When ordering, please supply the Model Number, Serial Number, Part Number, Description, plus
Finish, Type of Gas and Electrical Characteristics, as applicable.

FRY POT IDENTIFICATION AND ORDERING INFORMATION:
If the second digit from left on the serial number (plate located inside cabinet door) is “0” the tank
is colded-rolled. If the second digit is a “4” the tank is stainless. The stainless can be further iden-
tified by applying a magnet to the bottom of the tank. The magnet will not hold on stainless, but
will be attracted by cold-rolled.
There is a five-year warranty from date of installation on the stainless tanks (2nd thru 5th year covers
replacement part f.o.b. factory only -
1st year covers parts and labor) and a one-year warranty on
cold-rolled.
14” AND 18” TANKS:
The 14” pots have 4 flame tubes and the 18” pots have 5 flame tubes.
OLD STYLE AND NEW STYLE !lXNKSz
There are both “old style” and “new style” tanks in the field. They are not interchangeable. If the
fifth digit of the serial number is a “5” through “9”, this indicates that it is probably an “old” type
frypot. If the fifth digit is a “6” through “4”, this probably indicates a “new” frypot. If there is any
question, measure the distance from the top of the drain - with the drain shutoff valve removed
- to the bottom of the pilot bracket. This distance on the “old” tank is 3%. The distance on the new
style tank is 2%“. In addition, almost all new style tanks have a small protruding drain tap to the
left of the main drain for a filter attachment. When ordering a replacement frypot, please indicate
whether it is an ‘old” style or “‘new” style tank in addition to the part number
BAFFLES:
All replacement tanks being shipped have baffles that can be identified by a piece that stands straight
up in the center of the flame tube. These baffles are tack-welded to keep them in place during ship-
ment. There is no problem if they should happen to come loose. These baffles are replaceable if they
should burn out. They are Part Number 1163551 and may be ordered from our Parts Department.
Replacement baffles should not be welded in place; merely insert in the center of the flame tube.
