NOTE: The Frymaster FQG30-T fryer requires a start-up, demonstration and training before
normal restaurant operations can begin.
1.1 General
Read the instructions in this manual thoroughly before attempting to operate this equipment. This
manual covers all configurations of models and FQG30-T fryers. Models designated with FQG30-T
are equipped with built-in filtration systems. The fryers in this model family have most parts in
common, and when discussed as a group, will be referred to as FQG30-T fryers.
The FQG30-T fryers feature a low oil volume frypot, top-off (manual or optional auto), automatic
filtration and a touch screen. The design incorporates a large round drain which ensures that fries
and other debris will be washed into the filter pan. The FQG30-T fryers are controlled with an
FQ4000 touchscreen controller. Fryers in this series come in full- or split-vat arrangements, and can
be purchased in batteries of up to five vats.
FQG30-T high-efficiency gas fryers employ a unique infrared burner system that uses up to 43% less
energy to cook the same volume as conventional open-burner fryers.
FQG30-T gas fryers are of an open-frypot design with no tubes, which makes cleaning the stainless
frypot quick and easy.
Heating is supplied by a pair of infrared burner assemblies mounted on each side of the frypot. A
dedicated blower mounted on the front of the frypot supplies combustion air for the burners.
FQG30-T Gas fryers can be configured for natural gas or propane (LP) gas, as required by the
customer.
Each frypot is equipped with a temperature probe for precise temperature control.
All fryers in this series require an external source of AC electrical power. Units can be configured
for voltages ranging from 100 VAC to 250 VAC.
FQG30-T fryers are shipped completely assembled. All fryers are shipped with a package of
standard accessories. Each fryer is adjusted, tested, and inspected at the factory before crating for
shipment.
This appliance is only for professional use and shall be used by qualified personnel only, as
defined in Section 1.6.
