Frymaster computers have been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digi- tal device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. While these devices are verified as Class A devices, they have been shown to meet the Class B limits. - Page 11 After the unit has been positioned in the area where it will be used, ensure the following has been accomplished before connecting the unit to the gas supply: 1. Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of this equipment without depending upon the gas line connections.

Page 12: Connecting To The Gas Supply
Connecting to the Gas Supply GAS CONNECTIONS AND PIPE SIZES The size of the gas supply pipe is very important. If the pipe is too small, the gas pressure at the burner manifold will be low. This will cause slow recovery and delayed ignition. The incoming gas supply line should be a minimum of 1½... -

NOTE: The unit comes from the factory configured to display in degrees Fahrenheit. To toggle back and forth between Fahrenheit and Celsius, press the Celsius/Fahrenheit display switch. 2. The controller will automatically cycle the burners on and off seven times or until the tempera- ture in the cookpot reaches 160°F (71°C), whichever comes first. - Page 16 To ensure that the cookpot is free of any contamination resulting from its manufacture, shipping, and handling during installation, the cookpot must be boiled out before first use. 1. Close the drain valve and fill the cookpot with a solution of cold water and 1 cup of Frymaster FRYER ‘N’ GRIDDLE cleaner or detergent.

5. Reinstall tube and bend so that the opening is pointing downward. Check Burner Manifold Pressure WARNING Frymaster recommends that this task be performed by the local gas company or an authorized service technician only. 1. Ensure that the gas valve knob is in the OFF position. - Page 21 Burner Manifold Gas Pressures Pressure 3.5" W.C. Natural 0.8 kPa 8.25" W.C. 2.5 kPa 4. If necessary, adjust the burner gas pressure by removing the cap from the gas valve regulator and turning the regulator screw to obtain the correct pressure. When the correct pressure is obtained, reinstall the cap.

FBR18 & FBRA18 SERIES GAS RETHERMALIZERS CHAPTER 6: SERVICE PROCEDURES Functional Description These rethermalizers contain a welded stainless steel cookpot that is directly heated by a high effi- ciency burner system requiring approximately 43% less energy than conventional burner systems to heat the same volume of water. -

guished), current to the ignition module is cut, preventing the main valve from opening, and the igni- tion module “locks out” until the power switch is turned off and then back on. A probe monitors the temperature in the cookpot. When the programmed setpoint temperature is reached, resistance in the probe causes the heat cycle circuitry in the controller to cut off current flow through the heat relay. -
Page 30: Temperature Probe
The relays in earlier design boards are soldered on and cannot be replaced. Later design boards fea- ture replaceable plug-in relays. In earlier designs boards, a heat relay (K2) switches 24VAC to the ignition and gas valve circuits when the controller heat logic circuit calls for heat. Simultaneously, a blower motor relay (K4) switches 120VAC to the blower motor. -
Page 31: Accessing The Rethermalizer For Servicing
the upper water level sensor causes the water relay (K2) to open. This cuts power to the water sole- noid valve, which closes, cutting off water flow into the cookpot. Accessing the Rethermalizer for Servicing DANGER Moving a rethermalizer filled with hot water may cause spilling or splattering of the hot water. -

7. Remove the two upper screws securing the component box to the rethermalizer. Rotate the box forward and outward to expose the 12-pin connector on the rear of the interface board, and un- plug it from the board. 4. On FBRA18 models only, mark the water level sensor wires and disconnect them from terminals J1-1 (upper sensor) and J1-2 (lower sensor). -

knowledge of possible problems, and the probable causes of each. With this knowledge, the techni- cian should be able to isolate and correct any problem encountered. Problems that are likely to be encountered can be grouped into five broad categories: 1. - Page 37 tion failure situation may be encountered in which all components appear to be serviceable and the microamp reading is within specification, but the unit nevertheless goes into ignition failure during operation. The probable cause in this case is an intermittent failure of an ignition module. When the unit is opened up for troubleshooting, the module cools down enough to operate correctly, but when the unit is again closed up and placed back into service, the module heats up and fails.
- Page 38 If popping is consistent during all hours of operation, the most likely cause is an insufficient air sup- ply. Check for “negative pressure” conditions in the kitchen area. If air is flowing into the kitchen area, this indicates that more air is being exhausted than is being replenished, and the burners may be starved for air.

6.7.3 Improper Temperature Control Temperature control is a function of several interrelated components, each of which must operate correctly. The principle component is the temperature probe. Other components include the inter- face board, the water level sensors (on FBRA18 units), the controller, and the ignition module. Whatever the cause, the symptom is failure of the unit to attain or maintain setpoint temperature. -
