RELIGHTING
WARNING:
In the event of a main burner ignition failure, a five minute purge period must be observed priot to
reestablishing the ignition source .
1 . Shut off all gas .
2 . Wait five minutes.
3 . Follow the “Lighting” procedure as described on pg. 9.
AUTOMATIC PILOT VALVE
The automatic pilot valve provides an automatic safety shutoff for the fryer when the pilot flame
is extinguished. When the pilot flame is burning, the valve is held open electromagnetically by the
electrical current from a thermopile in the pilot flame. When the pilot flame goes out, generation of
current ceases and the valve closes automatically.
HIGH LIMIT CONTROL
CPG Floor Fryers are equipped with a secondary heat control that prevents the oil temperature from
rising above 450ºF (Because of the accuracy tolerance of the sensor, the oil temperature may reach as
high as 475ºF).
In the event the fryer shuts down due to this condition, the oil must be cooled to below 400ºF before
the pilot burner can be re-ignited. When the oil has cooled, use the “Lighting” procedure on pg. 9 to
restore functionality . If the problem persists, contact your CPG Service Representative or the CPG
Service Department .
