High-Effi ciency Gas High-Limit Thermostat The high-limit breaks voltage to the gas valve, prevent- ing the fryer from dangerously overheating. It acts as a normally closed switch, which opens when exposed to temperatures above 425°F ±12°F / 218°C ±7°C. The high-limit automatically resets when the oil temperature drops below 350°F / 177°C.

High-Effi ciency Gas Before Replacing a Frypot A frypot should be closely examined before removing it for leaking. The problem may be the seal of a probe or high-limit. Probe replacement missteps lead to future leaks. The port for a high-limit or probe should be thoroughly cleaned before install- ing the new component.

Electric Fryers Interface Boards The electric fryer interface board is similar to interface boards on the H.E. gas fryers. LED indicators aid in troubleshooting, and the board acts as a common junction for the fryer’s electrical components. Unlike the gas version, the electric board includes an additional relay for the latching circuit.
Page 39
Electric Fryers Components Contactors A latching contactor and a heating contactor control power to the elements. The latching contactor engages when the main power switch is turned on and the hi-limit and drain switches are closed. The heating (or cycling) contactor energizes as the controller calls for heat. If the high-limit thermostat or the drain safety switch is open, power is cut to the coil of the latching relay.
