controlled to produce the optimum in a tasty, appealing
product.
sure 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, a greater part of the natural juices
are retained within the food. A deadweight assembly vents excess
steam from the pot and maintains constant live steam pressure.
Energy savings is realized due to the unit’s short frying time,
low temperature, and heat retention of the stainless steel
frypot.
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.

2-3. SELECTING THE
LOCATION
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 a warmer 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 finish
out the other side. Order assembly can be moved away with only a
slight loss of efficiency. To properly service the fryer, 24 inches
(60.96 cm) of clearance is needed on all sides of the fryer. Access
for servicing can be attained by removing a side panel. Also, at
least 6 inches (15.24 cm) around the base of the unit is needed for
proper air supply to the combustion chamber.
To avoid a fire, install the fryer with minimum clearance
from all combustible and noncombustible materials,
6 inches (15.24 cm) from side and 6 inches (15.24 cm)
from back. If installed properly, the gas fryer is designed
for operation on combustible floors and adjacent to
combustible walls.
2-4. LEVELING THE FRYER
To avoid fire and ruined supplies, the area under the 690
fryer should not be used to store supplies.
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance
while it is in operation.
To prevent severe burns from splashing hot shortening,
position and install fryer to prevent tipping or movement. Restraining ties may be used for stabilization.
For proper operation, level the fryer from side to side and front
to back, using level on the flat areas around the frypot collar.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE LEVELING
INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN SHORTENING
OVERFLOWING THE FRYPOT WHICH COULD
CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS, PERSONAL INJURY,
FIRE, AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
408 2-5
Model 690
2-5. VENTILATION OF FRYER The fryer must be located with provision for venting into
adequate exhaust hood or ventilation system. This is essential
to permit efficient removal of the flue gases 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. GAS SUPPLY The gas fryer is factory available for either natural or propane gas.
Check the data plate on the right side panel of the cabinet to determine the proper gas supply requirements. The minimum supply
for natural gas is 7 inches water column (1.74 kPa), and 10 inches
water column (2.49 kPa) for propane.
Do not attempt to use any gas other than that specified
on the data plate. Incorrect gas supply could cause a
fire or explosion resulting in severe injuries and/or
property damage.
Please refer below for the recommended hookup of the fryer to
main gas line supply.
To avoid possible serious personal injury:
• Installation must conform with local, state, and
national codes, and be in accordance with Canadian
Gas Authority Standard CSA B149-& 2,Installation
Codes - Gas Burning Appliances and in accordance
with Australian Gas Association current edition of
AS5601 Gas Installations.
• The fryer and its manual 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 (3.45kPa)(34.47mbar)
2-6 408
Model 690
2-6. GAS SUPPLY • The fryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping
(Continued) system by closing its 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)
(34.47 mbar).
• A standard 3/4 inch, black steel pipe and malleable
fittings should be used for gas service connections.
• Do not use cast iron fittings.
• Although 3/4 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 (0.747 mbar).
Provisions should be made for moving the fryer for cleaning
and servicing. This may be accomplished by:
1. Installing a manual gas shutoff valve and disconnect
union, or
2. Installing a heavy-duty (min. 3/4 inch) design A.G.A.
certified connector which complies with standard connectors for moveable gas appliances. ANSI Z21.69 or
CAN/CSA 6.16. Also, a quick-disconnect coupling which
complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for use with Gas Fuel, ANSI 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 any quick-disconnect device or its associated
piping to limit the fryer movement.
3. See the illustration on the following page for the
proper connections of the flexible gas line and cable
restraint.
The cable restraint limits the distance the fryer can be
pulled from the wall. For cleaning and servicing the fryer,
the cable must be unsnapped from the unit and the flexible
gas line disconnected. This will allow better access to all
sides of the fryer. The gas line and cable restraint must be
reconnected once the cleaning or servicing is complete.

2-7. GAS LEAK TEST
Model 690
Prior to turning the gas supply on, be sure the gas valve
knob on the gas control valve is in the OFF position.
The word OFF is at the bottom of the knob when the
valve is closed.
Upon initial installation, and after moving the unit, the piping
and fittings should be checked for gas leaks. A simple checking
method is to turn on the gas, and brush all connections with a
soap solution. If bubbles occur, it indicates escaping gas. In this
event, the piping connection must be redone.
To avoid fire or explosion, never use a lighted match
or open flame to test for gas leaks. Ignited gas could
result in severe personal injury and/or property
damage.
2-8. GAS PRESSURE The gas pressure regulator on the gas control valve is
REGULATOR SETTING factory set as follows:
Natural: 3.5 inches water column (0.87 kPa)
Propane: 10.0 inches water column (2.49 kPa)
The gas pressure regulator has been set by Henny Penny
and is not to be adjusted by the user.
MAKE SURE GAS PRESSURE IS SET CORRECTLY. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN
SHORTENING OVERFLOWING THE FRYPOT,
WHICH COULD CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS, PERSONAL INJURY, FIRE, AND/OR PROPERTY
DAMAGE.
