CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT INFORMATION
2.2 General (cont.)
Where conflicts exist between instructions and information in this manual and local code or
national codes, or regulations, installation and operation shall comply with the codes or
regulations in force in the country in which the equipment is installed.
DANGER
Building codes prohibit a fryer with its open tank of hot oil/shortening from being
installed beside an open flame of any type, including those of broilers and ranges.
Upon arrival, inspect the fryer carefully for visible or concealed damage. (See Receiving and
Unpacking Equipment in Section 2.1.)
CAUTION
Dean appliances equipped with legs are for stationary installations. Appliances
fitted with legs must be lifted during movement to avoid damage to the appliance
and bodily injury. For moveable installations, optional equipment casters must be
used. Questions? Call 1-800-551-8633.
2.3 Product Description
Dean Decathlon Series gas fryers are energy efficient, tube-style, gas-fired units. All units are
shipped completely assembled with accessories packed inside the frypot. All units are adjusted,
tested and inspected at the factory before shipment. Sizes, weights and input rates of all models are
listed in this manual.
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of
the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil frying system, particularly the aspects of
system operation, oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.
2.4 Principles of Operation
The incoming gas flows through orifices and is mixed with air in the burners to create the correct
ratio for proper combustion. The mixture is ignited at the front end of each heat tube by the pilot
light. Internal diffusers slow the flame as it goes through the burner tube. This slow, turbulent flame
increases heat transfer to the walls of the tubes to heat the oil more efficiently.
