The Henny Penny Pressure Fryer is a basic unit of food
processing equipment. It has found wide application in
institutional and commercial food service operations.
A combination of Pressure, Heat, and Time is automatically controlled to produce the optimum in a tasty,
appealing product.
ressure
e
Pressure is basic to this method of food preparation.
This pressure is developed from the natural moisture of
the food. The patented lid traps this moisture and uses
it as steam. Because the steam builds rapidly, the
greater part of the natural juices are retained within
the food. An exclusive operating valve vents excess
steam from the pot and maintains constant low, live
steam pressure.
Heat generated is another important factor of the pressure fryer. The normal suggested frying operation is
between 315 and 325°F. This results in energy savings
and extends the frying life of the shortening. Energy
savings is realized due to the unit’s short frying time,
low temperature, and heat retention of the stainless
steel frypot.
Time is important because the shorter the time in-
volved in frying foods results in additional economies
for the user. Foods are table ready in less time than it
would take to fry them in a conventional open-type
fryer.
As in any unit of food service equipment, the Henny
Penny Pressure Fryer does require care and maintenance. Suggestions for this maintenance and cleaning
are contained in this manual and must become a regular part of the operation of the unit.

are shipped completely assembled. If ordered, optional
casters are packaged and shipped separately.
1. Cut the band from around the bottom of the carton.
2. Lift the carton from the fryer.
3. Open the lid of the fryer and remove the basket plus
all accessories.
4. Lay the fryer on its side, resting it in supports.
The fryer weighs approximately 300 pounds.
Care should be taken when lifting to prevent
personal injury.

5. Remove the four leg bolts from the wooden shipping base.
Remove and discard the wooden base.
6. Thread the shipping bolts back into the legs to provide leveling
adjustment feet. If ordered, install casters into the legs, with the
locking casters in front.
7. Place fryer in an upright position.

The proper location of the fryer is very important for operation,
speed, and convenience. Choose a location which will provide
easy loading and unloading without interfering with the final assembly of food orders.
Operators have found that frying from raw to
finish, and holding the product in warmers, provides fast continuous
service. Landing or dumping tables should be provided next to, at
least, one side of the fryer.
Keep in mind the best efficiency will be
obtained by a straight line operation, i.e. raw in one side and
finished out the other side.
Order assembly can be moved away
with only a slight loss of efficiency.
The fryer should be installed in such a way as to prevent tipping or
movement causing splashing of hot liquid shortening.
This may be
accomplished by the location of the fryer, or by restraining ties.

The gas Model 600 Fryer is design certified by A.G.A. and
CGA. for installation on combustible floors and adjacent to
combustible walls.
Fryer must be installed with minimum
clearance from all combustible and noncombustible materials,
6 inches f?om side and 6 inches from
and front to back.
Sing a level placed on the flat areas around the
back.
fiypot collar, adjust the leveling bolts or casters until the unit is level.
The fryer should be located with provision for venting
into an adequate exhaust hood or ventilation system.
This is essential to permit efficient removal of the
steam exhaust and frying odors. Special precaution
must be taken in designing an exhaust canopy to avoid
interference with the operation of the fryer. Make certain the exhaust hood is designed high enough to allow
for proper opening of the fryer lid. We recommend you
consult a local ventilation or heating company to help
in designing an adequate system.
Ventilation must conform to local, state and
national codes. Consult your local fire department
or building authorities.
When installing the gas fryer do not attach an
extension to the gas flue exhaust stack. This may
impair proper operation of the burner, causing
malfunctions and possible negative back draft.

2-8. GAS PIPINGPlease refer to the illustration below for the recommended hookup
of the fryer to the main gas line supply.
To avoid possible serious personal injury:
•Installation must conform with American National Standard Z223.1-Latest Edition National Fuel Gas Code and
the local municipal building codes. In Canada, installation
must be in accordance with Standard CGA Bl49-1&2, Installation Codes Gas Burning Appliances and local codes.
In Australia, installation must conform to Australian requirements.
•The fryer and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2
PSIG (3.45 KPA).
•The fryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG. (3.45 KPA)
•A standard 1/2 inch, black steel pipe and malleable fittings
should be used for gas service connections.
•Do not use cast iron fittings.
•Although 1/2 inch size pipe is recommended, piping should
be of adequate size and installed to provide a supply of gas
sufficient to meet the maximum demand without undue loss
of pressure between the meter and the fryer. The pressure
loss in the piping system should not exceed 0.3 inch water
column.
Provisions should be made for moving the fryer for cleaning and
servicing. This may be accomplished by:
1.Installing a manual gas shut off valve and a disconnect
union, or
2.Installing a heavy duty (design A.G.A. certified connector
which complies with the Standard for Connectors for Moveable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.6, or CAN/CGA 6.16 with
a quick disconnect coupling (Henny Penny Part No. 19921,
which complies with ANSI standard Z21.41, or CAN 1-
6.9. Also adequate means must be provided to limit the
movement of the fryer without depending on the connector
and quick-disconnect device or its associated piping to limit
the fryer movement.

Prior to turning the gas supply on, be sure the
gas dial cock on the fryer gas valve is in the OFF
position.
After the piping and fittings have been installed, check
for gas leaks. A simple checking method is to turn on
the gas and brush all connections with $ soap solution.
If bubbles occur, it indicates escaping gas. In this event,
the piping connection must be redone.
Never use a lighted match
for gas leaks. Escaping gas could cause an explo-
sion resulting in severe personal injury and/or

The electric fryer is available from the factory wired for
208,220/240, or 440/480 volts, single or three phase, 60
Hertz service. The proper power service cable must be
ordered as an accessory or provided at installation.
Check the data plate on the inside of the fryer door to
determine the correct power supply.
This fryer must be adequately and safely
grounded. Refer to local electrical codes for correct grounding procedures. If fryer is not
adequately grounded, electrical shock could result *
A separate disconnect switch with proper capacity fuses
or breakers must be installed at a convenient location
between the fryer and the power source. (The field supply wiring to the fryer should be of the size indicated in
the data table.) It should be an insulated copper conductor rated for 600 volts and 90°C. For runs longer than 50
feet, use the next larger size wire.
DO NOT DISCONNECT THE GROUND PLUG.
This fryer MUST be adequately and safely
grounded or electrical shock could result. Refer to
local electrical codes for correct grounding
procedures or in absence of local codes, with The
National Electrical Code, ANSIlNFPA No. 70Latest Edition. Canadian models are supplied with

In Canada, all electrical connections are to be
made in accordance with GSA C22.1, Canadian

he final check to insure a proper installation involves
test frying. This gives the installer an opportunity to
observe the actual cooking operation of the pressure
fryer.
efore the actual cooking operation and adding
shortening to the fry-pot, be sure fry-pot, filter
screen assembly, and drain pan are cleaned. Filter
screen assembly and drain pan should be cleaned
with soap and hot water and thoroughly dried
before reassembling. At this time the fry-pot should
also be cleaned. &efer to paragraphs 3-15 & 3-16
in the “Operation”
section of this manual.
