NAVY SURFACE SHIP ELECTRIC FRYERS
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
Read the instructions in this manual thoroughly before attempting to operate this equipment. This
manual covers all configurations of Navy Surface Ship Electric Fryer models specifically configured
for use aboard surface ships of the U.S. Navy, including H14SC/H17SC/H22SC kW and FPH17SC
kW filtration system models. The fryers in this model family have most parts in common, and when
discussed as a group, will be referred to as “Navy Surface Ship Electric” fryers.
Although similar in appearance to the Footprint III family of Navy Electric fryers, the Navy Surface
Ship Electric fryers feature a significantly different built-in filtration system. Other features,
including the deep cold-zones and open frypots with tilt-up elements remain essentially unchanged.
All Navy fryers are equipped with solid-state analog controllers. Fryers in this series can be single
units or grouped in batteries of two or more fryers.
