Operation and Care Manual #8452/53/55 • 3
NOTE: Wire gauge, insulation type and temperature rating, as
well as type, size, and construction of conduit, must meet
or exceed applicable specifications of local codes of the
National Electrical Code.
4. Fryers are shipped from the factory wired for 3-phase
service. Refer to 3-phase wiring diagram included with this
fryer, and verify that field wiring conforms to this diagram.
NOTE: Fryers are field convertible to 1-phase. If single phase
operation is required, refer to the 3-phase to 1-phase
instructions included with the fryer, and verify that both
internal wiring and field wiring conform to the included
single-phase wiring diagram.
IMPORTANT: Fryer Models VAE-55 and VAE-55FS units MUST
NOT BE CONVERTED TO SINGLE PHASE
OPERATION
. Conversion of these units to single
phase operation invalidates the UL listing and
voids the warranty.
FIRE HAZARD
The fire suppression system must be charged and
maintained by an authorized Ansul
®
distributor.
Do not attempt to modify or bypass the fire
suppression system. An uncontrolled fire can
cause serious injury or death.
IMPORTANT
1.
The fire extinguisher system must be set up and charged by
an authorized Ansul
®
distributor.
2. The fryer is equipped with a manual pull station at the lower
rear of the left side of the fryer. The manual pull station
must be in a line of egress from the fryer. If the fryer is
installed such that the factory installed location of the
manual pull station is not in a line of egress, an additional
remote pull station may be required by local codes. Any
remote manual pull station must be installed by an
authorized Ansul distributor in accordance with the
authority having jurisdiction.
BURN HAZARD • SPILLED OIL
The additional remote pull station must not be
installed on the front and/or sides of the fryer,
forward of the ventilator side panels. Dis-charge
of the fire suppression system into hot oil will
cause hot foam to spill over the frypot. Serious
burns may result from this spillage and
slipping and/or falling could result.
NOTE: If a remote manual pull station is installed, moving the
fryer for servicing may cause the Ansul system to
discharge. In this case, the unit must only be installed
with four fixed legs (i.e., remove rear casters and replace
with legs). Additional legs may be ordered through an
authorized service agency.
3. The fire suppression system is comprised of a pressurized
container of Ansulex
®
R-102 liquid fire suppression media,
with associated plumbing and controls. It utilizes two
fusible links for automatic actuation, and a manual pull
station for manual actuation. Two nozzles are used to
disperse the dry chemical fire suppression media.
NOTE: If the fire suppression system is discharged, a buzzer will
sound continuously. The fryer will remain inoperable
until the fire suppression system is serviced, recharged
and reset by an authorized Ansul
®
distributor.
Charging of the fire suppression system must be in
accordance with Ansul
®
Design, Installation, Recharge and
Maintenance Manual #418086.
4. When the fire suppression system discharges, the fryer
heating element(s) and controls are de-energized, and the fire
suppression media is discharged. The fire suppression
media will form an emulsion designed to both smother and
cool the oil.
The primary 450°F fusible link is located on the frypot. This link
will melt and discharge the fire suppression system should both
the temperature control thermostat and the high limit control fail.
The secondary 280°F fusible link is located in the filter plenum,
and will protect against a fire in the plenum. Either link melting
will discharge the fire suppression media through both nozzles,
and cause a buzzer to sound.
NOTE: Exclusive Anti-Fire System....If the hi-limit detector fails
and the oil temperature climbs above the safety limit, the
fire suppression system will discharge, cooling the oil
below the oil's (approximately) 540°F auto-ignition
temperature, and preventing a fire from occurring.
