INTRODUCTION

The GDF14 Series Frozen Product Dispenser is a compact, semi-automated system that replaces manual basketing of Frozen Fries /Appetizers. There are two models in the Series: GDF14 and GDF14E.

The GDF14 Series Frozen Product Dispenser weighs loads of frozen product and dispenses the selected weight into the Fryer Basket each time the Dispense button is pressed, or automatically dispenses when the Auto mode is activated.

The GDF14 Dispenser’s Hopper holds frozen product prior to Basket Loading. (See the Specifications for capacities. Capacity varies depending on the type and volume of the fry cut or appetizer.) A rotating Dispenser Drum inside the Hopper transfers the product onto the Accumulator Doors where a weighing system accurately weighs the frozen product.

NOTE: This equipment is manufactured in the U.S., therefore all hardware measurements are in English, and the metric conversions stated are approximate.
