2.7 Air Supply and Ventilation (cont.)
D. Do not place the fryer’s flue outlet directly into the plenum of the hood, as it will affect the
gas combustion of the fryer.
E. Never
use the interior of the fryer cabinet for storage or store items on shelving over or
behind the fryer. Exhaust temperatures can exceed 800°F (427°C) and may damage or melt
items stored in or near the fryer.
F. Adequate distance must be maintained from the flue outlet of the fryer(s) to the lower edge
of the filter bank. Per NFPA Standards No. 96, a minimum of 18 in. (45 cm) should be
maintained between the flue(s) and the lower edge of the exhaust hood filter.
G. Filters and drip troughs should be part of any industrial hood, but consult local codes before
constructing and installing any hood. The duct system, the exhaust hood and the filter bank
must be cleaned on a regular basis and kept free of grease.
2.8 Equipment Installed at High Altitudes
A. The fryer input rating (BTU/hr) is for elevations up to 2,000 ft (610 m). For elevations
above 2,000 ft (610m), the rating should be reduced four percent for each additional 1,000 ft
(305m) above sea level.
B. The correct orifices are installed at the factory if operating altitude is known at time of the
customer’s order.
