valve that regulates the gas
pressure; the
(gas fryers only) pressure specifications are preset at the factory
heat indicator the light that illuminates when the shortening is being heated; the light goes off
when the preset shortening temperature has been achieved
heating elements the coils located inside the frypot on electric fryers that heat the shortening
high limit a temperature control that opens and shuts off the heat to the frypot if it senses
shortening temperature in excess of 420°F (212°C)
ignition modules two modules that send electrical energy to the spark igniters that ignite the pilot
lights on gas fryers
L-shaped brush a brush included with the fryer that is used to clean around the burner tubes
and heating elements
landing table another name for a dumping table (see dumping table)
level indicator lines the lines marked on the interior real wall of the frypot that show the proper
shortening level (also referred to as fill lines)
lid assembly an assembly comprised of lid, lid handle, and lid latch which raises and lowers
product into shortening on eight head fryers
lid handle a handle that is attached to the lid and is used to lower the lid into contact with
the frypot; the handle is then pulled forward and pushed down to lock the lid in
place (see lid latch)
lid latch a mechanical catch on the front of the fryer lid that engages a bracket located on
the front of the frypot; the latch holds the lid down
manual shutoff valve a valve located between the fryer and the wall that shuts off the flow of gas from
(gas fryers only) the supply line; this is not the main shutoff valve for the store
melt cycle a heat mode that cycles on and off to slowly melt the shortening when the
power switch is on and the shortening temperature is below a certain
temperature; the melt cycle prevents scorching of the shortening
pilot orifice a controlled opening for the pilot light located on the burner assembly
(gas fryers only)
pilot light a small flame that remains burning even when the fryer is not in use; the flame
(gas fryers only) ignites the gas when the fryer is turned on
