CHAPTER 12: OIL FILTRATION (Surface Ship Only)
12-3
13. Return filter pan to cabinet.
14. Skim large particles from the vat to be
filtered.
14. With the oil at operating temperature and
the fryer off, open valve of vat to be drained.
Caution: the oil is at or near operating
temperature during filtering. Fig: 12-14, 16
16. Snap the power shower into the frypot
connection. Fig: 12-15
17. For fryers with rear flush option, engage
the control lever to select rear flush. This
will wash sediment from the bottom of the
frypot.
18. Turn the filter pump on. Fig: 12-17
19. The oil is pumped back into the frypot. If
polishing of the oil is desired, allow pump to
run with the drain valve open for no more than
five minutes.
20. At the end of the filter process, close the
drain and allow the pump to run as the oil fills
up the frypot.
21. When the filter pan empties, air will be pumped into the frypot, causing the oil in the frypot to bubble.
Allow bubbling to continue 15 to 20 seconds before shutting off
filter pump. This action ensures the oil-return lines are clear of
oil.
22. Remove Power Shower. Fig: 12-15
