Constructed of our laser cut, heavy-duty stainless steel and tested to meet your exacting requirements for Tortilla Chip Frying.

Conveying System Features

• Synchroinized stainless steel inlet paddle gently distribute the chips and convey them to the submerger belt
• Submerger belt with paddles
• Separate A/C inverter drive systems control paddle/submerger and discharge belts independently
• External motorized fines drim and discharge conveyor with programmable air pulse to discharge fines
• Stainless steel mesh discharge belts supported with rotary style bearings to eliminate belt wear and reduce maintenance

Main Oil Circulation Features

• High-velocity centrifugal pump continuously circulates oil through the fryer and heat exchanger
• Fines are held in suspension and removed as 100% of the circulating oil passes through the fines removal belt

Drive Features

• Both padle/submerger and discharge belts have variable speed A/C inverter drive systems

Cooker Features

• Fryer design utlizes minimum oil to achieve rapid oil turnover with precision cooking
• Unique large-volume oil distribution inlet manifold with easily removable clean out provides even distribution of flow over full width of fryer
• Internal cooking kettle dam creates constant oil level and eliminates surges
• Auto level control to replenish oil as needed
• Unique design of sumbmerger converyor frame prevents warpage
• Kettle design allows submergin of all conveyor components to simplify clean up
• Motorized fines removal system continuously removes foreign matter, extending oil quality
• Magnetic starter with control circuit for oil vapor exhaust
• U.L. approved control and disconnect boxes.

Heat Exchanger Features

• 87% efficient transfer of flame heat to oil (individual operator conditions may vary results)
• Stack mounted safety high stack temperature shutdown sensor (shutdown may require manual resetting as well as the flame management system)
• Alarm horn with silence button for the burner shutdown
• Door-mounted inciating lights for power on, burner on, alarm, main fuel and flame failrue reset switch
• Internally mounted flame safety with descriptive messaages indicating type of failure with door-mounted reset button and UV flame sensor
• High pressure and low differential pressure switches for low fluid flow safety shutdown
• Bypass style check valve facilitates cleaning
• Low combustion air safety shutdown switch
