Multiple Nozzle Fryer Protection – Tilt Skillet / Braising Pan
Protection for tilt skillets or braising pans is to be based upon the
coverage limitations provided for deep fat fryer protection. Refer
to Section IV, DESIGN, starting on Page 4-10, for maximum fryer
nozzle coverages and maximum fryer nozzle height limitations.
Although the maximum 864 in.
2
(55741 mm
2
) total surface
cooking area requirement applies to fryer protection, it does not
apply to tilt skillets or braising pans.
Each tilt skillet/braising pan protected module must not exceed
the fryer limitations for “MAXIMUM SIZE MODULE OVERALL
WITH DRIPBOARD” coverage per nozzle as described in Table
on Page 4-11.
Tilt skillets and braising pans generally utilize a hinged cover.
Fryer protection nozzles are to be placed toward the front of the
appliance to minimize the potential for the tilt skillet or braising
pan cover to interfere with the nozzle discharge. See Figures
4-25 and 4-26.
