COMPLETE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES ARE LISTED IN THE
INSIDER INSTALLATION, OPERATORS AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
TypeINSIDER Ventless Donut Center
The Insider is Belshaw’s distinctive donut frying system
that eliminates the need for a standard exhaust hood.
With its ability to operate indoors, the Insider offers unique
benefits:
The Insider can be easily moved from one place to
•
another. The exhaust hood is built-in and there is no
exterior ductwork.
Customers in high traffic areas can watch the Insider
•
frying donuts automatically. The operator has only to mix
batter, fill the Donut Robot® hopper and bag donuts from
the Roto-Cooler, a rotating tray that collects the donuts
automatically.
The Insider eliminates the purchase and installation cost
•
of standard ventilation and fire suppression hoods.
The Insider is designed to attract the interest of
•
passers-by. With its large window viewing area and
attractive appearance the Insider has great merchandising
potential. Vehicle-style graphic wraps can easily be
applied to top, bottom and side panels.
The Insider addresses fire prevention, air filtration, and
•
sanitation requirements. Cabinet and fryers are tested by
ETL and listed to UL-197, UL-710B, CSA C22.2 and NSF-4
standards.

Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations.
Fire Prevention/ Suppression System
The Insider uses the Pyro-Chem Restaurant Fire Suppression System. It is a pre-engineered
type as defined by NFPA-17A Standard for Wet Chemical Extinguishing Systems and is
designed to provide fire protection for restaurant cooking appliances, hoods, and ducts.
The Pyro-Chem System (PLC-240/300 KITCHEN KNIGHT II) utilizes a wet chemical agent
specifically designed to suppress restaurant-cooking fires. The system provides automatic
actuation and can be manually actuated through a remote mechanical pull station. Upon
actuation, the system discharges a pre-determined amount of agent to the duct, plenum, and
cooking appliances. The agent acts to suppress fires in 3 ways:
• Both the agent itself and the resulting steam formation interrupt the chemical chain
reaction causing combustion.
• The agent cools the fire bringing it below auto-ignition temperature.
• The agent reacts with hot grease forming a soap-like layer (saponification) that helps
prevent the escape of combustible vapors, thus preventing re-ignition.
The Pyro-Chem Restaurant Fire Suppression System has been tested to the UL Standard for
Fire Extinguishing Systems For Protection of Restaurant Cooking Areas, UL300 and PyroChem listed by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. under ULC/ORD-C1254.6-1995 listing meets
Underwriters Laboratories of Canada’s standards.
Clean Air- Ozone and Emissions
The Insider meets the emission requirements of 5.0mg/m3 as measured at the exhaust outlet
of the system per the requirements of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Test
Method 202, Determination of Condensable Particulate Emissions from Stationary Sources,
which is referenced in NFPA-96 (Test results 1.81 mg/m3) UL File E213302.
Underwriters Laboratories also tested it at well below the maximum ozone levels permitted of
0.1ppm time-weighted average with a maximum peak concentration of 0.3ppm (Test results
less than 0.015 ppm).
Sanitation
The Insider is built in accordance with NSF International Standard No. 4, for commercial
cooking and hot food storage equipment and conforms to ANSI/NSF STD 4 (ETL Listing
#68183).
The fryer portion, Donut Robot Mark II, Mark V, or the Mark IX, is separately ETL
Classified in accordance with NSF International Standard No. 4. One of the above models is
used in each Insider:
Materials employed have been found to be able to withstand normal wear, penetration of
vermin, corrosive action of foods, cleaning products, and other elements in the end use
environment. The materials do not impart an odor, color, taste, or toxic material to food
products.
Electrical
The Insider and the Mark Donut Robots are also listed as Commercial Cooking Appliances,
in accordance with UL 197, and they are in compliance with electrical code ANSI/NFPA 70
the Standard for Commercial Electric Cooking Appliances and conforms to ANSI/UL STD
197 Certified to CAN/CSA C22.2 STD No. 109 (ETL Listing #68183).

Insider Installation Requirements
INSTALLATION must be done by certified personnel acceptable to the authority
having jurisdiction and they shall inspect and test the Insider. A test of the safety interlocks, control head and manual pull station may be performed and a trip test and
dry pressure test may also be required at installation.
The charging and setup of the Pyro-Chem PLC-240/300 Fire Suppression System must
be done by certified personnel and the use and maintenance of the Insider is to be in
accordance with NFPA-96.
The manufacturer’s instructions for “System Checkout after Installation” is on page 17

• Be careful never to get shortening, water,
or other materials on the floor. If
anything does get spilled on the floor,
mop it up immediately. Materials on the
floor can cause people to slip or fall,
resulting in serious injury or loss of life.
• To prevent unintentional startup and
possible fire, unplug the machine if there
is a local power outage. When the
power is restored, it is safe to plug the
machine in again.
• To avoid electrocution, make sure that
all electrical cords are not frayed or
cracked and that they do not pass
through any water or shortening.
• Make sure that all electrical cords are
routed so that no one will trip over them.
•The Insider is “Intended for use in
noncombustible surroundings only.”
• To avoid damaging the machine, never
use force to assemble, disassemble,
operate, clean, or maintain it.
