  • Page 19: Functional Description

    Functional Description FQG30-T Series gas fryers contain a welded stainless steel frypot that is directly heated by a high efficiency infrared burner system, requiring approximately 43% less energy than conventional burners to cook the same volume. Self-contained combustion chambers (referred to as “burners”) are fitted into rails attached to the sides of the frypot, one on each side.

  • Page 25: Thermostats

    Thermostats The fryers are equipped with temperature probes located on the front centerline of each frypot (dual-vat frypots have two probes, one in each vat). In this type of thermostat, the probe resistance varies directly with the temperature. That is, as the temperature rises, so does resistance, at a rate of approximately 2 ohms for every 1º F. Circuitry in the controller monitors the probe resistance and controls burner firing when the resistance exceeds or falls below programmed temperatures (set points).
  • Page 26 Insert the fitting for a gas pressure-measuring device into the pressure tap hole. On non-CE fryers only, place the gas valve in the ON position. Place the fryer power switch in the ON position. When the burner has lit and burned steadily for at least one minute, compare the gas pressure reading to the pressure for the corresponding gas in the appropriate table on the following page.

  • Page 27: Measuring Flame Current

    Flame Sensor Wire 1.13 Measuring Flame Current When the burner flame is properly adjusted, it will produce a current between 2.0A and 2.5A on Fenwal modules. Lockouts can occur at currents 0.5A or below on Fenwal modules. Flame current is measured by placing a microamp (NOT milliamp) meter in series with the sensing wire on the ignitor.

  • Page 39: Heating (Ignition) Failure

    1.15.1 Heating (Ignition) Failure Heating (ignition) failure occurs when the ignition module fails to sense a flame within the 4-second time delay period and locks out. When this happens, the module sends 24 VAC through the interface board alarm circuit to the controller.

  • Page 40: Improper Burner Function

    1.15.2 Improper Burner Function With problems in this category, the burner ignites but exhibits abnormal characteristics such as “popping,” dark spots on the burner ceramics, fluctuating flame intensity, and flames shooting out of the flue. “Popping” indicates delayed ignition. In this condition, the main gas valve is opening but the burner is not immediately lighting.

  • Page 41: Improper Temperature Control

    Occasionally a burner may apparently be operating correctly, but nevertheless the fryer has a slow recovery rate (the length of time required for the fryer to increase the oil temperature from 250ºF to 300ºF (121ºC to 149ºC)). The primary causes of this include an over-filled frypot, a dirty or out-of-adjustment combustion air blower, low burner manifold pressure, and/or damaged burner tiles.

  • Page 43: Troubleshooting The 24 Vac Circuit

    1.16.1 Troubleshooting the 24 VAC Circuit Prior to checking for problems associated with the 24 VAC circuit, ensure that the unit is connected to a power supply, and the controller is on and is calling for heat (heat indicator appears and displays PRE-HEAT). NOTE: All voltage measurements must be made within 4 seconds of the unit calling for heat.

  • Page 44: Troubleshooting The Gas Valve

    1.16.2 Troubleshooting the Gas Valve Prior to checking for problems associated with the gas valve, ensure that the unit is calling for heat. Also, for non-CE units, verify that the gas valve is in the ON position. The following processes will assist you in troubleshooting the gas valve and ruling it out as a probable cause: If 24 VAC is not present across gas valve main coil, the probable cause is the 24 VAC circuit.
