MERIDIAN Series

for Frymaster
MJ50 Gas Fryers

Direct Replacement Kit

The FAST Upgrade Kits for Frymaster
MJ50 Gas Fryers give higher and
more consistent yields than any
electromechanical controls or other
electronic controllers already installed
in your kitchen.

Easiest To Install & Use

Simply remove the original controls
from the fryer manufacturer and slide
in the FASTRON controller made by
the industry’s controller specialists.

Ensure Food Safety and Quality

Product that is undercooked or held
too long in the Danger Zone (40°­140°F/5°-60°C) can potentially expose
your customers and crew to danger­ous food-borne illness. Bacteria
multiplication can be prevented by
controlling the time a product is
cooked and/or held. The Meridian
helps operators avoid food safety dan­gers by automatically monitoring these
cook and hold times. Precisely timed
products deliver consistently good­tasting food to your customers.
Hold timers also ensure that expired
product is never served.

Increase Yields

Independent tests show the
(FAST.Flex)
the best and most consistent yields
across load sizes and cooking temper­atures, regardless of product
temperature and moisture content. A
reduction in food waste can also be
realized.

Easy to Program

(FAST.Nav)TMmobile phone style
and predictive text programming
reduces training time and increases
productivity.

User-Friendly Messaging

Dual, 14-segment 8-character displays
allow a greater range of names and
prompts to be used. Create your own
product menu and action alarm

names, or choose from a pre-pro­grammed library of standard menu
items.

Interchangeable with Other Fryers

Easily move your Meridian to another
fryer eliminating the need to purchase
a new control. The controller can be
configured to work on fryers from a
variety of manufacturers.

Secure Operation

Separate pass codes for store man­agers and employees prevent
unauthorized re-programming.

Energy Savings (optional)

Save energy dollars with the FAST
patented Set Back feature. The con­troller will automatically lower the
appliance’s temperature during inac­tive periods.

Filter Lockout Oil Management

(optional) Reduce costs by extending
the usable life of your oil with the
FAST patented SmartStat
ture control technology. Filtering your
oil at pre-set time(s) of the day will not
only give you longer oil life, but will
also improve product flavor and
reduce the amount of time and labor it
takes to change out the oil.

(FASTRON.) Meridian comes with
24-hour programming assistance via
toll-free phone.
