Frymaster is rolling out a new fryer, the Generation III Low Oil Volume, or LOV, gas fryer with the
easyTouch™ Touch Screen for McDonald’s to North and South America.
The new fryer, BIGLA30-T, is a revised version of the current
LOV unit with a new, easy to use touch screen. The M4000
touch screen controller is a more intuitive than its predecessor,
the M3000. The electronics have been updated. The current
interface board has been replaced by an SIB (Smart Interface
Board). The MIB and ATO board have been replaced by a single
FIB (Filtration Interface Board) that is present in the former ATO
box (now the FIB box). A power supply has replaced the former
transformer in the FIB (ATO) box. The AIF boards have been
replaced with a VIB (Valve Interface Board) which has new
connectors. The actuators have new improved connectors than
the actuators for the existing LOV fryer. The system has
additional communication networks in addition to CAN. There
is an easily accessible reset switch on the fryer, which eases
reboots of the control system. These fryers have the option for
the onboard oil quality sensor.
A successful introduction of this fryer to the McDonald’s network, will hinge on the training the
restaurant staff receives from our service network. It is important to McDonald’s, that the installer
should take the time, to ensure the staff is adequately trained on
ALL
points outlined on the
NEW
commission and demonstration form. A well performed commission should take up to two (2)
hours. We will pay actual time up to two (2) hours for commission, per fryer system (fry or protein
station). A well performed demonstration should take up to two (2) hours. We will pay actual time
for up to an additional two (2) hours for one (1) demonstration (training) per store.
The training will include, among other items:
Demonstration of the M4000 Touch Screen controller and its cooking and filtering functions.
Demonstration of the JIB system.
Demonstration of the automatic top-off system.
Demonstration of the automatic filtration.
Frymaster regional managers are currently conducting field technical training sessions on the
revised fryers for our FAS network.
