CHAPTER 4: FILTER OPERATION
4.1 General
The Dean Portable Filters are designed to operate primarily as an independent filter unit.
Operations always start by ensuring the unit is properly plugged in, then rolling the filter to
the fryer to be filtered. The filter will work directly under the fryers’ drain valves. The
general layout of a generic MF90 Series Portable Filter System with major components
identified is illustrated below.
