KLEENSCREEN FILTERING SYSTEM
The new Kleenscreen filtering system has been
integrated into the GR Series fryer battery. The filter is
housed in a pull-out drawer assembly at the base of the
fryer. The filtering components in the drawer include a
stainless steel filter tank, crumb-catch basket and a dual
element mesh filter screen. With the filter drawer closed,
a self-seating oil return line provides the path to return
the filtered oil to the fry tank.
This system is designed to provide a thorough and easy
method for filtering fryer oil.
Some of the benefits include:
• Self-contained system eliminating the use of
external filter equipment.
• Paperless filtering system.
• Easy to clean and low maintenance.
The fryer battery still utilizes many of the same
components as the Vulcan GR series fryers.
Kleenscreen fryer batteries are available in a minimum
of two and a maximum of six fryer sections. The fryer
size of each section is identical.
An RO Frymate (dump station) can also be included as
one or more of the sections.
NOTE: 1. For each additional fryer section, add 15 1/2 inches to the width. 2. For each additional fryer section,
add 21 inches to the width.

GR SERIES GAS FRYERS - SERVICE PROCEDURES AND ADJUSTMENTS
SERVICE PROCEDURES AND ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: CERTAIN PROCEDURES IN THIS SECTION REQUIRE ELECTRICAL TEST OR MEASUREMENTS
WHILE POWER IS APPLIED TO THE MACHINE. EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION AT ALL TIMES. IF TEST POINTS
ARE NOT EASILY ACCESSIBLE, DISCONNECT POWER, ATTACH TEST EQUIPMENT AND REAPPLY POWER TO
TEST.
TEMPERATURE PROBE TEST
The temperature probe is used for both the solid state
control and the computer control. The probe is an RTD
(resistance temperature detector) of the thermistor type.
As temperature increases the resistance value
decreases.
Probe Fault
If a temperature probe fault or high temperature
condition occurs, a fault message will be displayed and
the electronic alarm will sound continuously. The heat
demand and basket lift outputs are deactivated. If a
cooking cycle is in process (timer active), it will be
cancelled and the key pad disabled.
This will continue until the fault clears, power is cycled
or problem resolved.
Control TypeDisplay Message
SOLID STATEAn open will display “Prob” and
a short or high temperature
condition will display “HI”.
COMPUTERAn open will display “PROBE
OPEN” and a short or high
temperature condition will
display “PROBE SHORT”.
To Check:
1. Disconnect the temperature probe & the drain valve
interlock (DVI) connector.
NOTE: The connector has 6 pin positions and is labeled
“G” on the wiring diagram.
2. Test the probe using a VOM to measure resistance.
Place the meter probe leads in pins 1 & 3.
A. If the measured resistance values are within the
allowable range, the probe is functioning properly.

control module is energized with 24 volts between
terminals 5 and 6.
An output of 24 volts is sent from terminals 2 and 3 to
the pilot coil on the combination valve, allowing gas flow
to the pilot; and spark voltage is sent from terminal 9 to
begin sparking at the ignitor/flame sense electrode. The
sparking will continue until an adequate pilot flame is
sensed or for a maximum of 90 seconds.
If pilot ignition is not established within the first several
seconds of ignition trial time, the cooking control
displays a message indicating “pilot out” or “ignition
failure” as the ignition module continues to generate a
spark at the ignitor/flame sense electrode.
If pilot is not established within the 90 second ignition
trial time, the ignition module locks out power to the gas
valve. A message is displayed by the control indicating
“ignition lockout”; keypad is disabled and the electronic
alarm will sound continuously.
The system remains locked out until the power switch is
cycled to reset the system and re-start the ignition trial
cycle.
Once the pilot flame is confirmed, a 24 volt output from
terminal 1 will provide the ignition status input signal to
the cooking control. When the cooking control calls for
heat, the heat output is activated and power is applied to
the heat control Triac on the Control Interface Board.
With the Triac powered, the main valve coil on the
combination valve is then energized, allowing gas flow
to the burners.

GR SERIES GAS FRYERS - ELECTRICAL OPERATION
ELECTRICAL OPERATION
COMPONENT FUNCTION
FRYER CONTROLS
Solid State or Computer
Cooking Controls
(“D” or “C” Models) .................................... Monitors and evaluates input signals to the control. Controls the cooking
cycle: Activates the heat output signal to maintain frying oil temperature,
counts product cook time(s), signals the electronic alarm at the end of a
cooking cycle and activates the left and right lift output signal to operate
the basket lifts(s).
NOTE: By utilizing the same wiring harness connections, the two control
types are interchangeable between fryers.
Control Interface
Board............................................................ Provides the output signal interface from the cooking control, to regulate
gas heating and basket lift operation. The board components consist of a
heat control Triac and two single pole N.O. relays.
Transformer................................................. Supplies 24VAC to the cooking control. If equipped with electronic ignition,
also supplies power to ignition control module. Transformer is energized
when power switch is turned on.
Power Switch .............................................. Supplies power to control circuit.
Gas Combination
Valve............................................................. Allows gas flow to the pilot when pilot valve coil is energized; and gas flow
to the burners when main valve solenoid is energized. Also, regulates the
gas manifold pressure.
High Limit Thermostat ............................... Prevents the frying oil from reaching temperatures over 450°F (auto reset
@ 415°F). Serves as a backup to the cooking control’s high temperature
alarm setting of 415°F (normal operation resumes when temperature falls
below this point).
Temperature Probe..................................... Senses temperature of frying oil. Converts the temperature into a
resistance valve which is monitored by the cooking control. The probe is
an RTD (resistance temperature detector) of the Thermistor type. As
temperature increases the resistance value decreases.
Ignition Control Module ............................. Controls and monitors gas pilot ignition. Energizes pilot valve coil on the
combination control valve and generates spark for pilot ignition. Monitors
the presence of a flame and supplies an ignition status input signal to the
cooking control. Electronic ignition models only.
Ignitor/Flame Sense ................................... Ignites the gas pilot and senses the presence of a flame. The flame
presence generates a micro-amp flame sense current that is rectified to
the ignition control module. The spark ignitor/flame sense is a component
for the gas pilot with electronic ignition only.
Drain Valve Interlock
Switch (D VI) ................................................ A magnetic reed switch mounted on the manual drain valve that supplies a
drain valve position signal (open/closed) to the cooking control. When
drain valve is open, the drain interlock input to the control is removed. This
prevents the gas burners from coming on with the fry tank empty.

GR SERIES GAS FRYERS - ELECTRICAL OPERATION
KLEENSCREEN FILTER CONTROLS
Filter Power Switch .................................... Supplies 120VAC to pump motor. Filter valve switch or discard valve
switch must be closed (valve handle extended).
Pump Motor ................................................. Operates pump to circulate frying oil through filtering system.
Filter Valve Switch ...................................... Energizes pump motor to filter the frying oil when switch is closed (valve
handle extended). Filter power switch must be turned on. When oil filtering
is complete, close the manual drain valve to the fryer and allow the fry tank
to refill. Return the switch to the N.O. position (valve handle retracted)
when all filtered oil is returned to fry tank.
Discard Valve Switch ................................. Energizes pump motor to discard the frying oil from filter tank when switch
is closed (valve handle extended). Filter power switch must be turned on.
Oil is discarded through the discard hose into a separate container. When
filter tank is empty, return the switch to the N.O. position (valve handle
retracted) when all frying oil is discarded.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Solid State or Computer, Cooking Control
Refer to schematic diagram 7411 for Cooking Control
operation.
FRY CYCLE - LIQUID FRYING OIL
If using solid shortening, the control should be
programmed to use the MELT CYCLE. In the MELT
CYCLE, the control will “cycle” the heat ON/OFF in short
intervals. This will gradually heat and liquefy the
shortening until it reaches a temperature of 135°F. Melt
cycle default times are:
• Liquid (CY L) = 16 sec on, 18 sec off
• Solid (CY S) = 8 sec on, 26 sec off
• No melt (CY 0) = 100% on.
The control then resumes normal operation as
described in this sequence.
1. Conditions.
A. Fryer battery connected to correct supply voltage
and properly grounded.
NOTE: Separate connections are required for the
fryer controls and the filtering system controls.
B. Gas supply valve on and gas combination valve
“knob” turned to on.
C. Power switch to the fryer section in the off
position.
D. Frying oil at proper level in fry tank and below last
set point temperature used.
E. Cooking control is setup properly and ready to
use.
F. Manual drain valve closed (drain valve interlock
switch N.O. is closed).
G. High limit thermostat closed.
2. Press power on switch.
A. Power to terminal 5 (com) on left and right basket
relays.
B. 24VAC transformer 1T energized.
3. Cooking control powers on, initializes and performs a
diagnostic self check.
NOTE: If the control passes self check, then the outputs
are energized and operation sequence continues. If
control does not pass self test, the control will display
the appropriate message for the problem, disable the
keypad and the electronic alarm will sound continuously.
Refer to “TROUBLESHOOTING”.
A. Ignition module is powered (24VAC), initializes
and generates spark at ignitor.
1) Pilot voltage (PV) N.O. contacts close, pilot valve
energized at positive (+) terminal and opens for gas
flow to pilot.
a. Pilot flame established. A micro amp “flame
sense” current is rectified to ignition module
through ignitor cable and sparking stops.
b. Main voltage (MV) N.O. contacts close and
provides ignition status input signal (24VAC) to
cooking control at pin E1-6.
NOTE: If pilot ignition is not established within the
first several seconds of ignition trial time, the
cooking control displays a message indicating
“pilot out” or “ignition failure” as the ignition
module continues to generate a spark at the
ignitor. If pilot is not established within 90 seconds
of the ignition module being energized, the ignition
module locks out power to the gas valve. A
message is displayed by the control indicating
“ignition lockout”; keypad is disabled and the
electronic alarm will sound continuously. The
system remains locked out until the power switch
is cycled to reset the system and re-start the
ignition trial cycle.
4. Cooking control evaluates the input from: Ignition
status at pin E1-6; Drain valve interlock at pin E1-5;
And temperature probe at pins E1-3 and E1-4 (high &
low).
A. If the inputs to the control are valid and the frying
oil temperature is below set point, the heat output
(24VAC) at pin E1-8 is then activated and power is
applied to heat control Triac.
1) Heat control Triac energized and supplies
voltage to gas valve TH terminal.
a. Main gas valve energized and opens for gas
flow to burners.
b. Burners light and begin heating frying oil in fry
tank.
NOTE: As long as the ignition control module
senses a pilot flame, the internal main voltage
(M V) contacts (N.O.) on the ignition module
remain closed, and main gas valve stays on.
5. Frying oil reaches set temperature.
A. Cooking control de-activates the heat output
(24VAC) at pin E1-8 and power is removed from
heat control Triac.
1) Main gas valve de-energized and closes.
a. Gas flow stops and burners go out.

6. Cooking control cycles heat output on frying oil
temperature until power switch is turned off; Ignition
input status is removed; Drain valve interlock input
status is removed; temperature probe input is outside
acceptable limits or a high limit condition occurs.
NOTE: Steps 6A and 6B discuss open high limits. For
additional information on cooking control error
messages, refer to “TROUBLESHOOTING”.
A. If frying oil reaches 415°F or higher, the
cooking control de-activates the heat output and
basket lift outputs, cooking timers are cancelled (if

and the electronic alarm will sound continuously.
Turn power switch off to silence the alarm. Normal
operation resumes when temperature drops below
415°F.
B. If frying oil reaches 450°F, the high limit
thermostat opens, power is removed from the pilot
valve and closes to stop pilot gas flow.
1) Ignition trial cycle will start but pilot will be
unable to light. After several seconds of ignition
trial time, the cooking control displays a
message indicating “pilot out” or “ignition
failure” as the ignition module continues to
generate a spark at the ignitor. After 90
seconds, the ignition module locks out power to
the gas valve. With the ignition status input
removed from cooking control, a message is
displayed by the control indicating “ignition
lockout”; keypad is disabled and the electronic
alarm will sound continuously. Turn power
switch off to silence the alarm and reset the
system. Normal operation will resume when the
temperature drops below 415°F.

GR SERIES GAS FRYERS - TROUBLESHOOTING
SOLID STATE CONTROL
The following alarms take precedence over any other controller mode or function (except drain valve open).
ALARMSDESCRIPTION
OPEN PROBEIf an open probe is detected, the heat demand (heat on) and basket lift
outputs are disabled. Any cooking in progress is cancelled and all
operator buttons are disabled. The display shows “Prob” and the
electronic alarm will sound continuously.
NOTE: A temperature of less than 40°F is an open probe equivalent.
SHORTED PROBEIf a shorted probe is detected, the heat demand (heat on) and basket lift
outputs are disabled. Any cooking in progress is cancelled and all
operator buttons are disabled. The display shows “HI” and the
electronic alarm will sound continuously.
NOTE: A temperature of 460°F or greater is a shorted probe equivalent.
HI TEMPERATUREIf the temperature is greater than or equal to 415°F, the heat demand
(heat on) is disabled. Any cooking in progress is cancelled and all
operator buttons are disabled. The display shows “HI” and the
electronic alarm will sound continuously. Normal fryer operation
resumes when the temperature drops below the high temperature alarm
level.
IGNITION STATUSIf this input is not active (24VAC = active), the display will show “FIrE”
“OUt” (for gas pilot out). If the input remains inactive for greater than 90
seconds, the display will show “Ign” “LoC” (for ignition lockout), the
electronic alarm will sound continuously, and the controller will be
disabled (all outputs including heat demand off) until power is cycled.
DRAIN VALVE INTERLOCK (DVI)When drain valve is opened, the DVI switch contacts open, and the
24VAC input to the controller is removed. The heat demand (heat on)
and basket lift outputs are disabled. Any cooking in progress is
cancelled and all operator buttons are disabled. The display will
alternate between “drn” “tUrn” “oFF” for 3 seconds each in a continuous
loop.
When the drain valve is closed, the DVI switch contacts close, and the
24VAC input to the controller is restored. The heat demand (heat on)
and all operator buttons will remain disabled; and the display will
alternate between “tUrn” “oFF” for 3 seconds each in a continuous loop
until power is cycled.
