Auto lift open fryers
General Information
The Henny Penny auto lift open
fryer offers high-volume frying with
auto lift capabilities. Auto lift open
fryers automatically raise the load
out of the fry pot when cooking
program is complete. This feature
promotes perfect results without
constant monitoring and can
significantly increase productivity in
lightly staffed operations.
The quiet, dependable auto lift
mechanism is designed into the
high-quality, high-efficiency Henny
Penny 320 Series open fryer without
adding one square inch to the
footprint.
Henny Penny’s unique highefficiency heat-exchange design
produces extremely fast temperature
recovery—typically in seconds—
while requiring less than 2kW per
gallon of shortening. Fast recovery

speeds up production, saves energy,

and preserves frying oil quality by
reducing temperature fluctuations.
Built-in filtration system filters hot
frying oil in under 4 minutes, with no
separate pumps or pans required. Hot
filtered oil returns directly to the fry
well. Quick, easy and frequent filtering
extends shortening life and can result
in significant savings in time and
direct shortening costs.
The OEA/OGA-321 auto lift open
fryer features two lifters for half or fullbasket loads. Henny Penny’s heavyduty stainless steel rectangular fry pot
promotes fast, even cooking and
comes with a 7-year warranty—the
best in the business.
The standard Computron
controller provides fully automatic,
programmable operation, as well as
energy-saving, filtration and load
management features.
