GR SERIES GAS FRYERS - GENERAL

GENERAL

INTRODUCTION

This Service Manual covers specific service information related to the models listed on the front cover.

SINGLE FLOOR MODEL OR

BATTERY FRYERS

Fryers with the Filter-Ready option installed, use the Mobile Filter. For service information related to the Mobile Filter, refer to F24599 MOBILE FILTERS. Filter-Ready fryers are available as single floor models only.

The information in the GR Series Service Manual also applies to Non-Filter Ready fryers. Non-Filter Ready fryers are available in batteries of two to six.

An RO Frymate (dump station) can be configured in a battery with fryers 15 1/2" or 21" in width.

GR SERIES GAS FRYERS - GENERAL

KLEENSCREEN FILTERING

SYSTEM

The new Kleenscreen filtering system has been integrated into the GR Series fryer battery. The filter is housed in a pull-out drawer assembly at the base of the fryer. The filtering components in the drawer include a stainless steel filter tank, crumb-catch basket and a dual element mesh filter screen. With the filter drawer closed, a self-seating oil return line provides the path to return the filtered oil to the fry tank.

This system is designed to provide a thorough and easy method for filtering shortening.

Some of the benefits include:

Self-contained system eliminating the use of external filter equipment.

Paperless filtering system.

Easy to clean and low maintenance.

The Kleenscreen fryer battery still utilizes many of the same components as the single floor model and Non-Filter ready battery fryers.

Kleenscreen fryer batteries are available in a minimum of two and a maximum of six fryer sections. The fryer size of each section is identical.

An RO Frymate (dump station) can also be included as one or more of the sections.
