1.5 Equipment Description
Pro H55 Series high-efficiency gas fryers employ a unique infrared burner system that uses up to
43% less energy to cook the same volume as conventional open-burner fryers. Models in this series
include PH55, FMPH55, and FPPH55 variants. PH55 models have no built-in filtration system.
FPPH55 models have a built-in FootPrint Pro filtration system located under the leftmost two fryers
in a battery. FMPH55 models also have a built-in FootPrint Pro filtration system under the leftmost
two stations of a battery. The difference between FPPH55s and FMPH55s is that FPPH55s have no
holding stations (i.e., the battery consists only of fryers) while the FMPH55s have a holding station
at one of the positions in the battery. For example, an FPPH355 consists of three fryers with built-in
filtration; an FMH355, by comparison, consists of two fryers and one holding station with built-in
filtration. A PH355 consists of three fryers without built-in filtration.
All Pro H55 Series Gas fryers are of an open-frypot design with no tubes and have a hand-sized
opening into the deep cold zone, which makes cleaning the stainless frypot quick and easy.
Heating is supplied by a pair of infrared burner assemblies mounted on each side of the frypot.
Combustion air for the burners is supplied by a dedicated blower mounted on the front of the frypot.
Pro H55 Series Gas fryers can be configured for natural gas, propane (LP), or manufactured gas, as
required by the customer.
Each frypot is equipped with a temperature probe for precise temperature control.
All Pro H55 Series Gas fryers come standard with electronic ignition, melt cycle and boil-out mode.
Control options include Computer Magic III.5 computers, solid-state (analog) controllers, digital
controllers, and basket lift timers.
All fryers in this series require an external source of AC electrical power. Units can be configured
for voltages ranging from 100 VAC to 240 VAC.
FMPH55 and FPPH55 fryers are shipped completely assembled. PH55 fryers may require
installation of legs or optional casters at the point of use. All fryers are shipped with a package of
standard accessories. Each fryer is adjusted, tested, and inspected at the factory before crating for
shipment.
