CONSTRUCTION
Welded tank with an extra smooth peened finish ensures
easy cleaning.
Long-lasting, high-temperature alloy stainless steel heat
baffles are mounted in the heat exchanger tubes to provide
maximum heating and combustion efficiency.
Standing pilot light design provides a ready flame when heat
is required.

CONTROLS
Millivolt thermostat maintains selected temperature
automatically between 200qF (93qC) and 400qF (190qC-CE).
Integrated gas control valve acts as a manual and pilot valve,
automatic pilot valve, gas filter, pressure regulator, and
automatic main valve.
Gas control valve prevents gas flow to the main burner until
pilot is established and shuts off all gas flow automatically if
the pilot flame goes out.
Temperature limit switch safely shuts off all gas flow if the
fryer temperature exceeds the upper limit.
New Solstice burner/baffle design.***
-Increases cooking production.
-Lowers flue temperature.
-Improves working environment.
-Generates more production per BTU.
***Compared to previous models.
OPERATIONS
