MF90 SERIES PORTABLE FILTRATION SYSTEMS
CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT INFORMATION
2-2
2.1 General (cont.)
The used oil may be drained by gravity from the fryer into the filter pan (MF90 "U" models), or
removed from the fryer by use of a suction/return hose (MF90 "AU" models). On "AU" models, the
oil is pumped back into the frypot using the same suction/return hose.
Oil or shortening is filtered through filter paper. Filter powder, which enhances the filtering process,
is distributed over the paper prior to filtering.
All units are shipped completely assembled with accessories packed inside the filter pan. All units
are adjusted, tested and inspected at the factory before shipment.
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of
the inherent dangers of operating a hot oil filter system, particularly the aspects of
oil filtration, and draining/cleaning procedures.
A 7-amp (115V-domestic) or 5-amp (230V-international) circuit breaker installed on the filter unit
switches the power OFF if an overload occurs.
NOTE: If the circuit breaker is triggered, depress the reset button to activate the circuit after the
failure has been detected and repaired.
2.2 Rating Plate
Information on the rating plate includes model and serial numbers, as well as electrical requirements.
The rating plate is located on the back housing, near the electrical receptacle. Have the rating plate
information handy when communicating with the factory about a unit or requesting special parts or
information. Without this information, proper identification of the unit cannot be confirmed.
2.3 Pre-Installation
NOTE: Failure to use qualified service personnel will void the Dean warranty.
A.
Standards: Use of this filter unit must be in accordance with all applicable state and local
