SUFF/UFF FILTRATION SYSTEMS
CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT INFORMATION
2-1
2.1 General
Multi-batteried frying systems can come equipped with the Under Fryer Filter (UFF) system. Single
fryers can come equipped with the Single Under Fryer Filter (SUFF) system. Filter design varies
according to the model of the fryer/frying system.
Oil or shortening is drained from the fryer into the filter pan, then pumped back into the frypot by
means of oil-return plumbing built into the fryer.
Filtering is accomplished with one sheet of replaceable filter paper and filter powder, or by means of
a filter-leaf assembly (see photos below).
CAUTION
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of
the inherent dangers of operating a hot oil filter system, particularly the aspects of
oil filtration, and draining/cleaning procedures.

Information on the rating plate includes model and serial numbers, as well as electrical requirements.
Have the rating plate information handy when communicating with the factory about a unit or
requesting special parts or information. Without this information, proper identification of the unit
cannot be confirmed.
