CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
This manual covers all configurations of models H14/H17/H22, including filtration options and
triac-equipped (solid-state relays) models. H14, H17 and H22 fryers have many parts in common,
and when discussed as a group, will be referred to as “Common Electric” fryers.
Common Electric fryers feature deep cold-zones and easy to clean, open frypots with tilt-up
elements. Control options available for these fryers include Computer Magic III (CM III)
computers, basket lift timers, digital controllers, and solid state (analog) controllers. Fryers in this
series may be configured as full- or split-pot, and can be purchased as single units or grouped in
batteries of up to six fryers.
