1-4 INTRODUCTION

March 2015

Model CFE-415, 427

The Henny Penny open fryer is a basic unit of food processing equipment designed to cook foods better and easier. The micro computer-based design helps make this possible. This unit is used only in institutional and commercial food service operations, and operated by qualified personnel.

The Chick-fil-Acontrols for the Henny Penny Models CFE-415 and

CFE-427 have many features to allow the Operator to produce consistent, quality product. The controls monitor not only cooking times and temperatures, but also shortening condition, product weights, product temperatures, and many other operational variables. The controls may vary the actual shortening temperature and cook times, based on changes of the operational variables.

The controls also have very extensive self-diagnostic functions which alert the Operator to both component and procedure problems.

Some unique features of the fryer are listed below:

•Diagnostic Function-provides summary of fryer and Operator performance; see Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section

•Alarms and Error Messages-provide immediate feedback for Operator error or fryer malfunction; see Warnings and Error Messages Section

•Status Mode-allows the Operator to view basic fryer information and status; see Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section

•Information Mode-gathers and stores historic information on the fryer and Operator performance, and can be viewed by the Operator; see Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section

•Manual Program Mode-Operator can set time and temperature for nonstandard products; see Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section

•Easy toggle between English and Spanish operation. See Diagnostic Mode and Special Functions Section

•Clean-Out Mode-a preprogrammed function for cleaning the frypot; see Cleaning the Frypot Section

SECTION 2: INSTALLATION

2-1	This section provides the installation and unpacking instructions for the
INTRODUCTION	Henny Penny fryer.

Installation of this unit should be performed only by a qualified service technician.

Do not puncture the fryer with any objects such as drills or screws as component damage or electrical shock could result.

2-2

UNPACKING Any shipping damage should be noted in the presence of the delivery agent and signed prior to his or her departure.

1.Carefully cut and remove banding straps.

2.Lift the main box off the fryer. (This procedure should be performed in an area with high ceilings, to avoid damage to the unit and ensure sufficient clearance.

3.Unlatch and remove the drain pan from underneath fryer. Place in a location clear of unpacking area.

4.Cut and remove plastic banding strap from around the fryer that is laced through the pallet build-ups.

5.Tilt the fryer to one side and knock off the build-up free of fryer. This will take two individuals, one for the tilting and second one to remove build-up.

6.Once build-up is removed, relax fryer on pallet. Carefully push fryer sideways in the direction of the removed build-up to clear the second build-up.

2-2 UNPACKING (CONT.)

Model CFE-415, 427

7.Continue to slowly push fryer in the same sideways direction. Make sure the casters are all rolling on the pallet deck board surfaces. Do not allow casters to drop between pallet surface spaces. Ease fryer off the pallet edge and clear of pallet.

Remove filter drain pan from fryer before removing fryer from pallet or damage to the unit could result. Figure 1.

Take care when moving the fryer to prevent personal injury. The CFE415 weighs about 280 lbs. and the CFE-427 about 400 lbs.

2-3 SELECTING THE FRYER

LOCATION

The proper location of the fryer is very important for operation, speed, and convenience. The location of the open fryer should allow clearances for servicing and proper operation. 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. 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.

To avoid fire and ruined supplies, the area under the fryer should not be used to store supplies.

To prevent severe burns from splashing hot oil, position and install fryer to prevent tipping or movement. Restraining ties may be used for stabilization.

		For proper operation, the open fryer should be level from side-to-side and
	2-4	front to back. Using a level placed on the flat areas around the vat collar,
		on the middle well, and then adjust the casters until the unit is level.
	LEVELING THE FRYER

2-5 VENTILATION OF FRYER

Model CFE-415, 427

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. 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.

2-6	Check the data plate, mounted on the left-hand side of shroud for 427
	or the right-hand side of shroud for 415, to determine the correct power
ELECTRICAL	supply.
REQUIREMENTS
	To avoid electrical shock, do not disconnect the ground (earth) plug.
	This fryer must be adequately and safely grounded (earthed). Refer to
	local electrical codes for correct grounding (earthing) procedures or in
	absence of local codes, with The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
	No. 70-(the current edition). In Canada, all electrical connections are to
	be made in accordance with CSA C22.2, Canadian Electrical Code Part 1,
	and or local codes.
	To avoid electrical shock, this appliance must be equipped with an
	external circuit breaker which will disconnect all ungrounded (unearthed)
	conductors. The main power switch on this appliance does not
	disconnect all line conductors.
	(FOR EQUIPMENT WITH CE MARK ONLY!)
	To prevent electric shock hazard, this appliance must be bonded to
	other appliances or touchable metal surfaces in close proximity to this
	appliance with an equipotential bonding conductor. This appliance is
	equipped with an equipotential lug for this purpose. The equipotential
	lug is marked with the following symbol.

2-6 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS (CONT.)

DRYWALL CONSTRUCTION Secure I-bolt to a building stud. Do not attach to drywall only. Preferred installation is approximately six inches to either side of service. Cable restraint must be at least six inches shorter than flexible conduit.

Model CFE-415, 427

An all pole, separate disconnect switch, with proper capacity fuses or breakers must be installed at a convenient location between the fryer and the power source, and must be installed according to national and local codes. It should be an insulated copper conductor rated for 600 volts and 90° C. For runs longer than 50 feet (15.24 m), use the next larger wire size. CE units require a minimum wire size of 6 mm to be wired to the terminal block.

It is recommended that a 30 mA rated protective device such as a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB), or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI), be used on the fryer circuit.

Permanently connected electric fryers with casters must be installed with flexible conduit and a cable restraint, when installed in the United

States. See illustration at left. Holes are available in the rear fryer frame for securing the cable restraint to the fryer. The cable restraint does not prevent the fryer from tipping.

The supply power cords shall be oil-resistant, sheathed flexible cable, no lighter than ordinary polychloroprene or other equivalent synthetic elastomer-sheathed cord.

3-4 FILLING OR ADDING OIL

Figure 1

March 2015

Model CFE-415, 427

The oil level must always be above the heater elements when fryer is heating and at the oil level indicators on the rear of vat. Failure to follow these instructions could result in a fire and/or damage to the fryer.

Solid oil is not recommended. Solid oil could cause clogging and pump failures.

Wear gloves to avoid severe burns when pouring hot oil into vat. Oil and all metal parts that are in contact with the oil are extremely hot; take care to avoid splashing.

1.It is recommended that a high quality frying oil be used in the open fryer. Some low grade oils have a high moisture content and cause foaming and boiling over.

2.Oil Capacity: 48 lbs/vat

All vats have 2 level indicator lines inscribed on the rear wall of the vat. The upper-most line shows the oil at the proper level when

heated. The lower line shows oil at the proper level at room temperature. Figure 1.

BASIC OPERATIONS

March 2015

Model CFE-415, 427

1.Fill the oil reservoir. See Section 3-5.

2.Turn the POWER switch to ON. Upon initial start-up “CLOCK SET” may show in display. Set the clock to your time, following prompts on the display, or see Section 3-2 for help. Then display asks if the shortening is “NEW” or “OLD”. The controls automatically adjust the shortening temperature to the age of

the shortening. Use

to set the number of days of old

shortening.

Unit automatically goes into the Melt Cycle until the oil temperature reaches 230°F (110°C). The controls go into the Heat Cycle and the shortening heats to a preset temperature after reaching 230°F.

Do not leave fryer unattended unless enough oil has melted to completely cover all of the elements.

3.Once out of the Melt Cycle, flashes until 5° before setpoint temperature (plus any offset temperature).

4.Stir the shortening when prompted to “STIR VAT”. Be sure to stir down into the bottom of the vat and back up to throughly mix the oil from bottom to top.

5.Once the controls detect a stir, the timer will count down. Continue stirring during this time.

6.Unit will return to flashing “WAIT”. (If it prompts to “STIR

VAT” additional times, continue stirring until the prompt disappears.) When vat has cooled to cooking temperature, then lights and the selected product shows on display.

The heat cycles on and off near the setpoint temperature to help prevent overshooting the setpoint temperature (proportional control).
