NOTE: 1) FT3/HR (M3/HR) values may vary due to heating value and specic gravity of gas supplied by local companies.
2) To determine the inlet gas line diameter for the distance between the fryer and main gas regulator, locate the FT3/HR (M3/HR) of gas required for the fryer and
pipe length and read the pipe diameter on the top row. For example: a PAR25 fryer operating on NATURAL GAS requires 90 FT3/HR (2.5 M3/HR)
of gas at the fryer’s inlet gas manifold. If the fryer bank is located 60 feet from the building gas regulator, a 1” (25mm) diameter gas line MUST be installed
between the manifold and regulator.

PRE-INSTALLATION
PN 30A169 rev Jan2008 11
A. GENERAL: Safe and satisfactory operation of a Model PAR25 gas fryer depends on its proper installation. Installation
must conform to local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the current National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (latest edi tion). In Canada, gas installation shall be in accordance with the current CAN/CGA B 149.1 and .2 installation codes and/or local
codes. Each Model PAR25 fryer should be installed as follows:
1. Placed beneath a properly designed exhaust hood
2. Installed by a licensed plumber.
3. Connected to the type gas for which the unit was fabricated as shown on the rating plate.
4. Connected to the proper size pressure regulator installed in the gas supply line and adjusted to the proper manifold pressure.
5. Connected to the main gas supply line with the proper size supply line.
6. Restrained by use of a restraining device to avoid splashing of hot liquid and to assure tension cannot be placed on the exible
gas line or ttings.
CLEARANCES: The appliance must be kept free and clear of all combustibles. The minimum clearance from combustible and
non-combustible construction is 6" (152 mm) from the sides, and 6" (152 mm) from rear. The fryer may be installed on combustible oors.
NOTE: Adequate clearances must be provided for servicing and proper operation.
B. STANDARDS: Installation must be planned in accordance with all applicable state and local codes, taking into account the following
standards
1. The fryer and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing
2. The fryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pres-
3. When installed the fryer must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, in
4. Other applicable nationally recognized installation standards such as:
a. National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition)
American Gas Association
1515 Wilson Blvd.
Arlington, VA22209
b. NFPA Standards #54, #94 and #221 (latest edition)
National Fire Protection Association
470 Atlantic Avenue
Boston, MA 02110
c. ANSI Z21.69/CAN/CGA-6.16 AND Z21.41/CAN1 6.9
5. Exhaust vent hood, when installed must conform to the current NFPA 54-1 and Canadian CAN/CGA-1.11 (latest edition)
:
of that system at pressures in excess of psig (3.45kPa). In Canada, gas installation shall be in accordance with the current
CAN/CGA B 149.1 and .2 installation codes and/or local codes.
sure testing of the gas supply piping system at pressures equal to or less than psig (3.45kPA).
accordance with the current National Electrical code ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition). In Canada electrical installation must be
in accordance with the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code and/or local codes.
NOTE: Local building codes will usually not permit a fryer with its open tank of hot oil to be installed immediately next to an
open ame of any type, whether a broiler or an open burner or range. Check local codes before beginning installation.
C. AIR SUPPLY AND VENTILATION: The area around the appliance must be kept clear of any combustible or ammable products
and avoid any obstruction to the ow of ventilation air as well as for ease of maintenance and service. NOTHING is to be stored
in the interior of the fryer’s cabinet except the lter tub assembly.
1. A means must be provided for any commercial, heavy duty-cooking appliance to exhaust combustion wastes outside of the
building. It is essential that a fryer be set under a powered exhaust vent hood or that an exhaust fan be provided in the wall
above the unit, as exhaust temperatures are in the vicinity of 400˚F (204˚C).
NOTE: Strong exhaust fans in a hood or in the overall air conditioning system can produce slight air drafts in the room, which
can interfere with burner performance and be hard to diagnose. Air movement should be checked during installation and
if burner problems persist, make-up air openings or bafes may have to be provided in the room.
2. Exhaust temperature, in addition to the open tank of hot oil, make the storage of anything on shelving over or behind the
fryer unsafe.
3. Filters and drip troughs should be part of any industrial hood, but consult local codes before constructing and installing any
hood.
4. Provisions must be made for an adequate supply of fresh air and adequate clearance must be maintained for air openings into
the combustion chamber.

RECEIVING & INSTALLING
PN 30A169 rev Jan2008 13
A. UNPACKING: Check that the container is upright. Use an outward prying motion – DO NOT USE A HAMMER - to remove the
carton. Check the fryer for visible damage; if such damage has occurred do not refuse shipment, but contact the carrier and le
the appropriate freight claims.
B. INSTALLING: Roll the assembled fryer into the building, to its operating location.
WARNING: IMPROPER INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT, ALTERATION, SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE CAN CAUSE
PROPERTY DAMAGE, INJURY OR DEATH. READ THE INSTALLATION, OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE INSTALLING OR SERVICING THIS EQUIPMENT.
C. LEVELING:
1. When the fryer is placed in its operating location check to be sure it is level. If not, loosen the casters and insert the
appropriate number of shim plates between leg and caster plates then retighten the caster bolts.
2. If the oor is smooth and level, adjust to the high corner and measure with a spirit level. If the oor is uneven or has a
decided slope, level the unit with metal shims.
NOTE: A caster may not return exactly to the same position after being moved, which may require re-leveling after each move.
3. Connect the gas manifold to the building gas supply line by means of a CSA International APPROVED exible gas line as
shown in the gure below.
NOTE: CONNECT-IT inc. " (19mm), 1" (25mm) and 1 " (32mm) exible gas hose 4 feet long (1219mm) with a quick
disconnect coupling on one end is available from Ultrafryer Systems under PN 24322 (" (19mm) hose), PN 24323
(1" (25mm) hose) and PN 24456 (1 " (32mm) hose). These hoses are euipped with a fusible link, which melts at
361°F (183ºC) that will SHUT OFF the gas supply when it melts. A 44" (1119mm) long restraining device is also
available under PN 24324.
CAUTION: THE BUILDING GAS SUPPLY LINE MUST BE SIZED TO PROVIDE THE VOLUME OF GAS REQUIRED FOR

THIS COULD RESULT IN AN EXPLOSION OR A FIRE.
4. Combination gas control valve: The correct combination gas control valve and orice is installed at the factory for BUTANE,
NATURAL and PROPANE units based on each Purchase Order. This valve should be CHECKED/ADJUSTED by qualied
service personnel using proper test equipment for the following “OUTLET” gas pressure PRIOR to start-up of a fryer. NATU RAL GAS FRYERS 4" (102mm) W.C. BUTANE/PROPANE FRYERS 10" (254mm) W.C.
5. Rigid connections: Check any installer-supplied intake pipe(s) visually and/or blow them out with compressed air to clear dirt
particles, threading chips or any other foreign matter before connecting to the service line as these particles may clog the
orice when gas pressure is applied. All connections must be tested with a soapy solution before lighting the fryer.
USE AN OPEN FLAME TO
CHECK FOR LEAKS! Putting an open ame beside a new connection is not only dangerous, but
DO NOT
will often miss small leaks that a soapy solution would nd.
6. Flexible Couplings, Connectors: The installation is to be made with a connector that (1) complies with the Standard for Con-
nectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 (CAN/CGA-6.16), and a quick-disconnect device that complies with the
Standard for Quick-Dis-connect Devices for Use With Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41 (CAN1-6.9) (2) adequate means must be pro-
vided to limit the movement of the appliance without depending on the connector and the quick dis-connect device or its asso ciated piping to limit the appliance movement and (3) the location(s) where the restraining means may be attached to the
appliance shall be specied. DOMESTIC CONNECTORS ARE NOT SUITABLE!!!

CLEANING
PN 30A169 rev Jan2008 26
CLEANING - Any item of equipment operates better and lasts longer when it is kept clean and properly maintained. The Gas Fryer is
no
exception. In order for this fryer to provide years of trouble-free service, it must be CLEANED and MAINTAINED according to instruc-
tions
herein and at the intervals listed below:
WARNING!!! TO ASSURE PRODUCING A QUALITY PRODUCT WHILE PROLONGING THE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF
THE FRYER, ENSURE FILTERING, BOIL-OUT AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS ARE STRICTLY
FOLLOWED.
1. Clean the fryer surface periodically during operating hours with a solution of sanitizer and hot water, and at closing with stainless
steel cleaner. If necessary, use a dampened 3M type 7447 RED or 7440 BROWN (heavy duty) Scotch Brite pad to remove
encrusted material. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleaners, powders or metal devices to scrape stainless steel! Scratches
on stainless steel are almost impossible to remove!
CAUTION: DO NOT ALLOW ANY CLEANING SOLUTION OR WATER TO SPLASH INTO A VESSEL OF HOT COOKING
OIL, AS IT WILL CONTAMINATE THE OIL AND MAY CAUSE THE OIL TO SPLATTER CAUSING SEVERE BURNS.
