    GF14/GF40 SERIES GAS FRYERS CHAPTER 1: SERVICE PROCEDURES NOTE: This manual is to be used in conjunction with the GF14/GF40 Installation and Operation Manual (P/N 819-8887). Be sure to have both manuals on hand when making service calls. Functional Description The GF14 and GF40 Series fryers contain a welded steel (stainless or cold-rolled) frypot that is directly heated by gas flames that are diffused evenly over its lower surface by deflectors.

    Pilot Ignition System The pilot ignition system is made up of the pilot orifice, pilot hood, and a thermopile. The pilot serves two purposes: lighting the burner and heating the thermopile. In operation, the thermopile is in contact with the pilot flame and generates millivolts. The millivolt output passes through a normally closed high-limit switch and energizes the gas valve pilot coil, which in turn opens the pilot valve.

    Refer to Quarterly Checks and Services in Chapter 4 of the Installation and Operation manual. Checking the Burner Manifold Pressure Refer to Semi-Annual Checks and Services in Chapter 4 of the Installation and Operation manual. Adjusting Deflector Spacing and Alignment DANGER Drain the frypot or remove the handle from the drain valve before proceeding further.

    4. Leaking The probable causes and corrective actions for each category are discussed in the following sections. 1.8.1 Pilot Failures Pilot failures fall into one or the other of two categories – failure to light or failure to remain lit. Pilot Fails to Light 1.
  • Page 15 Section 1.7. If the flame is being blown away from the pilot, eliminate the draft that is causing it to be blown away from the thermopile. If the pilot flame correctly impinges the tip of the thermopile, connect a multimeter in series with either of the thermopile leads and its gas valve terminal.
  • Page 16 1.8.3 Improper Temperature Control (i.e., failure to control at set point) Temperature control is a function of several interrelated components, each of which must operate correctly. The principle component, however, is the thermostat. The thermostat should be checked periodically. Causes for temperature control problems are damage to the thermostat bulb, kinking of the capillary tube, and broken or loose wiring.
