1.3Equipment Description
Frymaster Pasta Magic gas cookers are specifically designed to deliver high volumes of cooked or blanched food automatically. All models feature a unique infrared burner system that delivers 80,000 BTUs (23.4 kW – 84.4, megajoules) to cook 7.22 pounds (3.25kg) of dry pasta per bulk basket. The unit can cook 30 pounds of dry pasta per hour, the equivalent of 136 eight-ounce servings. It can also retherm 12 individual servings of pasta, or other vacuum-sealed foods, at a time. The cookpot measures 18 x 24 x 8 inches (457 x 610 x 203 mm) and holds 12.7 gallons (48-liters) of water.
1-2
Model Comparison:
GPCRB/GPCR: The “Gas Pasta Magic System” consists of a gas cooker and rinse tank combination. The unit is equipped with a programmable controller, which controls water temperature, water level, and cooking times. A swing-away water faucet is standard. GPCRB units are equipped with a programmable basket lift system, which lowers and raises bulk or individualized portions of pasta.; GPCR units are not equipped with a basket lift system. The cookpot is safeguarded against over filling and boilover by a large overflow drain. “SD” following the model designation indicates a stainless steel cookpot and door, and enameled cabinet. “SC” following the model designation indicates all stainless steel components.
GPCB/GPC: These standalone cookers are essentially the same as the GPCRB, but without the built-in rinse tank. GPCB models have an automatic basket lift, automatic water filling, and optional starch skimming. GPC models have no basket lifts. The cookpot in both is safeguarded against over filling and boilover by a large overflow drain. “SD” following the model designation indicates a stainless steel cookpot and door, and an enameled cabinet. “SC” following the model designation indicates all stainless steel components.
All Models: All units are equipped with automatic water filling (Autofill). The Autofill feature maintains the cookpot water level approximately 1-inch (32mm) below the overflow drain.
The optional Autoskim feature adds eight gallons at the top of the cooker over a three minute interval. This causes the water to swirl, moving surface starch to the overflow drain. The Autoskim feature eliminates the need for manual skimming.
1.4Installation, Operating, and Service Personnel

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL
CHAPTER 2: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
2.1General Installation Requirements
Qualified, licensed, and/or authorized installation or service personnel, as defined in Section 1.5 of this manual, should perform all installation and service on Frymaster equipment.
Conversion of this appliance from one type of gas to another should only be performed by qualified, licensed, and/or authorized installation or service personnel as defined in Section 1.5 of this manual.
Failure to use qualified, licensed, and/or authorized installation or service personnel (as defined in Section 1.5 of this manual) to install, convert to another gas type, or otherwise service this equipment will void the Frymaster warranty and may result in damage to the equipment or injury to personnel.
Where conflicts exist between instructions and information in this manual and local 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.
Upon arrival, inspect the cooker carefully for visible or concealed damage. (See Shipping Damage Claim Procedure in Chapter 1.)
CLEARANCE AND VENTILATION
The cooker(s) must be installed with 6 inches (150mm) clearance at both sides and back when installed adjacent to combustible construction; no construction; no clearance is required when installed adjacent to noncombustible construction. A minimum of 24 inches (600mm) clearance should be provided at the front of the cooker. To provide the airflow necessary for good combustion and burner operation, the areas surrounding the cooker front, sides, and rear must be kept clear and unobstructed.
DANGER
This appliance must be installed with sufficient ventilation to prevent the occurrence of unacceptable concentrations of substances harmful to the health of personnel in the room in which it is installed.
One of the most important considerations of efficient cooker operation is ventilation. Cookers must be installed in an area with an adequate air supply and adequate ventilation. Make sure the cooker is
2-1
installed so that products of combustion are removed efficiently, and that the kitchen ventilation system does not produce drafts that interfere with proper burner operation.
The cooker flue opening must not be placed close to the intake of the exhaust fan, and the cooker must never have its flue extended in a “chimney” fashion. An extended flue will change the combustion characteristics of the cooker, causing longer recovery time. It also frequently causes delayed ignition.
When installed beneath a ventilation hood, adequate distance must be maintained from the flue outlet of the cooker to the lower edge of the ventilation filter bank. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45° with a drip tray placed beneath the lowest edge of the filter. For U.S. installation, NFPA standard No. 96 states, “A minimum distance of 18 inches (450mm) should be maintained between the flue outlet and the lower edge of the filter.”
For installations in other than the United States, installers should contact the appropriate local or national agency for information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods.
CAUTION
DO NOT install this appliance directly over a drain opening.
ELECTRICAL GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS
All electrically operated appliances must be grounded in accordance with all applicable national and local codes. A wiring diagram is located on the inside of the cooker door. Refer to the rating plate on the inside of the cooker door for the proper voltages.
DANGER
If this appliance is equipped with three-prong (grounding) plug, it must be plugged directly into properly grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the plug.
DANGER
This equipment requires electrical power for operation.
Place the gas control valve in the OFF position in case of a prolonged power outage.
Do not attempt to use the equipment during a power outage.
NATIONAL CODE REQUIREMENTS
Pasta Magic cookers are manufactured to use the type of gas specified on the rating plate. The rating plate is attached to the inside of the cooker door. Connect a cooker only to the type of gas indicated on the rating plate.
Installation shall be made with a gas connector that complies with the national and local codes or regulations in force in the country in which the appliance is being installed. Quick-disconnect devices, if used, shall likewise comply with the national and local codes or regulations in force in the country in which the appliance is being installed
