Inspecting and Cleaning the Pressure System Tubing

Some locations may choose to do this procedure on a more frequent basis (i.e., quarterly, semi-annually, or other frequency).

To avoid severe burns, do not attempt to remove any of the pressure system tubing while the fryer is in use.Only perform this procedure when the fryer is cool and disconnected from the power source.

Ensure the pressure system tubing is undamaged and working within specification by doing the following:

  1. Remove the service access panel.

  2. Loosen all compression nuts on the pressure system tubing.

  3. Remove pressure tubing manifold and clean or replace.

  4. Remove the clean out plug.

  5. Clean from the vat outlet through to the clean out port.

  6. Clean tubing from the condensation box to the solenoid valve.

  7. Clean tubing from the safety relief to the pressure tubing manifold.

  8. Remove and clean the solenoid valve.

  9. Replace the solenoid valve and all tubing.

  10. Reinstall the coil on the solenoid valve.

  11. Continue to the next inspection or reinstall components as applicable.

All tubing should be completely free from build up or obstruction.
